Hey Shirley that sounds lovely!!  will this be served in the Mexican theme room next to the bar??Laughing  I'm joking don't take offenceSmile

 


 Say, I thought it better then"taco's" as they have about took over many areas, it bothered me to know they now own and operate our local McDonald's. Kind of like their one foot in the door and it's gone and changed to Mexican...though they aren't the only ones doing that these days...we have plenty of orientals. Kind of like the household help has turned the tide around now in these parts over the last 30 years.  "Yes, sir, what can I help you with sir"..I'm gearing up these days Jason...."Me no speaka Spanish"....it might be the new way of doing things here if it keeps up.

Has anyone suggested themed rooms yet?  LOL. I can't remember. 

We could have different themed rooms and the decor would match that room. For example we have to have an "Inklings" room to honor CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien, and we could decorated it with pictures of the men and maybe frame up a few book covers, etc. Laughing


 Diana you never told us as "decor" lady, what our color  themes would be...can you tune us in an bit? You know, some foods just don't look good with certain decor...take the case of turquiose and frog legs for example. (Snickers)..OK..crimsom red table cloths and "Bood-pudding" something or truther.....I never ate bloodpudding to begin with to tell you the truth...but if we have an bunch of jolly good knight's-in-armor  out there doing re-enactments, something we need to take into consideration.

 Either one maybe....would the younger generation know whom your talking about though? If this is an "pub" instead an superb fine restruant with classic good reportre.(ta-ta!).but just an "pub" of ordinary fivolity..how about an "British Invasion" lounge room...and do spin off's on the Beatles music onward.  Just an suggestion.

When I think of English pubs, I don't think of tablecloths at all.  I envision scrubbed pine tables with perhaps a nice rubbing of beeswax.

I have a couple of Renaissance costumes I could bring to the mix.  That's kind of close to Tudor, isn't it Rick the Barman (who could double as his own bouncer given that he's been working out at the gym)?

 Who would like to play the role of highwayman?
