<Sniggers>

Not more beetle eggs????

loving her frou frou! (skirt)

Thankfully no! Just real actual snowballs.

Shame all the actual snowballs got left on the last thread.

<kicks tunnocks box further under the table with left foot>

What do you mean”unpacked” where are the gerbils, why is beetle giggling, where is my drink?

Sniffs is somebody wibbing me?

OMG BOILED HAS BIRTHED.

Well i am not erm Beatle sitting, might be tempted to eat it.

Oh - sorry - was that you on a big plate with a glass dome over your head and a silver cake slice sticking out of your ribcage? Sorry, Cake, I didn't recognise you!

Congratulations, Boily, 'I never Dreamed your Union had been Blessed with Issue'
Source, anyone? [that's a quiz question, not a question question]

At the tribunal i learnt all about a user name which could otherwise be described as mischievous fanny.

I had not worked it out until one of us lot chanted it….

I was the one who started the chanting of the wonderfully efficient N's name! In my accent, it just sounds like how it's written, with a clear flat A sound in the last syllable, no double entendre at all.

Honestly, some people..🙄

Pull the other one ….😁

THEY ARE NOT MINE!!!!

(PLEASE DONT LET THEM BE MINE)

I'M NOT CUT OUT FOR MOTHERHOOD

have you thought about adoption

No, seriously, I'm upset about that, I hope N. doesn't think it was intentional - d'you think I should PM her to tell her I'm sorry about it?🙁

Just as soon as I've finished registering the births

Barbara
Betty
Brenda
Bonnie
Bella
Bertha
Brianna
Bethany
...

God this is going to take forever!

If it helps I read it as naughty cant

Boily, are some of the gerbils accomplished babysitters?

Good call

How did that ladybird sneak in there?

That one, Lisa, is just visiting!

The runt of the litter??

@Myrtle how are you feeling today?

<saunters in... grumpily>

I see we've moved.

This bodice is too tight for me. And I'm really not cut out for frou-frou skirts...

I was nearly locked in the craft room and I've had to move all the models myself because all the gerbils left without checking.

And there are beetles. A lot of beetles.

Still tired, but I've been making models - very fiddly. And I didn't make the shortlist for a role I was told to apply for. Five months since I lost my job and not a single interview yet. Very demoralising.

Thank you for asking xx

Those baby beetles look very regimented. I’m worried that the babysitting gerbil is too draconian. Or, is it in beetle nature to line up like that?

If I wore a frou frou skirt I think I’d look very like one of the Roly Polys who featured on TV with Les Dawson. Until they saw me move, that is. I think they were all good dancers.
