‘Thanks Joe, that’s mighty kind of you … and Covems,’ I say giving the old guy a crooked little grin before looking back towards the pool room first, craning my neck a little but unable to really see anything. Turning towards the rotating table my head slightly tilts as I watch the band and patrons locked in their passionate exchange.
‘Well Joe I’ve got to say this is definitely one hell of a bar you’ve got going here. I think I might just have to stick around and see how the rest of the night unfolds. No doubt there will be no shortage of action by the looks of it.’ I grin looking back at the old man behind the bar giving him another grin. ‘Again thanks for the drink, needed it.’
Seeing Hukk enter the bar I give him a nod, raising my glass to him before drinking it down then turn my attention back to the rest of the bar.
“I think these two guys need a challenge to see what they are made of, don’t you?” the voice of Old Joe spoke, quickly catching my attention as I turn back to him and the others at the bar.
‘A challenge you say?’ I asked with a crooked grin, ‘Well hell I’m up for it if Hukk is!’ I raise my glass to Hukk and start to take a drink then realize it’s empty. Turning back to Joe I slide him the glass, ‘But I might need another one before I get on that thing,’ I say with a chuckle motioning towards the bronco behind me.
