AIBU in thinking that the IPOAT hall has transported to another dimension

[Minimammoth]

Where has it gone? Just as I was about to start sprucing it up for the jubilee and start tatting the bunting?

Oh I'm not reading it. I can't stand all the waffle. You make changes through action I find not by sitting around theorising and moaning.

Tisane?

Oh god yes.

I had a couple of tisanes last night and then ds came home at 5.50 am with two friends and woke me up. Feeling a little frayed.

Oh dear yes. I am beginning to like the sound of dowager. I set up a moan on 'politics' and set them off I fear. I think I shall go for a doze in the orangery, as befits my great age. Send a posset.

Oh perhaps I should hang out in politics, is it more civilised? Do they tatt?

I think they are mostly being left or right. Ding or dong. A bit of tatting would do 'em good.

I'd get them all tatting.

I'm doing a microflounce by the way. I'll be back when it's a bit less mental :(

So so so mental

yet weirdly fascinating

Am gutted didn't save the deleted thread. All that material

Wotwossitabout Hully

oh don't go there

just don't

wait for the play

Hully I shall have to apply the thumscrews. It will affect the tatting.
Thumscrews. Spelly thingy, humph. Like thumscrews as a word though. Not IRL though. It could be a bit shades of grey though.

Too many thoughs. Tis my age. Nods off.

Zzzzzzzzz

That's a bugger about you car, Mini.

I might join you in the orangery. Footstools and palms and an unlimited supply of tisanes. Must we wear bonnets? I have ear trumpets and tatted tartan blankets for our knees.

Hully, in a fit of insomnia (or perhaps better, in a languor of insomnia) I saw that thread. You're a braver woman than I

See. I knew that our collective tatting of the Higgs boson would get results.

Ah yes. The Science is showing progress. Shall we get a plaque as thanks?

Miss Fiderer. One is feeling pissed off an overwhelming heaviness in the bladder, I have heard the my pretty carriage is a write off. Full of water they said, over the bonnet they said, it must have been deep. At least they sounded sympathetic, today the haggling begins. I will need a robust tisane.

Practise your Dowager's Eye so as to wither any impertinence.

I see the insanity outwith the Hall continues. 'Tis surely a sign that the Apocralypse approaches?

Best get those bosons whizzing around the ha ha to fend off the madness.

Yes for sooth it is mad. I started an 'I'm fed up of hearing politicians say this' on politics topic and they have definitely twisted their stays. Am not going back there. < rocks in chair hugging mug of chocolate>
We should marshal the bosons, crank up the collider and pull up the draw bridge. I noticed MN have flagged a full moon warning as the madness continues.
Nice detail there Umami, I particularly like the bankers section the bit with the scorpions is most life like.

A Ah I read apo crap lypse

ApoCRAPlypse very apposite.

Just popped back from my micro flounce to see if it's still madness outside the Hall and it is so will pop off again.

Can you let me have the pattern for the Higgs Boson thingy as I have quite a bit of thread left over from when I tatted the cover for the Hadron Collander

Oh I miss Entropygirl. She'd have all this sorted

Hello all!

What larks there have been!

I have been quite mad, but hopefully a light tisane will restore all.

Not sure if mad or fearless, Hully.

Ages ago when a lovely poster, largeginandtonic, was being taken for granted for childminding, there was a long thread spurring her on. I remember it as it was the first thread here I posted a lot on. Someone recommended she don a pith helmet. By the end she had chin straps, a spike, much sharpened. Possibly also a spear, and poisoned tips.

Thought of it again as it occurred to me that similar attire seems advisable when venturing around MN these days.

Wonder if she still posts. Off to the Archive.
