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

Am thinking of staying for the weekend and was wondering what rooms were available does anyone know? Would like a sea view, access to a pool, and a hobby group to join.

Number 11 is free.

I am feeling mildly productive - I have finished most of the knitting of ds3’s sweater - I am knitting the collar now, then t’s left to do is to sew in the sleeves and the zip, then it’s done (and only two more to knit).

I’m going to have a break, though - ds2 is home for just over a week, from Australia, for a wedding, and I want to crochet a shawl as a gift for his girlfriend. Then I also need to knit a toy for dh - for years now I’ve made him a toy, as a gag gift, for his stocking - we’ve stopped doing stockings now, but I can’t forget the tradition. I have found a pattern for a lion who looks just like Parsley, the lion (if I give him a green mane and tail tuft) so that’s who he’s getting this year.

SDTG I think you mean 'wildly productive'!

Bloody hell! you've been busy. All I've managed today is to feed the cats, feed me, take my pills and jabbed myself in the stomach for the 22nd day in a row (over half way only another 19 to go then I can stop!!). And I'm exhausted!

Do we get to see a photo of the lion when he's done??

Can I book one without the pool? A trampoline and swing would be great!

Dumbo12 · 20/09/2024 22:19

Please may I have a chocolate cocktail? I got stuck in motorway traffic this afternoon and I'm still recovering!

Bannedontherun · 20/09/2024 22:22

@ifIwerenotanandroid that room is great booked It unpacked back at the bar now, another funny cocktail please.

Boiledbeetle · 20/09/2024 22:32

Should keep us going for a while.

I'm feeling slightly sozzled.

I'm getting the hang of this knitting lark!

Thank you for arranging this beautiful knitting for the quokkas.

I already have my knitting planned for the next couple of months (cardigan for me), but for Les Bas Bleus I would have felt I should help for solidarity’s sake.

Well if you feel like doing extra imaginary knitting the goats are likely to have eaten their jumpers by Sunday so....

Well, 12, 14 & 15 all have trampolines & sea views; but we're having a bit of trouble with the swings...

What’s the squirrel doing to that ball of wool in your post of 22:49, Boiled? It looks like it’s toying with a screw of metal similar to that found by another MN’s DH in her rather delicate area.

edit: its not it’s. I have not yet found the chocavodka in my room.
edit 2: perhaps I have.

I can live without the swing I'm sure there's one in the field next to the goats.

Can I book whichever room this one is

Les Bas Bleus, The Bluestocking...
ifIwerenotanandroid · 20/09/2024 22:55

... so I can send a maintenance man in to sort out the swing. Would you prefer one with 2 arms or 3?

The squirrel is a trainee gynaecologist. She's practising on wool balls before being allowed near humans!

Of course. That's #15. It's available whenever you want it. The rooms here operate the same way as the booze (never runs out) & the food (no calories).

Are you sure she's not hiding nuts for the winter? I saw the start of that thread - did anyone work out what it was??

Bannedontherun · 20/09/2024 23:01

I have maintenance issues how far might he go? Thinking sex in the city. And the masseuse debacle.

The swings remind me of this
