To think I'm past it

[JunosRevenge]

I must confess to enjoying a large small sherry in front of the open fire now that the cold weather is here.

Evidently my rock-chick credentials are now lost. Is there anything else I ought to be doing?

[Wookiecookies]

Crochet?

[ghostyslovesheets]

really you should have been in bed an hour ago

[VanillaSugarAndChristmasSpice]

Pipe and slippers. And a rocking chair.

[Wookiecookies]

I watch finger waggy reality tv. So that I can rattle on like an old harpy (thanks Matthew Wright) at the tv, and put the world to rights. No one is listening of course, but who cares?

[Shosha1]

Tweed Slippers and brocade dressing gown on as well ?

[JunosRevenge]

Nope. Sheepskin boots and a woollen wrap!

I'd love to be able to crochet - never mastered it, alas. I can knit though

[Wookiecookies]

That may be true Euphemia, but it depends what you are crocheting, if its toilet dollies, then you are well past it. If its some kind of subversive sweary hipster cushion, woven from the silkiest mens beards, conditioned exclusively with peruvian macadamia oil, then, you may just be clinging onto the edges of youth.

[JunosRevenge]

I had a friend who used to wear a gold bikini with a long (knee-length) crocheted waistcoat and knee-high boots for clubbing. She looked amazing!

• put your nightie on the radiator while you are in the bath
  
• get a tea cosy
  
• have a favourite programme on the wireless and settle down to it 2 minutes early
  
• get a bit flustered when you get a voicemail; and when you return the call, explain exactly what you were doing when you missed the original call, including a long preamble about why you were doing this thing at a slightly different time from last week

[Wookiecookies]

maudlin. a crocheted tea cosy?

[JunosRevenge]

Haha maudlin my FIL does the voicemail thing (with VERY long preambles!)

No tea cosy here yet. But I do listen to the Archers

[Wookiecookies]

Now this I could buy into euphemia

[SabineUndine]

Cat, knitting, tea and cake.

[Wookiecookies]

The archers? Oh dear op I fear you may be beyond all help.

[JunosRevenge]

Is that a wine cosy?!

[Wookiecookies]

It sure is Juno

[Wookiecookies]

Have you got a 'peoples friend' subscription yet juno?

[JellyBelli]

Its the new Goth. Crochet, sherry, furry slippers, skull on the mantelpiece.

[JunosRevenge]

What a bloody great idea! Too-Cold red wine makes me very sad ... perhaps I should have a go at the crochet thing again!

[Gingernaut]

Cross stitching the latest Belle & Boo design with "The Organist Entertains" followed by "Listen to the Band" on BBC Radio 2.

[JunosRevenge]

No skull Jelli

My DH has some Sisters of Mercy albums though

[TheABC]

I do crochet when the cat permits me to touch the wool stash. Think fluffy hats and anime octopi.

Who/what are the Archers?
