The Bluestocking - holding the line and losing the thread

[lcakethereforeIam]

All women welcome, pull up a pygmy hog, the bargerbil will serve you a drink, the flying squirrels will bring you something to read and the goats will do...I'm not entirely sure.

There may be more than the usual amount of chaos as we transition to the new thread.

Sorry I’m late. I was knitting (two more squares).

Also it took ages to get ready.

But I’m here now.

Just in time for the musical turns, Myrtle, lucky you😏

What’s your singing like @MyrtleLion ?

I’ve added a picture of me singing my karaoke classic, Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves, but it’s under review. Probably because my dress is very short.

Just in time to sing a duet with me, Myrtle!

Well, I don’t like to boast, but I did win the work karaoke competition when I sang That Ole Devil Called Love at the Christmas party in 2002…

Hit it, Myrtle!

I'm not pogo-ing. I'm still tied to the bungee and, somehow, it's got caught round the light fitting.

Can I have a go after Myrtle? I'll do the Contours' 'Do You Love Me?' as danced to by me & my old squeeze at Boston Dynamics. And our dog. And whatever that thing was. Happy times, bigly happy times.

I love that video Android, I didn't realise you had a starring role!

Oh yes. Of course, I've undergone a few refits since then.

I don’t want to be rude or anything, but did you finish the ironing?

Does anyone want a cocktail shaking? I might as well make myself useful.

Eta I did finish the ironing. There may be a few scorch marks and the iron may have holed the deck on its way into the hold.

I don’t know much about cocktails, but I’ll take one please. Don’t know what to ask for so I’ll just have whatever you fancy making. But make yourself one as well….

Yes please!

A Manhattan. No cherry.

Here is my knitting from today. The pattern had the RS on the even numbered rows, which was slightly confusing, so I’ll sew them in tomorrow.

Image approval is taking time.

Please include me out for the karaoke. I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.

You’re in good company @JanesLittleGirl

Manhatten, brilliant. I was going to suggest a gimlet but that might have confused Gimlet.

Good job I've still got my sea legs. Hate to think how I'd be feeling otherwise.

Ooh, stripey.😍

I can't think of anything to sing so I'll sit quietly with Jane and we'll comment on your performances 'Ooh, she really brought it, didn't she?' 'No so sure about that, a bit pitchy..'
eta ...and glad to see that Swash is available to be the third judge

I might as well jump 🎶

Hey, gerbils & Cake! Can you do me an Upton's Downfall, please? If you don't know how to make it, just ask Naomi.

It was a great picture of me in a black minidress, singing my heart out. But it’s not approved yet.

Gosh that must be some photo, Myrtle, if they're still considering it!!

Upton's Downfall? I'm not familiar with that but I suspect it tastes sweet.
