Aal's got a stack of various flyers under a rock of a paperweight along with a few other things on a foldable table with a red and white table cloth being watched over by her beloved blonde mate. Whom even sitting his six foot frame would be hard to miss if there's any larger en masseing of folks or unfriendly type people. While she trots a smidgen away to stack stapling things to various posts in the plaza. Determined to do a fair few things while she still can even if she waddles a bit.

She's got a few brightly colored flyers in hand, as she gives a friendly smile to whoever might wander closer, her ears wiggle slightly. Even though she clears her thoart softly and gives a slightly sheepish look but depending on whom it is that might change quickly and easily to a grin or what have you. "Ahem, this might sound like an odd question but what would you say is some of your favorite summer type things to do?"

She slightly winces but gives her best smile while internally kicking herself.

Oh yes make it sound like a survey question that would surely get folks into a festive mood.

"Burning hurts too. I'd rather not have to go through all of that."

Mick was sensible when it came to keeping out of the sun as he was mostly an indoor sort of man anyway who liked to play guitar or spend hours in the recording studio playing around with arrangement. As for the drinks idea it seemed that Mick had struck gold and was pleased she liked his idea.

"Oh yeah good idea. I think we could get one of the lads to look after the drinks. Weird is usually the "dad" or our group since he's sensible. You don't like beer I'm guessing? I prefer gin or whiskey usually but beer can be a nice refresher to start with."

Was she a cocktail type of girl instead?

Aal nods as well, "Aye, " She murmurs and jots on her clipboard again so she had a list/reminder. "Better safe then sorry on that count." She murmurs.

She grins more at this. She chuckles, "Oh" She murmurs her eyes twinkling. And shoots her mate a sideways lok. "sounds like he and my Papa Wolf over there ought to get along." She murmurs with a good-natured chuckle. "Ah, naw too sour and such for my tastes..Even if it wasn't medically unadvisable I tend to not have such..Prefer maybe a glass or so of wine or bubbly on occasion. " She informs him nonchalantly. "Lately though I've been craving milkshakes and the sort."

She nods and makes a note of that.

"Bubbly? You mean champagne or wine sort of thing? I can't drink too much of that since it blows me out. Gives me stomach ache with the gas. Spirits and beer are more my thing."

Mick had a nasty bout of gas when he drank too much bubbly at someone's wedding once. That was rather embarrassing too since he had to keep ducking out to visit the bathroom. At least beer and gin went down a treat with his stomach. Aal liked milkshakes? This caused the blond to smile fondly.

"Oh, milkshakes, eh? I used to drink those when I was a lad. Strawberry is my favourite. My mum used to buy me one when we went on holiday to the seaside close to our town."

Those were good days.

"Ah, aye exactly. " She murmurs and then her eyebrows go up. "Oh, dear." She murmurs and reaches out to try and pat his shoulder in comfort. "I'm ahem. " She glances about. As there's only her new possible friend and hubby about she feels safe enough to confide. "Like that with onions." She murmurs she shakes a little. "Well, just be careful lad..I'd rather not lose ya after just meeting ya." She murmurs warmly but firm.

She brightens immensely at that and nods several times. "Oh yes, I have a pal who does this cute little design with little peanut butter cups." She chuckles warmly. "And noted..mmh, Ice cream social..sounds like a nice idea too." She murmurs and adds it to the clipboard.

"Oooh sounds lovely." She murmurs warmly.

Mick smiled at the pat to his shoulder and liked that she cared so much for her friends. She really was a mother hen sort of caring person and the blond found it endearing. He laughed softly and shook his head.

"Don't worry, love, I won't get sick. I've grown up a little since I drank all that bubbly. It was when I was around 18 or so. A young lad."

Peanut butter cups? He wondered what those were. They sounded tasty either way. An ice cream social was something the Nexus could do with and Mick would be onboard with the idea, although there would have to be dietary needs for those who couldn't drink milk or eat sugar.

"Ziggy can't eat sugar so ice cream without would be good."

"Good and ah, so curious and unsure of yer limits?" She murmurs still sympathetic. Her right eye twitching a little. She oft had issues of tripping up one way or another. (sometimes literally ) herself back in the day. Though she still had her not so great moments. Less as often nowadays. Thankful but it did happen.

She makes a soft soothing cooing murmur sort of sound nevertheless.

Her ears perk up and then her eyes soften, "Oh I'm sorry to hear that." Though she makes note of it better to know. Perhaps yes she or someone could help her figure out a way of making or getting a proper alternative. "Thank you for letting me know. Surprisingly not many folks have been telling me if they have allergens or not." So hopefully that meant the latter but you never knew. "MMh, need to get some index cards to put ingredients on methinks." She half murmurs to herself as she jots that down.
