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.

It's a filled wafer coated with milk chocolate.

Distinctly like a Tunnocks caramel wafer but not actually one. Do you think I can sneak it past Boily...

On a recent Gardeners Question Time I heard they are a considered a rare exotic plant with their wonderful clocks in Singapore, with seeds being sold online and dandelion artworks in the airport!

And an added bonus of this place is that everyone can pronounce ‘scone’ however they choose and no one will know if you’re doing it wrong.

Yes it's a roe deer ... how funny that your first thought was of pie! Luckily for the deer, I am a vegetarian,

(BUT I eat fish, I know, it's a terrible flaw and I'm not a REAL vegetarian sorry sorry) (not a real moose neither) (aargh)

and my first thought on noticing the deer was "ooh, it's a deer, how lovely" or something along those lines 🤣

And there's an extra beetle, of course 😂

It's just a wannabe.

It's actually Gertrude who declared herself no longer a gerbil but a beetle last night. She's passing rather well, she had me fooled for a good half an hour that she was actually my long lost aunt Brenda.

You mean a " wannabeetle"

Oh for a 😂 button

😂

Oh yes wouldn't that be LOVELY?

"wannabeetle"

😂

You can try

Reading the name, I want to say, "Scorchio!". (I re-watched some Fast Show eps recently.)

Oh, so did I. I loved the Fast Show back in the day, and still think most of it has stood the test of time rather well. What's your favourite?

My children and I still quote it endlessly..."Gripped, sorted, let's off road".

@FuzzyPuffling has expressed my feelings far better than I could, @Swashbuckled.

Sending you and your dd loads of gentle hugs and love.

It is our wedding anniversary today.

Congratulations @FuzzyPuffling and Mr Fuzzy!

Happy anniversary

Happy anniversary!

I still quote "smooth" whenever some terrible jazz comes on!

I don't understand how Boily found me! You should see the destruction she made in our hotel room getting the wafer bar out of the fridge!

That's a full bottle of white we bought at the wine tasting yesterday.

I mean it has to be her, right? The Walrus wouldn't have opened the door and let it fall, would he? 🤔

It was me! Sorry! Plus I see I accidentally left my Crocs behind in my rush to depart.

Oh yes. "The famous hat, Baz," still gets an outing when DH dons a hat.

Did they do the scientist going, "Come see, Dave - it's beautiful, man"? I use that one a lot.

Happy anniversary, Pufflings! I couldn't decide between these two; maybe they show nibbles & then a cake.

I see you have purple ones just like me and massive ones for size 12 feet...

I prefer them that way, it's always handy to have somewhere to grab a quick snooze. If they are too small a size I have to lie on them rather than in them!

???

Thank you for all the puffin anniversary wishes. I showed them to DH who looks bemused but pleased!

We still say "Contrapuntal? You decide" for all jazz related things.
