The Octagon Bar: Don't Say We Didn't Warn You

[starsforu2]

I 2nd that!

** Lights up a stogie and sits on the couch with a glass of Merlot **

You have gotta love virtual smoking! Nobody's offended and I'm relaxed... speaking of which, I wonder if Ewen is still steadfast? If so, It took me 16 years to quit everything. Now I just smoke cigars on occasion. It's great. Non-addictive and relaxing

** Blows smoke ring in the shape of a belly dancer **

Heh heh, looks a lot like Tara

Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must
place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you
get a two-level effect with a little path running down the middle.

Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must
cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... with... a herring!
*cue dramatic chord*


(I appear to have far too much time on my hands, lol)

... speaking of which, I wonder if Ewen is still steadfast? If so,

He is.

:: puts Ewen to bed early, leaves hall light on ::

Have you got a nice cuttlefish for me when I wake up?

Hello Ewen, Ewen

*bangs himself against the bar*

Ewen,wake up. Ewen.

*throws himself in the air and lets himself fall to the floor*

Now that's what I call a dead Ewen

 

[starsgoblue]

Don't nail yourself to a perch

 

[pax]

:: drags Ewen into the igloo ::

Come on, ewe. Naptime.

**Walks on to the stage with a guitar under her arm **

Ladies and gentlemen of The Octagon, since this is a place with roots in the lovely Dublin city...

**Tunes the guitar**

... I'd like to sing you an Irish song... and dedicated it to my lost bottle of Jameson - I miss you darling, where ever your are!

Please feel free to sing along!

I've been a wild rover for many's the year
and I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
and now I'm returning with gold in great store
and I never will play the wild rover no more

And it's no, nay, never no, nay, never!

No more will I play the wild rover
no, never, no more

I went into an alehouse I used to frequent
and I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit,
she answered me nay,
such a custom as yours I could have any day

And it's no, nay, never no, nay, never!

No more will I play the wild rover
no, never, no more

I took from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
and the landlady's eyes opened up with delight
she said she had whiskeys and wines of the best
and the words that she told me were only in jest

And it's no, nay, never no, nay, never!

No more will I play the wild rover
no, never, no more

I went home to my parents,
confessed what I'd done
and I asked them to pardon their prodigal son
and when they'd caressed me as oft times before
I never will play the wild rover no more

And it's no, nay, never no, nay, never!

No more will I play the wild rover
no, never, no more







Edited to add: What a nice way to celebrate my 1600th post!

 

[starsgoblue]

YAY!!!!

 

[Merc]

You think I could win "Idol" with that song?!

 

[Merc]

Ni... ni ni ni... ni ni ni ni ni...

Bonnes week-ends to all my Octa-goners!

Time to leave work!

 

[U2democrat]

woo i just rented bulworth! i'm happy

 

[U2democrat]

it's the weekend!!!!!! three rounds of drinks on me!!!!!!!!!

 

[sallycinnamon78]

So much for my shrubbery...

How are you lot?

I am drunk - or, as we commonly say over here, ratarsed. It's the first time I've been drunk and happy in a fair while... it feels good.

While I'm ratarsed, I would just like to make a speech (I promise I won't cry like Gwneth Paltrow or have to be carted off like Anna Nicole Smith).

Thankyou to everyone for helping me, you've been very kind and supportive and I appreciate it so much.

I therefore insist on buying you all drinks!

 

[starsgoblue]

Love ya SallyCinn

I'd love a Guinness... since I'm not allowed to drink the real stuff. I can have a couple on St. Patty's Day for a tease and then I can help myself to as many as my heart desires after each concert. But until then, sadly, I cannot.

 

[U2democrat]

ratarsed...i like that word!
