Place the word "and" five times consecutively, and around it place sufficient words to make a valid and gramatical English sentence.

An example layout is "word one word two word three and and and and and word four word five" Well you see what I mean.

...if I only had to use "and", "and", "and" and "and".

Mr. and Mrs. Conjunction, being the connective little parts of speech that they were, decided to have a child. Much to their surprise, the doctor told them that not only would they have one little Conjunction but they would be blessed with quadruplets.
Thinking very hard but not too swift of mind, forgetting that there were so many names to pick from like As, But, So, Or, and After, the happy couple gave birth. Peeking into the rainbow colored blankets, they smiled down upon And, And, And and And Conjunction, who would grow up to be rather maladjusted teens blaming their parents for all their problems as children are wont to do.

The sentence is an instruction to a signwriter, regarding the name of a British pub (bar)

The instruction to the signwriter is about word spacing.

Now the other answers have been clever, that's for sure. the "real" answer is:

"When you write the words on the sign, remember to leave the right spacing between Cat and And and And and Fiddle"

Now, anyone want to try a sentence with the word "had" in it seven times in succession?

John, where Jim had had "had" had had "had had"; "Had had" found greater favour with the examiners. (That's nine in a row!)
