First in!!!

Thanks Magpie

WhiteHairedMyrtle · 31/12/2024 19:39

Great to be here!

Name changed on the anniversary of Android taking me drinking. I was young once!

BTW, Android may be a while. I left her in a puddle of Aldebaran whisky while I popped in here. I'll go and retrieve her asap.

Thank you Magpie!

FuzzyPuffling · 31/12/2024 19:45

Aldebaran whisky is always a mistake. At least she was downed quickly and it didn't get to the bagpipes stage. Make sure she's warm and safe.

AlisonDonut · 31/12/2024 20:17

Dammit I left the teatowels on the radiator in the old place.

FuzzyPuffling · 31/12/2024 20:19

I've found Spartacus and Colin. They've already bagged the comfy chairs in Snug Corner.

S'alright, I crawled out of the thread an across the road to this one, like the terminator at the end of that film, I forget its name. Iss all good. I'm on the Prosecco now.

Well done, lil Fuzzy. You win Sex Realist of the Year.

Lovely to be here with you again this year, Myrtle. When I catch the bloke who dipped his hands in green paint, I'll taser him with my right index finger. Bloody cheek!

Shall I make a speech? Nah. I'll just clear a space on my mantlepiece.

Thanks @WhiteHairedMyrtle for sorting my transport below

I'll admit it was slightly embarrassing, but to be fair it was the only way I was getting here!

Can someone untie me please. And maybe set up a reinforced chair, or 12!

I've peeped through the curtains, it's very quiet round here. Which means more cake for us I guess. I just hope there is a coop where I can get supplies from round these parts.

<DONT PUT THOSE BOXES THERE, THEY GO IN THE SNUG>

FFS.

FuzzyPuffling · 31/12/2024 20:51

What happens in chat that doesn't happen in t'other place??

Lovelyview · 31/12/2024 20:53

Hello all, mine's a Cava & I'm sitting with a black cat on my lap. Hope everyone's had a good year and here's to the next one.

Lovelyview · 31/12/2024 20:55

I've just lit the wood burner as well.

Bannedontherun · 31/12/2024 20:57

Bannedontherun · 31/12/2024 21:06

well hello bodily hope you had a nice erm sleep <kicks box of snowballs under the table the one with a cloth>

If you were walking by and noticed a splendid hostelry called The Bluestocking Arms, please stop and pop in for a drink and a chat!

Although the drink is of the finest quality, it has magical properties so it does not result in the kind of inebriation that gets you into trouble; likewise, our delicious cakes and sweets do not contain calories, gluten, nor sugar - but you'd never know!

As if the regulars weren't entertaining enough, some of us also challenge AI to produce all sorts of fantastical images - highlighting the fact that AI can't spell, is unsure about the standard number of fingers on a human hand, and doesn't know what a blackbird is. We find that comforting.

There are several areas within the building, as well as the bar, including a very comfy snug, a games room [Lego, model railway, anything else you fancy] and Pedantry Corner where we occasionally have amiable chats about apostrophes and the likes.

Drinks and treats are served by a team of gerbils, quokkas, and other furry creatures; there are many other animals in the outdoor area but I've lost count -
stick around and a capybara dressed in a Christmas jumper may pass by with a hot chocolate, nattily-dressed degus, chinchillas in waistcoats and bow ties - if it's furry and cute, you'll find it here.

Real life is, largely speaking, left outside the Bluestocking so the imagination can run riot inside, but if real life is unfortunately unavoidable at some point, a comfy chair beside the fire in the snug is always available and a hot chocolate, or something stronger, will be served to you promptly by an attentive gerbil.

New Bluestockingers always welcomeSmile
