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.

ErrolTheDragon · 31/07/2025 23:14

Whoops.
bungee cord doesn’t exactly do nice simple harmonic motion like a well behaved chandelier.

Magpiecomplex · 31/07/2025 23:09

I'm exhausted from all that singing so I'm off to bed! Someone take pictures of Cake properly swinging from the chandelier please.

Ta-da!

I'm sure I'll regret it tomorrow when I hear the scandalous stories of how the party degenerated after I left, but I'm saying goodnight, it's been a long day..Smile

It was very special to have you with us tonight, dear Swash💙

G'night all, and may the Dreamgerbils bring us peaceful ones🌛

Right, that's it, I'm up next after Errol, straight outta Pedantry Corner with my rendition of
'You are the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of my airfoil' Grin

'You are the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of my airfoil'

Sorry, that was rude. A combination of singing, margaritas and aerobatics left me a bit lightheaded.Blush

So pleased to hear Bear is back home with @Swashbuckled.

Sorry to have missed a fun karaoke evening. Loved catching up with everyone’s songs. Bessie the Medical Badger would have liked to have a go at the mic - torn between some upbeat Communards or something more soothing for the quiet end of the evening like Tears In Heaven or even Alexandra Leaving, but I think she is just trying to sook up to me with that last suggestion.

If there are any gerbils still on duty I’ll have a Mexican mule please.

Sleep well all.

ErrolTheDragon · 31/07/2025 23:44

No, Gossie, put Magdalena back in the paddock…not that sort of Mexican mule.

lcakethereforeIam · 31/07/2025 23:52

Oh-oh I'm halfway there-eh, whoa-ho! Danglin' in mid-air 🎶

Night all. I'll just rock myself to sleep.🤘

I suppose I could try burning through the cord if you’re hinting you want to come down? The gerbils etc can spread out a blanket to catch you in. probably.

lcakethereforeIam · 31/07/2025 23:58

Would you? I'm bursting for the loo.

ErrolTheDragon · 01/08/2025 00:02

It’s august! Does that mean we can say happy birthday to beetle and Cher now?

lcakethereforeIam · 01/08/2025 00:02

Thank you. Excuse me.....

Missed the party. Boo hoo, I'm such a lightweight! 😞

Gerbils, please provide paracetamol for many.

Chersfrozenface · 01/08/2025 07:11

'Morning. I seem to have passed out fallen asleep in a corner last night and missed a lot of the singing. I'm so disappointed at that - not sure about the tunefulness, but the song choices and lyrics were brilliant, from what I read.

No hangover (this is the Bluestocking, after all) but I'm very stiff. An orange juice, a pain au chocolat and several heat pads, please. Do we have a resident physio?

ErrolTheDragon · 01/08/2025 08:59

I think we’ve physios of several species, according to your needs. Spartipus is good at that Japanese technique of walking over your back, and general pummelling, for instance.

Oh, er, yes, well, I think I might be a tad too delicate for pummelling. Or sports massage. <shudders>

Something gentle and soothing, please.

The gerbils have little mitts to cover their claws and are lovely and gentle.
You can have actual heat pads or a choice of warm animals.

ErrolTheDragon · 01/08/2025 09:25

Meanwhile I need more tea
