The bar door swings open and in strolls the shepherd, Sean Ramsbottom; “evenin’ Sean” says Colin, “hello Sean” says Fred, “welcome, Sean” says Walter, “hi Bo Peep” says Solomon. 

“Watcha’ mean, Bo Peep?” asks Sean, “I heard you lost a sheep t’other day and didn’t know where to find it!” laughs Solomon, “well I did find it, in my kitchen, but how it gained access I’ve no idea!” 

“Talkin’ of access I’ve forgotten my password” says Solomon whist fiddling with his mobile phone; “they’ve got transparent phones in America now, cellophones” jokes Colin, king of the corny joke – no one laughs!

“I had a friend request on Facebook t’other day, not sure who she was but she looked a bit like a sloozy”, says Fred; “it wasn’t me” shouts slightly sloshed Suzie from a nearby table – “I said a sloozy Suzie, not Suzie, Suzie”, groans Fred, 

“I use WhatsUp” says Walter, “it’s called WhatsApp mate” says Colin, “well I call it WhatsUp because that’s what I ask when I get a message!” he replies!

“I’m a Twitter m’self” says Solomon; “it’s called X now and, you send kisses not tweets, x x x, kiss kiss kiss!” shouts Suzie – “and all the little birdies go x x x”, warbles Walter!

    What a funny and punny group you are

    Hahaha! I can just picture this group of regulars ’round the bar with their stories.

      I heard many a story from my side of the bar, this lot isn’t far different from my lot!

        I was thinking you were surely inspired by the bar stories you’ve heard over the years!

        I have zero doubt! I know you occasionally miss those days, eh?

      Nothing I like more than playing with words! Thanks, Sadje.

        It’s the truth.

    I don’t know about corny, but “…they’ve got transparent phones in America now, cellophones” jokes Colin, is kinda funny.

    My curiosity perked up as soon as Solomon called Sean “Bo Peep”. And how Suzie couldn’t distinguish between her name and “sluzzie”. I probably wouldn’t be able to either.

      It wasn’t just Bo Peep who lost her sheep. Perhaps Fred should have said floozy, not sloozy!
