The Bluestocking Women’s Pub - Where Everybody Knows Your Username

[MarieDeGournay]

Welcome to the Bluestocking Arms, the home of good company, excellent drinks and delicious cakes which magically have no irksome contents like gluten or sugar or calories or the kind of alcohol that causes problems - but you wouldn't know

Food and drink are served by a keen staff of gerbils, and other animals such as capybaras, quokkas, etc., also fulfil vital roles, while looking cute AF.

New Bluestockingers always welcome.

I can't imagine why Bing found the concept in any way confusing. 😂😂

Will someone tell me when it's over?🫣

We are just on the final safety briefing. Poor Gertrude has just thrown up. I'm not sure if it's nerves or because she got the brocolli costume.

I don't believe that Gerkin getting the gerkin costume was just chance.

No indeed, very hard to explain.

we need a Hard Stare emoticon

And we are off.

Up first, the brave little trooper that she is, Germoleen...

A magnificent take off.
And she nails the landing.

Well done Germoleen.

Next up is Garcie dressed every so cutely as sweetcorn.

Can she match Germoleen's impressive performance?

And she does!

Perfect take off, high enough to get a loop in and totally showing off there with her landing on the string lights

Brava!

And they are coming thick and fast now, Glenda, Gladys and Gerrie up next

Such talented gerbils!

This sort of thing must take a deal of training.
( after W S Gerbil, 1887)

Giggles

Hooray. Can I open both eyes now?

Oh well done the vegerbils.
I think.they all deserve extra doughnuts for effort, skill and bravery.

Many gerbils later...

And finally we have Gigi, the youngest member of our flying vegetable troop on her way to the roof...

And she absolutely nails the landing.

Bravo gerbils!

<wipes tear from eye>

Bravo.

Three cheers for the vegerbils!
Hip hip.....

.

Boily, that gif is weird.

I think they are all, and rightly so, rather pleased with themselves.

I see snowballs and teacakes have not been shared

"Staff canteen" made me laugh.

<Snorts>

As if!

Magnificent vegerbils! I see they haven't been neglecting their Cirque du Gerbilles training!

Giant wombat is concerned about the working time directive. The gerbils have been working for at least 12 hours by now and need a sleep, or some downtime or they will be rude tomorrow. And we can't have that.

Giant wombat brought a teacake to pacify Boily, but she doesn't look pacified.

I'm so proud. My heart was in my mouth but they made it look so easy.

They definitely should have a rest now.
