Women with birds...

[joegoda]

There are pictures of Women with Birds! At the Wenches last Wednesday, Charity and Teresa both lent their heads and hair as perches for the two kestrals that Bob brought.


Here they is:

Charity and Chase!

Teresa and the un-named Kestral

For capi and dial-up folks... the images are kinda large in full size and may load fairly slowly. It was taken with my cell phone, but darned if they didn't turn out ok doke.

I *knew* you'd crow over these (sorry, couldn't resist!)

What he didn't snap, or at least didn't post, was a pic of the ADORABLE pupps that was also a rescue that day. Bob said, "Well, they were going to put him down and I just couldn't let them do that." Of course... *smile*

So soft and silk and such a sweetheart. He let Sherri's hubby hold him on his lap, belly up, and flop around his paws like he was playing patti-cake. I nearly died of the cute.

It was a lovely pub night, with friends and birds and puppies and laughter. Nice of the pub owner to be so amicable. I like this place and I like the owner. He saw Bruce and me as we were leaving and gave me a big smiley greeting and came over and did a one arm hug....nice guy indeed. Who know, even a gig or something for QG might come out of it some day.

The place has a nice, relaxed and 'neighborhood' feel to it; just what the owner is wanting to build. *grin* And even though it's a bit of a drive for us, I think it's very worthwhile to support him. He's our kinda guy!

So many good tidings from yesterday! And did i detect implications that Bob had come along with a new lady friend? That would fill me with joy; that man needs an infusion of love in his life!

Yes, you are a great detective. We got to meet her just before JRF and (not that it matters too much) she is absolutely delightful.

She's simply lovely and has such a sweet, kind and loving nature. They just glow when they're together and it's lovely to see. She helps with the birds and looks so natural doing so.

Unfortunately, she also has a difficult work schedule (I think she's in heathcare?) so they don't get to see one another as often as they'd like.

Bob has had enough of the turmoil....

But it is a VERY GOOD THING.

*bursting into tears of joy*

I'm soooooo happy to hear this!! He was hurting so deeply when i met him.

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

Indeed...we've all been quite concerned for him.

A couple weeks ago he said quietly to me, "I never knew I needed family before." *big cheesy grin* NOW he knows!

[capi.livejournal.com]

Awwwww!! *notices that she, too, is wearing a big cheesy grin*

*hee* Wonderfuller and wonderfuller!!!

OH, after you left and the birds had left, Chet and I were talking to "The King" we said we needed to call him sometime and see if we could have a Royal Wednesday sometime, with the birds and maybe QG and some wenches in garb out on the patio.. He liked the idea!! Might be a relaxed way to give him a sample of the music for future gigs!

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

What a wonderful idea! I hope that patio will be big enough...

*grin*

You guys are awesome!

Well, to be honest, I think Charity was more talkative than we were. I believe that the King was saying that if it was a weekly thing, he might be able to go for it. I don't know about an intermittent performance date. AND I don't know if there would be any pay involved for QG. I think QG's Business manager should give him a call for details.

Well, getting Becky and Nikki down for a weeknight would be hard, Nikki especially, but Amber might be able to be talked into an isolated gig this simmer.

As for pay, that's negotiable. I can speak with him next time we're there and see if we can't discuss it. I surely wouldn't expect him to pay us until after he's heard us. A little good will along those lines is worth a lot.

I kiddingly mentioned getting drinks and food half priced. He shot back that it might be a doable thing. I told him that I was kidding, and he said that he wasn't. Or maybe it was his partner that said that. His SO was there, I think. A fairly pretty red haired woman shared his table. He remembered the night the server came into the kitchen and told him that the Queen was there. He said his first reaction was "Who the hell?" That was the night you and I drove through the rain and beat everyone else there.

It might turn out to be an interesting thing, you folks playing there. Might be good for everyone's mutual benefit, even if you and Bruce just do a casual duet sort of thing. I had considered asking you to have him bring his guitar anyway.

Somehow, I can see our group breaking out into spontaneous song, whether it be in the Wench, or out on the Riverwalk. Tho... I think doing it out on the Riverwalk would be very cool, once it stops being so bloody hot.

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

Sounds like an idea with a great deal of promise. Perhaps we can get there this next Wednesday evening again and discuss a bit more.

I think that the evening of the mutual birthday dinner on the Riverwalk might be a great time for some after dinner music. Ya know, ABob has a lovely voice as well...

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

ABob is just lovely, from the soul out. A quality a great many of my loved family has.

[rowangolightly.livejournal.com]

I couldn't agree more

*squish*

BTW, I was describing you three to some of my other loved family at WH; hoping that I can introduce you all to one another in a couple weeks!

[shackrlu.livejournal.com]

hmmm. I thought he said the possibility of discounted beverages was if it were a weekly thing. I don't remember it being about the singing and birds n stuff at all.

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

That could very well be. You know how it is when I have my mind on something else. I don't like this time of year... to many crossover emotions.
