The Bluestocking Pub: Infinite Cocktails, Questionable Logistics

[MyrtleLion]

Welcome to the nth iteration of the Bluestocking women’s pub, where gerbils are staff, the drinks are free, and alcohol has no effect except to get you to the sweet spot just before the drink you really shouldn’t have had.

Men can go to the Staunch Ally next door.

It’s OK if you don’t understand. Just assume everything is normal.

Previous thread is here:

I wondered if longboar was the word used for cannibalism of solely the male of the species (cf. long pig) off the back of the "too hot to eat people" thread a few days ago.

I love this!

❤️❤️❤️ and also 😂😂😂

We’re going to need a bigger thread…

I have a two hour meeting at 1130, so I will probably see you on the next one.

I'll bring Gosie and the crew.

I'll do a new thread. Probably my turn!

Here we go. Everyone start collecting your belongings for an orderly departure please.

@AuntieMsDamsonCrumble don't forget to namechange before posting on the new thread!

Oh bugger, I think I dropped my crochet hook down the cushions. I'd best find it before we move.

Thanks for the new thread, Magpie! I just have to gather all my research documents, check the cellar for secret tunnels, go back through the library to make sure nothing mysterious was left after the "disappearance" of the loft hatch, get my quilting things from the Nook, then go remind Carmela to tell the rest of the camels that we're moving to the new place.

Can I borrow some capybaras to help move the quilting frame, please?

(nevermind, they say they can just build a new one)

...Someone's left their knitting in the Nook!

Carmela has asked me to ask Magpie specifically "is there going to be better hay at the new place?"

(🙄Don't shoot the messenger.)

I've told her we're leaving with or without her attitude.

Camels. Uppity buggers, the lot of them.

Found the crochet hook but put down my books somewhere. Anyone seen Sailing for Beginners or A Woman's Guide to Nautical Knots kicking about?

The capybaras have cleared out all the books in anticipation of the move. "Fire hazard" or some such...

Well, that depends on what the better hay is being measured against.
It's better than the hay at the Staunch Ally, I can guarantee that.

@AngleofRepose for Carmela. Better hay, as requested.

Well, I say! I don't think even Carmela can complain about that! (she says, hopefully)

I bet she can 😀

How are we doing with clearing out the Nook, nearly done yet?

I shall be coming in disguise on the next thread. I wonder if you will all recognise me 😎😁

Yes, all cleared!

Kind of sad to leave. This one has been really fun with our new adventures. Thanks @MyrtleLion and here's to many more! 🥂

Does anyone know where Gubbins is?? I found her triangle in the attic! Or does she have more than one?

I'm sure Gubbins has a whole collection of triangles!

Last call, everyone. Nearly time to lock up.

Just reposting the link.

All done!
