I think there's a few choc buttons left, although Deadly has been seen lurking around the corner. I can, however, offer this slightly chipped segment of a slab of extra dark chocolate I found over under the bar.

Hello Thalinor <<waving>> - you've dipped on the chocolate buttons I'm afraid (and they were giant ones too!!), but I have produced a vat of bolognaise which seems to be replicating itself in the pan, so please feel free to have some on this chilly evening...no, please - I insist! I don't want to be eating it in four days' time!!}xx(

Always willing to prop up a bar but with Christmas coming up funds are running short even a virtual bar has some expenses. All so getting fed up of having a fixed grin on my face as I watch my profession collapse. Still make mine a very large brandy and I will drink to good times round the corner............

Ah yes, but a nicely warmed Malbec to take your mind off the chocolate...
How are we all this evening? Any of the (many) lurkers feel inclined to come and join the party just this once? Go on, you know you want to really...come and take a load off and then have a guest 5 minutes on the soap box...:face-approve:
Feel pretty downhearted for everyone struggling to find work or with the dreaded redundancy axe wavering overhead...have a very strong feeling that my contract is just going to run out and that'll be it...at least it is until just after the dreaded 'C' word - I hope!!. (Happy thought - a month today and it will be over for another year!!})
What can we do to cheer people up??:face-approve:

I don't know what to do to cheer people up, we're just in from two days in York with two more to go. Christmas fair (groans all around) and business isn't exactly brisk this year.
Drinks all round, since they're virtual. I can afford to buy everyone a virtual drink.
Still, the week's had its lighter moments, I was able to wind up someone who really deserved it. That's free and always good fun.
