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.

I think that qualifies as a small holding at the very least

Yeah, it probably does

Well... It has to house my pet lion as well, and her pet walrus!

It's getting very crowded!

I may move into the village!

You can share with me as long as you don't identify as either woodworm or death watch beetle.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.Tap.Tap.

Nooooooo!

Is it time to get moving to a new thread?

I'd just like my house and garden to be self cleaning.

I was weeding today and startled a vole. Tiny little fat thing but very very speedy when alarmed.

Well you had me at 'miniature things', Banned, but then you clarified that you love miniature things not that you have miniature things so.. sorry, it's not you, it's me

Last night I was having so much fun with my fellow Stockingers that I forgot to do the laundry, and forgot to order my repeat prescription😦so I'm signing off for a bit to do some practical things.

Would it be OK if I reposted Swash's room on the new thread, because she might not see it on this one?
I love all your houses, and wish I could make models of them all - in fact a scale model of the whole village! I really wish I could do that😞

I see everyone is carefully ignoring my question so I suppose I'll start the new thread!

New thread

Come on everyone, time to get a wiggle on. Someone organise the rodents, and someone else can look after the marsupials. Don't forget the quolls but for the love of miniature things please make sure we leave the death watch beetle behind!

Well that was the plan 😂

thank you xxx

I have the erm nibbles ….

I'll see you on the other side

I'll round up the pigs and goats, makes sure the squirrels are awake and have packed up the library.

Don't forget to namechange, if you need to, before posting on the new thread.

The capybara are the best when it comes to moving day!

I'll leave a note jic the seagulls show up again. The scarlet ibises are looking a bit bewildered.

Helloo?

Umph. Can't keep up!

Whistles a little tune

Is that in the Real Blue Stocking, or is it another model you have made? 😮

Oh there's nothing to see here! I shall go and find the bus.

wanders off thoughtfully

I don’t like posting on the new threads until the old one has fulfilled its destiny. But I just don’t know what to say.

presumably the cove and all the various boats stay where they are and don’t need moving?

You have to straddle the threads to ensure a moving process, pass me the rum collection ….

I was just thinking about that.
Trying to make sense of the moving when we end up in the same place.
I mean, I see it as a magical phenomenon. Reminds me of the land at the top of the Faraway tree, and the rush to get back down.
But, what is it in Badley Fuckitt terms as opposed to Mumsnet terms.
I’m all out of my depth.

I see it as similar to the Mad Hatter's tea party. We're just moving along one space!

Where’s Colin hiding?
My old dachshund once disappeared completely. Turned out he’d burrowed too far down my bed, rolled off the end and was caught as it was firmly tucked in - like a hammock. I really don’t know what he was doing for air but he seemed none the worse when I liberated him.

Ah…hammocks…there you are Colin, in the one slung in the orchard. We’ll take that along with us too.
