I've nicked a title, opened the door, dusted off the bar.

Come in and drown your sorrows, celebrate or just hang out in good company.

It is bloody marvellous news. Hop, skip and a cake eat through the weekend at The Blue Stocking, you'll soon be in your new home.

...I'm trying to pick out beds...I think I need tea! The shelter won't let you cook or make hot drinks. I've been smuggling potatoes and tea for almost a year!

Detroit!!!!!!! Yeeeee-hiiii! Grin Flowers Grin

How glorious to see you here - pull up a chair (and yes, please avoid the camel). Fabulous fabulous news... What can I get you?

And for anyone who hasn't met Detroit, I recommend you pull up a chair too - she's one hell of a story-teller and has one hell of a story.

Had we better move on to the next incarnation of the pub before this one runs out of room?

Sheesh Detroit, you've caused me to unlurk. And that hasn't happened for a loooong time.

Absolutely thrilled to hear your news. Utterly, utterly wonderful.

While I'm here, I'll have a pint of gin, easy on the tonic. That DH peaked thread pissed me off mightily too.

A bit early for anything stronger than a coffee so am settling down in a corner with a cappuccino to ponder what possible connections there might be between the Jubilee weekend and the many zombie threads that are being resurrected round these parts...
