Hey there @GonePirate, nice to see you back behind the bar.  I hope that life has been treating you well.

Can I have a generous serve of Bailey's on ice please?  Dessert and alcohol in one hit.  Genius 🙂

Hi @GonePirate  I'm ready for a quiet absinthe for my dreams tonight thanks. And I'll curl up on a suede lounge in the corner.

Si saunters in and pops some Tom Waits on the jukebox, then orders a smoky single malt scotch... Ardbeg or Bowmore, because he can't spell Laphroaig...

[Singing]

Edna Million in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
2 pairs of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of bourbon, I can't stand up

Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone

LOVE Tom Waites. @Silenus you just reminded me of one of my favourite of all time movies, Rumble Fish, where Tom Waites plays the coolest bar-keep ever.

I'll have a large G&T thanks.  Celebrating because I just wrote a new poem (at last) - it's on the Writing As A Form of Therapy thread.  Feeling good.  Hope everyone else here is too.  Slante!

[Silenus]

Don't know that movie, @eth. I'll have to check it out. Cheers... 🙂

G&T coming up... sliiiiiiiiiiiide...

[eth]

@Silenus  It stars a younger Matt Dillon, Mickey Rourke and Harry Dean Stanton and is pretty old now but you might still be able to get hold of it on-line.  Loved the sound track.

Cheers to you too 😄
