En franglais, in English .... open to all women for company, fun and fabulous artworks. Leave unwanted reality in the porch and come along in.

You look like a variation on a butterfly cake!

Sorry... Let's go with Boiled's ones. This has shades of the Dish of the Day at Milliways.

Saviez-vous que... Le pub Bluestocking est disponible dans tous les pays.

I spotted it whilst Mags was flying me around like superwoman

Oops. I'm relying on a week's worth of Franglais lessons with three men that cause me to being unable to concentrate and Google translate to be fair!

There are males too, but in Bluestocking franglais the articles for mixed groups default to the female form rather than the male. That's one of its significant improvements over French.
(Was anyone here not outraged in school French lessons by the idea that one man in a roomful of women would turn elles into ils?)

Ah yes, Errol only mentioned the plural. I think we can reassign the singular as well. It's the Bluestocking, we can do as we damned well please!

After many years of French lessons my sum total of what I actually learnt boils down to:

Je m’appelle Boiled, je vis dans le Pérou le plus sombre et le plus profond

and don't ask me why, or how, but I do know the french for soixante-neuf. (Oh Julien... Happy memories)

I'll be honest I spent most French lessons in High school sat on my own at a desk outside the head of year's office!

Je ne comprend pas la 69 thingy. Avez vous une number obsession?

Bannedontherun · 22/09/2024 20:34

Also, possible ces’ t les amount of snowballs tu mange per semaine? @Boiledbeetle

Bannedontherun · 22/09/2024 20:55

I loved cheers used to dash home to watch it then go out again

Boiledbeetle · 22/09/2024 20:58

@Bannedontherun totally to do with how many Snowballs I can eat it one go, and absolutely nothing to do with a tube ride in London many years ago that started off innocently with a packet of lemon flavoured polos and ended in a Frenchman's flat!

I asked CoPilot to write a rock song

Verse 1: In the heart of the city, there’s a place we call our own,
Where the lights are dim, and the spirits are grown.
No need for permission, no need for disguise,
In the Bluestocking pub, we rise, we rise.
Chorus: Bluestocking nights, where the women are free,
Raising our voices in harmony.
No chains to bind us, no walls to confine,
In the Bluestocking pub, we shine, we shine.
Verse 2: From the echoes of history, we draw our strength,
In a world that tried to silence, we go to any length.
With every toast, we honor those who came before,
In the Bluestocking pub, we roar, we roar.
Chorus: Bluestocking nights, where the women are free,
Raising our voices in harmony.
No chains to bind us, no walls to confine,
In the Bluestocking pub, we shine, we shine.
Bridge: We stand together, sisters in arms,
Breaking the silence, raising alarms.
In every heartbeat, in every song,
In the Bluestocking pub, we belong.
Chorus: Bluestocking nights, where the women are free,
Raising our voices in harmony.
No chains to bind us, no walls to confine,
In the Bluestocking pub, we shine, we shine.
Outro: So here’s to the nights, and here’s to the days,
In the Bluestocking pub, we find our ways.
With every step, with every line,
In the Bluestocking pub, we shine, we shine.

I don't know if you can get it to put it to music, but I mostly love the lyrics.

Any better, Cake?

I'm still wondering on what planet a wolf ever gets a chance to chase a quokka chucking tins of sparp at it.

And also hoping that my franglais will be up to the mark quand je marche out la porte de la pub demain et je me decouvrir en France.
