Welcome to the Bluestocking, where gerbils dance & quokkas - well, no-one's quite sure what they're up to.

FuzzyPuffling · 10/10/2024 19:43

Are we nearly there yet?

Kevin is flying in carrying some stuff too. Unlike him to be helpful.

I started a thread yesterday. I'm not ready to start another one. I'll help pack up here though. I've got teeny pigs to wrangle.

Ooh, a margarita!

I once taught a young man who refused to wear a hard hat because it would muss up his coiffure... 😂

I went to college with a punk with a magnificent mohican. Why he was going into an industry that required wearing a hard hat is beyond me!

LAST PAGE ALERT!

You did such a splendid job this thread, so we'll all sit happily drinking margaritas whilst you go magic up the next one!

Pretty please.

With a cherry on top!

(I'm not doing it, starting threads makes me break out into a cold sweat!)

There's always one who thinks health and safety rules regarding PPE doesn't apply to them.

I do feel sorry for the gerbil that only had time to put one rigger boot on though!

BTW, has anyone here come across the cute but utterly manic degu.

No, but if we get some, I vote we rename the restaurant the Degu Station.
