The all new Nick, Miss C and Mr C go out for lunch thread

[Barman]

As expected... 

Oh yes.

We are in training for and building up to that much talked about, much coveted, even revered in certain circles accolade, the Not Meeting Meeting Award.

As many will know it was our own loved and still much missed Malcolm who last challenged and won the award and as a token of our respect this will, from now on, be know as the Snoopy Cup Challenge.

The challenge, as many on here will know, is to find a rural location with no phone signal and no internet access.  The location  must have two hostelries with the same name or names so similar as to be easily confused.  A meeting must then be arranged (well in advance) between the challenger/s and Nick.

To win the cup the challenger must sit in a hostelry not occupied by Nick for at least two hours. Nick meanwhile must sit in the same village/hamlet in the pub with the same name (or name so similar as to be easily confused) for a corresponding number of hours.

The challenger and Nick must then berate each other for a period of at least two weeks, unless they are judged to have been berating each other for at least 18 hours a day in which case the adjudicators may decide that a one week period will suffice.

Only when the berating has reached level 10 on the official VP Beratatron (standardised measuring system) will a new winner be declared.

Extra points may be awarded if the challenger remains in the comfort of their own home whilst Nick sits in a pub, however there must still be two hostelries with the same name (or name so similar as to be easily confused).















Terms and conditions not only apply but may be subject to change without prior notice or arrangement.

But this is all obviously null and voided by talcum powder....?

You have not been listening or learning anything during the last 10 years have you?

Oooo excellent, will you be in the same pub as Nick or in the other one with the same name (or name so similar as to be easily confused) this is on a purely on a need to know basis you understand.

I haven't got one near to me.... 

[Miss Creant Commander of the picklement and baking BAb(Hons)]

What idea?  I have long suspected that you are brain dead.   I am sure that LL will help you out so you had better be extra nice to her.

Told you that LL would help you.  I hear you are trimming some straggly bushes later today.

It will be up the rickety ladder for him, with the electric hedge trimmer in a few minutes 

Have to find some excuses (ie: my poor little lady arms are too weak  ) to include him in the garden maintenance and it also gives me huge opportunity to yell irritating directions to him (such as you are not doing that correctly) and have another chance at the life insurance lottery 

I feel it is my task in life to ensure he gets up off his lardy arse and out of subterranean world sometimes

Great, I live next door to one & not far from the other. I can start at the one furthest away & hiccuping, make my way to the nearest. Unless Nick is there in which case I will do it the other way round & either stagger home or get a taxi.
