The Bluestocking: where conversation should supersede cards

[MyrtleLion]

The Blue Stockings Society was founded by women emphasising education and mutual cooperation. Men could attend as invited guests, but in this Women's Pub, they are only welcome to peer enviously through the windows.

All women welcome!

All tastes catered for.

All food containing calories will not increase waistlines.

All drink containing alcohol will not intoxicate beyond the mildy merry and slightly inhibited stage. Guaranteed no hangovers.

Don't mind the gerbils, hamster, capybaras, quokkas and other assorted rodents. They're all female, all staff and very accommodating...

Oh good lord, nevermind candyfloss I think they fell into a twee machine!!

Found them. They're having too much fun. They'll take ages to settle into bed now.

Oh man, I wanna be where the gerbils are,,,,,,

And this kids is what happens when you go on the waltzers ten times in a row

They're going to be very sticky after clutching that candyfloss in their hot hairy little paws, I hope the capybaras let them have a little wallow in the shallow end of the onsen before they come in for the night.

I will attempt some knitted slothery, or slothery knitting, at some point, and post pictures.

But we have more shit incoming imminently in real life, so probably not for a little while..

I'll be popping into the Bluestocking pretty regularly for a large drink and some cheering up, though. Can depend on the world's greatest pub for that.

Also this...

I was just trying to find the craft rooms to see if the supplies have arrived. But I think I got all turned around. The layout seems different.

Did we take a different turn to the new thread this time? Would explain the floors being all wrong. The fifth floor is usually the glorious bedrooms but is currently housing a capybara pool party.

I'm very confused.

What’s Chag?

The Bluestocking is a brilliant place to get lost in.

Sorry about the pigs. They been telt

Just to revisit the last thread, is Book Nook pronounced buk nuk or bewk newk or some combination? If it's bewk newk then I'm afraid I can't have one in the house.

Also, we have an onson?

That's a very indecisive signpost! Except for Chag. It seems to be very clear on where Chag is.

Probably best not to ask! Or find out!

I know where Chagford is. It's Chag by.the stream.

They had better be buk nuk! The other version...

No!

Just NO!

I'm glad most of the gerbils had.a nice day off. They may need another day off to recover.

I asked. Apparently it's a Hebrew word for holiday or festival. I suppose one could define a capybara pool party as a festival?

At least they had a good time! The down from the sugar high is going to be brutal!

Is that gerbil confusing a goldfish for a clownfish? Poor thing no wonder you’re concerned about the come down.

At this point I'm not even sure if the gerbil knows it's own name! And I'm trying to work out why the fish is hoarding skittles!

I hope that gerbil is going to clean its teeth before it goes to sleep. That stripy lolly is currently coating them with sugar.

Does The Bluestocking’s in-house medical facility also treat the small helpers?

‘Fish are friends not food’ he’s hoarding for the gerbil’s sugar dip.

I mean medicine is not one of my skills, but I'll give it a go. I'll just finish my tenth pint whilst you get the patient.

Can I pull up a pew in the craft room please? I'll stick to tea though as I have an early start. Loving the animal pics, both living and stuffed.

EEEEEK
