As ever, the gerbils are yours to command...

AstonVillains · 31/07/2024 12:46

@Boiledbeetle Ughhh! Can you imagine the mess that would make if the consistency was slightly softer ughhh

Yup. www.thepoke.com/2016/08/12/man-describes-the-harrowing-events-of-poohpocalypse-when-his-roomba-met-a-dog-turd/

A roomba?

I think we all know how that story finishes.

That would be adorable. They can order what they want off the Bluestocking's extensive menu.

I think we could train a gerbil with a tiny dustpan and brush, bet their hourly rate is reasonable. I'll even throw in an extra lettuce as a tip.

(Note I have no clue what gerbils eat!)

I'm for happy smelly dogs btw, in case you couldn't tell.

DeanElderberry · 31/07/2024 11:12

Terriers are usually ready to 'clean up' herbivore (and other) poo. Unfortunately they sometimes roll in it along the way.

Dirty floors or happy smelly dogs who'll need worming some time - you choose.

Boiledbeetle · 31/07/2024 10:54

Do you think we could have a whip round for a cleaner?

lcakethereforeIam · 31/07/2024 10:09

Well there's already goat, quokka and seagull poop everywhere, I doubt a bit of gerbil poo will make much difference.

TWETMIRF · 31/07/2024 08:31

Well if you fail to provide single sex species toilets then you have to expect shit all over the floor.

She's been very busy. I suspect gerbils would be welcome at the Bluestocking. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a tiny, wee bar just for them.

Apparently we need a tiny poo bar for them.💩I didn't ask the AI for droppings, just ice creams, cocktails & sun umbrellas. And this technology is going to take over the world?

Awfully quiet here & I can guess why.

I'll be honest I've been getting shitfaced in the pub in between getting stuck in the swimming pool, hearding goats and quokkas and playing at pirates.

TWETMIRF · 30/07/2024 19:56

I think they are, yes.

I have been at Guide camp, all our girls are female so no penises to worry about luckily. Hopefully we will never have a bepenised 'girl' wanting to join as our rules say we need to ask them where they'd like to sleep and the actual girls don't get a say. We're also not allowed to tell any parents so no informed consent, yay for inclusively!

DeanElderberry · 30/07/2024 19:47

not quaite naice if so

Not the AIs best work, but the only one out of 12 that it spelt right!

That is truly a work of absolute wonder It's sooo.. Well... It's .... You see..... I'm sorry there just aren't the words to describe that! It will sell for millions!! Assuming @Steventheseagull doesn't nick it first!

I'll shred it like Banksy. It'll be messy, though.

Apropos of absolutely nothing, I have been sharing my dining table with a woman from Cheltenham who is the lead architect on a conversion of a redundant office block to housing. The general conversation has been fascinating but we drifted onto the topic of this thread. My dining companion graduated in the '70s and when I mentioned Aston University, her reaction was "Oh, I thought that they awarded degrees in hitting hot lumps of metal with a hammer".

Maybe AU should have stuck with their traditional specialities.

So you have never heard a senior management briefing that started "A team of seagulls from Accenture will be joining us on Monday for four weeks. Please extend them every courtesy but make sure that they don't get sight of of anything that could be regarded as USP".

No. But I wish I had 😂

JanesLittleGirl · 25/07/2024 21:31

Boiledbeetle · 25/07/2024 21:08

I'd never heard seagulls used in that way but it totally works!

Isn't 'seagull' a derogatory expression for a management consultant? Somebody who flies in, makes a load of noise, shits all over everything, steals everything they can get their claws on and then flies off again.
