I'm going to just cover my head with a newspaper, and go to sleep. And hope it's either all gone, or all finished by the time I wake up.

@helios & James: You will live. Just go back to sleep and dream that this never happened.
@Theosophus: Yes, but please make sure it matches. I don't want color clashing. I'm going for deep rich colors...think really deep, but not too deep or purple, reds and vibrant, but not bluish, greens. Really plush colors. *cleaning off tables and dumping out ashtrays*
Right, take all the tables out, I don't care what you do with them. They've all got scorch marks and water rings on them anyway. Yes, bring the new ones in through here. The big banquet table can go more towards the west wall, there's room for it there. *moving men bring in small round oak tables, some larger than the others, and a long oak banquet table* Right. The billiards tables can go in the corner over there, and mind the lamps. *getting a broom and sweeping dust and cobwebs out the door*

This looks pretty heavy-duty. I'm going to do what all good architects like myself do... and retreat to a safe distance. Anyone for a game of billiards? I'm sure there's a room somewhere here that a) has a table and b) hasn't been requisitioned for redecorating or furniture storage.
Now then, how do we move the bar in one piece?

Persons intending to travel by open carriage should select a seat with their backs to the engine, by which means they will avoid the ashes emitted therefrom, that in travelling generally, but particularly through the tunnels, prove a great annoyance; the carriage farthest from the engine will in consequence be found the most desirable.

Oh no, the bar stays right where it's at. I have no intention of moving it. They've just finished putting up the billiards tables, over there, in the corner. *points*

EEP! *oof**bang**crash* When was the last time....nevermind. *stuffs things back in the broom closet* I am never....EVER....going in there again. What's this about lemon curry? Is that what color we're painting it? No....no. *shaking head*
You and your zombie crew can start, just no eating the patrons or anyone else. I find 'em drooling over a body and I'll sprinkle 'em with salt I will.

Ooh...much better. ^_^ Lemon Curry might be good as an accent....maybe. Have you got any deep, golden-ish reds in there by any chance? I think I might prefer that better as an accent.

I always enjoy a friendly game of billiards Mr. Harrison. And perhaps a gentleman's wager?

Certainly. Shall we say 5 guineas worth of bar drinks to the winner?

I like the way you think, good sir.
But I must warn you. During my days at Cambridge, I was quite proficient with a cue.

A worthy opponent indeed, then. I twice won my alma mater's billiards tournament. This should be stimulating as well as entertaining.

Twice you say?
This should prove interesting indeed.
Shall we flip a coin for the break?

If it is challanges we are undertaking, then I challange any one here to drink me under the table! If they cannot, then drinks are on me.

Sounds like a plan. ^_^ @helios: You'll have to do better than that. Drinks here are free anyway. |

Ooh, shiny. A new one, evidently. Heads or tails?

You may want to hold onto this coin. It has no date on it. Which means you could get £7000 for it from some or other coin collector.
