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 goat urine seems to have calmed the sour dough a bit. Are we leaving it hear or taking it to the next thread?

I've not seen the Dreamies, sorry.

That's definitely a short sock. That lump is the heel.

Morning all! Being a good girl (and a well-rested one after the best night's sleep for a very long time) I thought I'd do as Myrtle ordered requested and help to fill up the last page of the old thread. Currently nursing a tender upper arm after my oldies' autumn Covid booster yesterday and a cat whose digestive system has been on strike for the past couple of days. You do NOT want to hear the details, but he's currently on my bed convalescing with a long nap. If I knew how to conjure up a lovely image with AI I'd do so, but failing that here he is awake on said bed.

If you’ve got photogenic or amusing pets, AI seems superfluous.

Is it too early for a hot chocolate?

Never too early for hot chocolate. Don't the French have it at breakfast?

Never. Are you in dire need?

It's currently locked in the cupboard, except the bit that Gubbins snook? Sneaked? Shoved in her pocket.

That bit is currently doing Gubbins homework but I think we should leave the rest to devour the pub once we've locked up.

1 sock found 5 more to go.

I have a whole bundle of quokkas here. The bus is late and it's raining.

I’d offer to fly them over but I’m not convinced how good they’d be at hanging on. Any creatures with a good grip (Rosie, sloths - any more?) are welcome.

And Colin - he’s got the knack of it, perhaps surprisingly.

Definitely, and it can sop up any remaining sparp.

As long as we keep it out of Android's lab!

Hot chocolate has been administered.

I’m sure android completely shut down and shut up the lab. Although she did decamp to the new pub with great alacrity … hopefully she wasn’t beating a hasty retreat from Something.

I do not want to meet a sparpdough hybrid! Although I'm sure Balrog could make short work of it.

baked sparp and sourdough (if it wasn’t for the goat wee, wtf?) sounds more appetising than some of my 1960s primary school lunches tbh.

I suppose it's a variation on a sausage roll! Minus goat wee, as you say.

That’s a subject I’d like to leave here and not raise again in the new place.

How's the sock count, @Boiledbeetlejuice? I hope the sourdough hasn't eaten the remainder!

They do. Ideal for croissant-dunking.

I’d rather have a cafe au lait and a pain au chocolat

I've put the quokkas ( and Spartipuss) in a basket and can now fly them over. Bit like a puffin- shaped hot air balloon.
