The Cane and Able- is it open yet?

joanlawson

Hi

I understand that Fat Kev is going to switch on the Christmas lights in the Cane and Able beer garden any time now. I know, it's SO exciting :!: Don't all rush at once to see him, girls :!:

Does that mean that the Cane and Able will be open again :?: It seems to have been closed for rather a long time, and with the festive season coming, I think we need somewhere to have a drink. I think it's time for Alan D. Lord to return from wherever he's been, and open up the pub.

Thanks for opening up the pub, Alan. I see that the conversation is just as intellectual and enlightening as ever in here Any chance of a hot toddy and a slice of Ichabod's odd pie :?:

Yes, what has happened to Ichabod :?: :?: He seems to have vanished without trace since the forum was upgraded.

It's bad enough to drive even me to drink....
Vodka and Gin in the same glass please barkeep.. And a round for anyone else left propping the bar up, one for yourslf too you barstewerd :shock:

Spiffing venue it is, Tony :!: As you are new to the forum, you don't know about the famous bunker under the bar. No doubt you will hear more about that :!:

You are now a fully paid up member of the Cane and Able Club, a blue Peter badge is in the post and if you talk to Joan she might give you a personal tour of The Bunker

The lav should be working again sometime next week if we can find a plumber

Does that mean I get to be on the darts team?
And in the meantime I'll just pee outside..
