The Bluestocking - Raiders of the Lost Sparp

[lcakethereforeIam]

Welcome everyone. Wipe your feet, it's been wet out.

Don't forget to namechange before posting if necessary.

The Balrog is the monster that lurks in the dwarf mines of Moria, and kills Gandalf, I think.

Strictly speaking it’s Gandalf that kills the Balrog isn’t it? After they descend to the depths Gandalf eventually returns but we never see the Balrog again.

Shall I start the next thread as we're on p39?

She was struggling to find another acting job after Fellowship. She was really down in the dumps.

Just chuck a bucket of cow's wee over it. Instant soursludge.

New thread is here:

But fill up this one first. There's no rush but I know you lot. I'll go to bed and someone else will have started the thread before I'm awake.

If I'm not back before the end,not this thread, could someone repost the link on the last page?

Oops, jumped the gun a bit.

Thanks Myrtle, lovely intro.

Would goat wee work?

Um
@Boiledbeetlejuice said
"I got more than I bargained for when I asked for a depiction
The scene has thickened like a well-fed levain..."

I did not know what that was. A new word!
I am very pleased to see that boiled beetlejuice has got it all under control and the annexe is no longer needed.

I know it is late and also past my bedtime but I really wanted just a little lesson. So worth it

I think it is good to wipe our feet after returning from a journey. Mentally.

Is it? Why?

how do I mentally wipe my feet ?

You take all the good and bad moments you go through on the road and leave them at the door of your house everytime you walk through the front door.

Thank you, I will try that.

Does this mean you are returning to the Bluestocking after a journey? If so, welcome back!

I'd like to keep the good moments though.
I take my shoes off ( or boots, in this weather). I have some questions.
Do the moments remain in the cleats of my boots til next time?
Is it a case of " right boot good, left boot bad"?
Suppose I wear different boots next time?
Do moments mind being stomped on?

I was out all evening yesterday and missed the wonderful image and ditty. Wonderful that I brought my knitting but I dread to think what the hash will do to my stranded colourwork.

It's cold wet and miserable, I feel the pub move may go slowly if we don't get a break in the weather.

Is there any food still in the kitchen? Or did that go on one of the overnight vans?

Good morning! You're all still here. Wonderful!

I'm pasting Nick Wallis' tweets at Sara Morrison v Belfast Film Festival this morning.

I see some of you have popped your head round the door at the new place, but it's better to stay here until the decorators and carpet layers have finished.

It was a pleasure.

God you are just so adorable I just want to squish you. (In a nice way obviously, not in a squeeze you into a cupboard and lock you behind a door way. That's just the sourbread starter we are doing that to)

WHERE ARE MY SOCKS?

I left 3 pairs on the radiator to warm and now they are gone.

Who moved my socks?

I refuse to move until my socks are returned. Its way too cold for a beetle to be wandering around sockless.

Oh I think Grellin one of the junior gerbils may be to blame

Are you sure that's a sock? Looks more like a mitten! Anyone missing a mitten?

I can't get Spartipuss into her travel basket. She wants cheese Dreamies. Anyone seen them?
