EARLY INTRIGUE AT THE BOHEMIAN LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN
The inaugural meeting of The Bohemian League of Gentlemen (BLOG), took place in a leafy Northwood hostelry, was infiltrated by a balding grey headed inebriate, believed to be the notorious gambler and builder, Big Bad Bobbidybob.
As the founding members of the League assembled at the bar of the chosen hostelry, a short disheveled figure, wearing no socks and wooden clogs was observed glancing towards the gathered brethren. Over a short period of time he had advance to an adjacent bar position and his balding and greying countenance was clear to all.
As the group noticed his pressing presence, Loafington "Meaty" Smythe and Horsington Smythe soon recognised this aging septuagenarian to be no other than the former Mitre reprobate Big Bad Bobbidybob. No sooner than eyes had met, the wooden clogged gambler was engaged in conversation involving the Mitre public house and the associated imbibers from those happy days.
As efforts to shake off the interloper were having little or no effect, the initial meeting of the League of Bohemians was initiated by the confirmation that a quorum was in place and a vote for the first President and Chairman of the League took place.
After a show of hands it was agreed that in view of his advancing years and past experience in defending his crease with a stout defense, it was agreed that Bombardier Steve Carter would become the first President and initial Chairman. However, at this moment the greying and now baying Big Bad Bobbidybob interjected and tried to advance his own name as inaugural Chairman, stating that he was senior in age to the Bombardier.
He also objected to Monsieur Steve Carter holding two offices, at which point if was voraciously pointed out to the gambling conman that he was not a member of the League, and should sling his hook.
The remaining Bohemian Knights, Loafington "Meaty" Smythe, Mose the Mosenelle, Sergeant Blainey, Boozy Creed,Tony "the Stallion" De Angelo and Horsington Smythe, confidently confirmed the joint appointment, and raised a glass to salute the new President and Chairman.
However, after proceeding to purchase a round of ale for the existing League Of Bohemian members,Big Bobby was allowed to continue his attendance at the meeting.
At this stage the voting of further officials was suspended so that the important positions of security officer, Imbiber General, Transport Secretary, Captain of the Consumption Ethics committee, and Intermediary Quaffer, would be kept secret from the failing hearing of the now doddering Big Bad Bobbidybob.
As the evening progressed, the level of consumption became to great to continue official business and the meeting closed with a further round being purchased involving numerous vodka and scotch whisky confections.
Soon the evening was over, and quite how the members all got home is not yet known or documented and will be discussed at next meeting.
