Welcome all. The booze here is minimally intoxicating, the food is calorie free and the staff are warm and cuddly. And if the thread title sounds nonsensical, blame the guy Myrtle was listening to this evening!

This pub really does know how to throw an impromptu party. Nice to be let off marshmallow toasting duties for once too.

I think the lion arrived just in time to gently tuck Banned in.

Got my interview tomorrow lunchtime. Can't think of a better way to prepare than toasting marshmallows over the firepit with you lot 💜🤍💚

Good luck for tomorrow - I shall be sending you lots of good vibes, @Magpiecomplex.

The dance routines are great now, but the spelling still needs a bit of work.

I'm sorry I missed last night's bash. I'd been out all afternoon and was bushed.

Good luck for thr interview, Magpie. Knock their socks off.

Good luck magpie

Hope it goes well @Magpiecomplex

Now can some gerbils get on with tidying the garden after last nights party.

The goats have cleared up all the edibles (and by ‘edible’ they mean rather more than most animals would). We sometimes forget about them but there’s a reason they were one of the first animals to arrive at the Bluestocking.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 06/05/2025 12:58

Ds1 has a bet on with his dad. He has said that, by the time he is 40, he will have owned a goat for a whole year - and if not, he'll pay dh £50. It'll probably only buy a Mars bar, but we are looking forward to this windfall. 😂😂😂

I hope the interview is going well, @Magpiecomplex - they would be fools not to hire you, in my entirely unbiased opinion.

Magpiecomplex · 06/05/2025 14:46

Done. Did my best, gave fulsome answers to everything and they did lots of scribbling. Should hear later this week, apparently.

And I saw a magpie on my way out, so that's clearly a good omen!

of course. You’ve got the advantage (should you be superstitious) that if you see a magpie then you’re on two for joy straightaway.

MarieDeGournay · 06/05/2025 17:17

Well done, Magpie - we're keeping everything crossable crossed for youSmile

FlowerUser · 06/05/2025 17:47

I've realised that Bluestockingers are just as hilarious in other Feminism threads.

Particularly Why are TERFs so well organised co.pare to us?

We've reached a high of lemon drizzle cake.

Excellent, it clearly is, and I completely agree with Errol’s excellent comment.

Boiledbeetle · 06/05/2025 18:58

The gerbils send their apologies if service is non existent tonight. They've laid on a buffet (left overs from last night) in the grounds floor pool room and the bar hatch is unlocked so just help yourselves.

They have a surprise rush order of cakes for a GC cell that needs doing NOW!

I would have liked to see a proper critical path analysis from the gerbils at this point but its only cake!

Magpiecomplex · 06/05/2025 19:11

There's time to teach them about critical path analysis if the bakery business takes off.

We may have to bribe the Council for the food hygiene certificate.

I'll get some of our far right millions out of the vault!

Magpiecomplex · 06/05/2025 19:15

That would be an excellent use of the money. Good idea Boily!
