The (not so old) Crocks Cafe

The_Dragon

Okay I need lots of hot drinks, possibly laced with something! I woke up this morning with absolutely no voice (oy! stop cheering in the back ground there - I can hear you, you know!).

I currently look like a hamster on steroids!

Okay Dragon, hot whiskey liberally laced with lemon and honey, coming up.

You just sit by the fire and make yourself comfortable

*throws another log on, and give Dragon a fleecy blanket*

*decides to make a hot alcoholic drink for herself aswell, on Carbonel's advice*

Right, I'll just give the place a quick spruce up before the weekend...No doubt the saturday and sunday brigade will be in for the "specials" - can't have the place looking a mess can we ....

Don't tell Alto about the state of the oven.... he'll have us in on the night shift to clean it..........

Wow! is everyone alright?

Oh Ally, what a fright! Here's your Bailey's coffee, you have a sit down by the fire and settle yourself down (don't get too close to Dragon, it could be catching )

Alto, don't touch that yogurt.... I'm trying to grow blue cheese.... :eek:

Glad you are ok Ally-so sad for the family who lost home.
I am shattered-been doing too much and paying for it now-fibro is a real pain in all senses.Need a stiff drink caring for SIL is emotionally hard at moment-she is so forgetful-we had new fireplace and fire yesterday and everytime she comes into the room she goes"wow what a lovely new fire" it was amusing in a coping mechanism way to start with but wearing now!!sorry to winge-very tird-an early night will help-and a stiff drink first!

Dragon, yes everyone is fine, thanks. We've had a spate of arson attacks in our town. Sometimes it's like being in Beirut! We take fire safety seriously as my partner lost a home to fire as a child. We kinda hoped that would be our one and only encounter with it.

We're going to a firework display tomorrow night so fingers crossed that goes off safely.
