<walks into the canteen>

"I wonder what the canteen are serving today. I 'ope it isn't that 'alibut they was flogging yesterday"

<sees Mr. Lucas>

"'Ello Mr. Lucas, what are you 'aving for dinner?"

<sees Ms. Brahms walk in, straightens tie, clears throat>

Hello Ms. Brahms, just having my usual, sardines on toast...May I buy you lunch today?

Posted: 4:48 AM - Aug 13, 2009
Eva
"If you want Mr. Lucas, but I'm not 'aving what you're 'aving"

<puts hanky down on plate and gets up, reaches into his pocket to pull out his billfold, and walks toward Ms. Brahms>

Anything you want is my treat, Ms. Brahms. He tells her as he approaches.

"Hmmm.... well, since you're paying... I'll 'ave the Sheppard's Pie..."

Posted: 3:12 PM - Aug 17, 2009
Libby_W
<Pulling out her seat> One sheppard pie for the lovely Ms. Brahms, coming up!

<moving the seat w/Ms. Brahms to the table> I will be back with your lunch, my lady.

Posted: 9:12 AM - Aug 19, 2009
Eva
"Thankyou Mr. Lucas"

Posted: 2:43 PM - Aug 20, 2009
Libby_W
<smiling real big, walks to the canteen line and orders the sheppards pie, blows out a sigh of relief>

Please go to the movies with me tonight, Ms. Brahms...he whispers to himself as he brings the sheppard pie to the table.

Here is you dinner, ma'dam... <he states as he places the food in front of Ms. Brahms and bows like a real waiter>

Enjoy.

"Thankyou, Mr. Lucas"

<looks around>

"Where is everyone?"

Posted: 11:02 PM - Aug 23, 2009
Libby_W
I was just about to ask you the same question, Ms. Brahms.

Have you noticed how jumpy people are today? For example, Capt. Peacock. Totally ignored you on the floor earlier, and Mr. Grainger, hanging onto that briefcase for dear life!

By the way, What's up with Mrs. Slocombes pussy?

Posted: 12:05 AM - Aug 26, 2009
Eva
"She's 'ad to take it to the vet. Pussy problems."

<pause>

"Have you seen Mr. 'Umphries? He was on the floor this morning, and then 'e disappeared. Something strange is going on around 'ere."

Posted: 4:50 PM - Aug 28, 2009
Libby_W
No, I have not seen Mr. Humphries since Capt. Peacock left the floor.

Blimey, I have NO idea what is going on, Ms. Brahms.

BTW, would you do me the honor of going to the movies with me, tonight after our shifts?

Posted: 7:20 AM - Aug 29, 2009
Eva
"Hmmm... I don't know. What's playing?"

Posted: 5:50 PM - Aug 29, 2009
Libby_W
Let's see....< grabs the news and fumbles thru the pages >

AH, here it is...mmmm.

BAMBI or the Unsatisfied Virgin are the two features playing tonight.

< eyes wild open like he's shocked that these are playing, but knew all along > <cocks a half grin>

Eva
"I don't know... I was going to go out with Mr. Walpole tonight..."

<pause>

"What is that scent you are wearing Mr. Lucas. It's very strong."

Posted: 2:22 PM - Aug 30, 2009
Libby_W
It's that "His and Hers" scent I was showing you and Mr. Humphries this morning.

That's from the sample on my wrist to show Mr. Humphries how it scents AFTER you put it on.

Your scent is still charming...<sniffing >

Posted: 12:57 AM - Sep 07, 2009
Libby_W
Speaking of Mr. Humphries, he hasn't shown up for lunch yet.

Nor has Capt. Peacock. Blimey, I wish I could figure out what the bloody hell is going on!

But, I have figured one thing out, Ms. Brahms. <looking at his watch>

We are 2 minutes late!!!

Posted: 8:50 AM - Sep 07, 2009
Eva
"Oh blimey!"

<shovels down some food before standing up>

"'Ang on... why are we 'urrying? There's nobdoy on the floor to reprimand us, unless old Peacock's back from wherever it was he was."

Posted: 5:13 PM - Sep 09, 2009
Libby_W
You're right...<he states as he sits back down>

Do you know what is going on with Capt. Peacock and Mr. Grainger?

Perhaps Mrs. Slocombe has mentioned something to you. unsure

Posted: 3:15 AM - Sep 10, 2009
Eva
<sits down>

"She 'asn't told me nothing. But Capt. Peacock and Mr. Grainger were both acting stange. And now Mr. 'Umphries has gone and disappeared. It's all very strange."

Posted: 11:51 PM - Sep 10, 2009
Libby_W
That's what I was talking about...

There's got to be a reason for them disappearing.

None of them would give up their commissions. angry2withwaggingfinger Especially on the men's side of the floor.

Posted: 3:39 AM - Sep 11, 2009
Eva
"Maybe there's been another outbreak of Marine's Disease and they've 'ad to go into quarantine. Either that or the TARDIS showed up and took 'em all..."

Posted: 3:40 PM - Sep 12, 2009
Libby_W
It's possible that they've got the Marines Disease. With the lifestyle Mr. Humphries has, you never know.

If it is that, I'm bloody glad I didn't get it. You've caught it before, have you not Ms. Brahms?

Posted: 2:35 AM - Sep 14, 2009
Eva
"I 'ave, yes. It was 'orrible!"

Posted: 1:59 PM - Sep 15, 2009
Libby_W
I've heard Mr. Humphries talk about it.

It sounds like all of you had an awful week that week.

Glad I was on vacation at that time. 😀

Posted: 5:10 AM - Sep 16, 2009
Eva
"How long was you on that vacation anyway? You was gone forever!"

Posted: 12:23 AM - Sep 17, 2009
Libby_W
Honestly Ms. Brahms, It was more of a vacation-suspension ordeal.

Because me commission was so low, they gave me a two week suspension with only one week pay.

As you know, it's tough to get a commission when the senior salesman always get the customer...try working with two! yech

It's not easy being the junior in sales. At least on your side there's only two sales persons.

Posted: 9:29 AM - Sep 17, 2009
Eva
"Yes, but Mrs. Slocombe's determined to get 'er sales - sometimes she'll serve two customers at once, or she'll give me the one that makes less commission."

Posted: 3:47 PM - Sep 17, 2009
Libby_W
So you understand what I'm going through trying to get sales.

And, just our luck, the seniors are pre-occupied with other things, and we still have no customers to make commissions off of.

Blimey!! muttering

Posted: 10:08 PM - Sep 18, 2009
Eva
"Maybe we should be getting back. If there's nobody on the floor we might get a sale or two."

Posted: 3:32 PM - Sep 19, 2009
Libby_W
Once again, right as rain Ms. Brahms. ok

<getting up and walking towards the lift>

Have you given any more thought to the movies tonight, Ms. Brahms?

Posted: 1:43 AM - Sep 20, 2009
Eva
"Well, I don't know. I'll 'ave to get back to you about that."

<Lunch break over>Miss Brahms and Mr Lucas return to the floor.
