25 Sep 06 - 04:59 AM (#1842675) Subject: BS: Mudcat Tavern Equinoctal Festival From: Liz the Squeak Bert's card is still holding good, there's a tinge of Autumn in the air and I'm bored rigid already today... so let's open up this tavern again and celebrate the Equinox - Vernal or Autumnal, depending on your hemisphere - Ramadan, Rosh Hashanah, 82 days til Christmas, Sloe crop or harvest festival.... The Tavern has been refitted since that terrible accident over Bank Holiday.... you'd think the clientele here would know not to do that with the squid..... the jello pit has been remodelled into a classy sunken bath, complete with jacuzzi fittings again, bubble bath on tap and muscle rub lotion on the side. There's a comfy little nook by the fireplace, just right for Seamus and the Captain (chains provided) and a lovely selection of rustic tables and comfy chairs for the singers. Thanks to the explosion, there's a new roof with better accoustics over the players area, and just behind the settle there is the storage unit for banjos. It leads directly round to the fireplace so they'll be kept nice and warm for you..... There's an improvement in the bathrooms too.... The stalls are that little bit wider so you don't bang your elbows, they're made of that write on/wipe off stuff so the grafitti won't get stale (please use pens provided) and the fire extinguishers now work. I did try and get some of those scent squirters that make it smell nice in there, but it seems that urinals come with that 'cowpat fresh' smell already built in. Ah well, at least the HazMat team survived. Mostly... So... pull yourself a beer, settle in a chair and get ready to celebrate Michaelmas. Cheers! LTS |

The aquarium, now moved out back behind the bar, await's the arrival of it's squid guest. Hopefully that is the last appearance of jello for a while. . . Anyone have any salmon? |

My Michaelmas daisies are actually true to their name this year (last year they were over and done by my birthday), a delicate pale purple, they look stunning against the green and gold ivy behind them. Well, they did til the cat rolled over them. It's also a quarter day - the year is 3/4s over and it was traditional for country people to change jobs at this time. Quite often, this meant moving house too, to a new farm or area. So... to celebrate this, I'm moving from my seat by the door to that one over there by the window.

Vatican City here, Pope's Right Hand Man speaking....WHAT!? (Puts hand over mouthpeice.) Your Emininent and Really Great Holiness, there's good news and bad news. The good news is that Jesus is on the phone. He's come again. The bad news is that he's calling from Salt Lake City." SLC -- where they have just opened a boutique DISTILLERY!!! Yes! And they have several breweries that make decent beers, too! Like Polygamy Porter ("Bring Some Home To The Wives." "When one is not enough!") It's for a meeting, actually. I'll still be a the Tavern.

Octopodi (which is what they call octopuses), I mean, they're just dumb animals, right? But I do think that this "calamari" thing has got to stop. Before you know it people will be squid-baiting, bringing in Sperm Whales to watch the fights and all. It's brutal and neither humane nor squidane and I for one refuse to be a party to it. |

Barbaric I call it. In fact Great Uncle Sid was talking about getting some of his North Pacific mates together to go round and scare the shit out of some of these calamari peddlers. You know the score, appear suddenly from the deep waving tentacles about and rocking a few boats. Have to watch out for these marine scientist types though because all they can think about is size, as if that matters, and those tape measures they use are bloody cold on wet appendages. |
