You're ok with the rest of us around, puffling.

(In case anyone is wondering about the wisdom of having a dragon around, Errol was of course a swamp dragon whose tastes ran more to coal, scuttle included.)

Hi all after an exciting day in the Supreme Court can i have a chilling long gin please.

I have something to tell you all

<sucks in a breath and coughs awkwardly>

i have realised that i am in love with hedgehogs, and that i would like to identify as one. I would like to keep my name as banned but can people now accept me as a hedgehog,

i do not actually look like one, or eat bugs or anything like that, but portrayals of me as a hedgehog (should one choose to refer to me in the third person) would be much appreciated.

Also i have learnt that hedgehogs like snowballs and tea cakes, oh and gin.

This is me in bed and me in my new house

Thanks in anticipation

Can I politely ask what pronouns you prefer, as a hedgehog?

Erm….. Heg

They didn't go without a struggle... the diving one in the third pic is planning on choking the seagull with a large crisp so it can make its escape

Is that Erm Heg, Heg, or Heg Heg?

Where the heck am I ?
Is this a Public House ? If so , please may I have a Campari and soda ?
( I was looking for the Women's Department but I think I took a wrong turn just after the pet shop .)
I fought a badger for a hedgehog recently ; I won , with help from my brave little dog , but it was deeply unpleasant and I am still traumatised .

That might be not such a daft idea... but don't try the third one, I'm sure the seagull isn't fooled by that

For @Bannedontherun , your Hegness...

Welcome! Yes, this is a women's pub, also a sort of 'room of requirement' and AI image factory.

I've never had a Campari and soda, 🥤 (gosh, there's an emoji for it) - what do they taste like? Always looks medicinal.

Here's a present for you, Banned, to help you celebrate your transition to hedgehog

I located the thread easily by doing an advanced search for 'spiky little hate potato' ...

I think it's a collar with a bow. I'm obviously several gins in. It's got a bit turned round.

@larklane17 and everyone scrap er heg i like Hegness tis fab gives me a sense of self (importance) yeah!

Welcome @Myfluffyblanket - Campari and soda as requested

Thanks Errol thread is funny

@Myfluffyblanket Welcome to the mad house pub!!!

Welcome@Myfluffyblanket
@Bannedontherun May I remind you and your drinking companions Hegness ...
<points to sign>

Hedgehogs are Banned in this bar.

Thank you Errol , Banned and Inky for the warm welcome .
Campari and sodas all round . (Campari is old and bitter , like me)

@larklane17 Excellent play on words right up my hedgehog street.

Ahhh so cute

Boiled i wanna t shirt of that so if any of us crossed paths we would know. Everyone should have one of their own AI, eminence Is there any way of downloading this image?

Hello fluffy. Welcome to the alternative world of the Bluestocking pub. Where gerbils, quokkas and capybara do all the work.

AI is very selective about whom it allows to appear in the picture. It always tries to sneak some beardy men in, but if you make it remove the men, it takes out half the customers as well, and put in some nobody asked for such as a peculiar looking white rabbit.

also, egregious nipple baring ....

OMG 😱

I'm so sorry @Myfluffyblanket I hadn't realised I was wrapped in a fellow pub dweller! At least that explains the multiple Campari and sodas the gerbils have been delivering to my table. It also explains the grumbling. I thought it was wind, turns out it was Blankie asking me to stop sitting on her.

Sorry 💐

Have fallen impossibly behind after busy week and weekend, but am enjoying popping in every-so-often... except that every time I do, the first thing I seem to see is seagulls waging war on all manner of things. They seem to be getting more violent by the day!

Still, as long as they don't steal my beer-battered fish and chips, I'm good.
