The Breakfast Club

Good afternoon, Clunkers!

Welcome to the Breakfast Club where the kettle is permanently on, the drinks flow and the snacks are both self-replenishing and calorie-free.

We start each day with a look at history and a tribute to a brave or inspiring woman. Mostly though, we just chat randomly about current affairs, recipes, life in lockdown, literature, music and anything else that comes into our heads.

Veteran Clunkers welcome. Anyone else who wants to join in the chat - sense of humour essential! - welcome.

Kettle's on Brew

Good evening Nessa. Hope you are continuing to feel better and are looking after yourself.

yellowspanner · 11/10/2020 21:15

Neacy, who is giving us hate? Which thread?

thegcatsmother · 11/10/2020 21:17

Don't go there Yellow. It is not nice.

NessalovesSmithy · 11/10/2020 21:24

Thank you Yellow and Big Green.

Life's short, I recommend spending it looking for nice things ❤️️.

ZombieFan · 11/10/2020 21:48

Oh that thread is bad. People can be so nasty.

yellowspanner · 11/10/2020 21:49

But which thread? Not that I will go. I won't but am curious to know which one.

Neacy · 11/10/2020 21:50

As Cats mum says, don’t go there, it is not nice to read.

It’s in Chat, you will find it.

@DivGirl

Hi guys, nice to see you all again.
Hello DivGirl 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

Glad you are here. ❤️

BakedCam · 11/10/2020 22:19

Just dropping in on a chilly autumnal evening. Nice to see old friends finding us too.

Crankley · 11/10/2020 23:01

Tracy - I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

I 'm sorry, Lily, I probably drove you mad earlier sending messages - it's down!, it's up!, it's down! No, it's up! I hope you will have recovered by tomorrow morning for OTD.

LilyLangtrey · 11/10/2020 23:12

Cam, in the flurry of excitement, I lost the news that your GD has a half plaster on to protect the hairline fracture. I'm glad she has been X rayed and something has been done for her. What a fortnight you've had!

Crankley, no worries. It was a fast changing situation. In fact, my head was spinning.

It has been a right old day and a half, hasn't it? But we are here, still in touch with each other, and that's the main thing. Whatever might be said on other threads, the fact is that the Breakfast Club is - and was - a place of good humour, courtesy, support and friendly chat.

We managed to reach over 300 pages, over 6000 posts, with roughly 60 posters on board. There was never a cross word, no deletions, no complaints and no interventions ever required from Admin. Our record is clean.

So this is what I propose. We re-open for business tomorrow morning as usual with an OTD. Hopefully, Tracy will have mustered the butlers to provide breakfast as usual. For the moment, we carry on as we have always done - this will give us time to catch our breath and work out what to do next.

All Clunkers, Penguins, Dorisers and Crafters welcome. (A hint would be nice Smile). There are about 33 of us on here and 31 in the red place, although at least a dozen are signed up to both. That gives us roughly a head count of roughly 50 between the two.

I think we will reach the 1k limit on this thread within a week, but a week will give us a breathing space while we decide the way forward.

Hope that's OK with everyone.

I am aware that this thread will be watched with interest by external eyes for the tiniest scrap of unacceptable behaviour but we Clunkers have never engaged in that sort of behaviour anyway so all we have to do is be our normal selves.

All will be well, one way or another.

Sleep well, Clunkers. See you all in the morning. Smile

Sounds good to me!

Where's the 'Like' button! Smile

Good night, all.

Neacy · 11/10/2020 23:30

Night everyone, speak tomorrow. ❤️

NessalovesSmithy · 11/10/2020 23:56

Night all, I'm surprisingly still up, my little cat hasn't come home, he is like the boy around town. He's got a little space with a self heating blanket. Time for my pill and off to bed, but I don't like leaving him out.

ZombieFan · 12/10/2020 01:06

Wow wish I could press a like button on that last post of Lilys. 🧡🧡🧡

CathulhuRising · 12/10/2020 06:31

HELLO!
Thought I'd check in here aswell as the other place.
What a shock eh. But so glad we have all found each other across the boards.

lifestooshort123 · 12/10/2020 06:44

Hello everyone!! Gosh, that was a bit traumatic yesterday, wasn't it? Lovely to see you all (though it took some detective work). I tried to defend us on the nasty thread but was beaten down - sorry. Please take me with you when decisions are made. Hellooooo!

BakedCam · 12/10/2020 06:58

Morning, Clunkers,

A beautiful post, Lily. I'm signed up for that.

Yes, she is proudly sporting her plaster cast, which we have all signed. Mr S was glad to be home last night as in our home. I have missed the comforting sound of his snoring.

Glad to hear Chairman Miaow is fully recovered after his illness.

Message, I hope your puddy cat came home, I wouldn't want to leave him out either.

Off for a patrol of the news, while I get some coffee on.

lifestooshort123 · 12/10/2020 06:59

P.S I've joined the coloured site but can't make head nor tail of it (hangs head in shame). I'd hate to lose you all again.

@BakedCam

Thank you!

GreenSkin · 12/10/2020 07:13

Morning!

I know a couple of others.

GreenSkin · 12/10/2020 07:13

One will definitely not return here though.
