New thread. You know the deal - women's pub, men to the Staunch Ally next door.

Some of us are currently on the trail of an international seed smuggling ring, just for background information.

First at the bar! For the first time ever!

ChristmasStars · 29/05/2026 11:18

Second! Long cold something for me please bargerbils.

PastaAllaNorma · 29/05/2026 11:21

Can I place my lunch order now while I bob back to get the rest of my yarn, please, barkeep?

Smoked mackerel salad and a pint of best bitter - moving is knackering.

Thehorticulturalhussie · 29/05/2026 11:23

Thank you Magpie.
After thoroughly enjoying last episode I have decided that when it's my time to shuffle off I'd like to be asphyxiated by the weight of a few thousand gerbils. Bliss.

EmpressaurusKitty · 29/05/2026 11:58

Thanks for the new thread!

Thehorticulturalhussie · 29/05/2026 12:21

I'm very worried that the smugglers are in the pay of OSGs (Organised Crime Gerbils) but is that even a thing? If it is, then what could have caused them to turn to the dark side? Seems unlikely but, well .............
Absolutely no offence intended to our splendid gerbils without whom the BS would implode.

Thehorticulturalhussie · 29/05/2026 12:22

OCGs.
Sigh

Igmum · 29/05/2026 12:27

So do we need AC-12 gerbils led by Adriana DunGerbil? Also Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the wee donkey?

(With apologies if all made their debut on the last thread, I’m a bit behind)

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 29/05/2026 12:30

Thank you @Magpiecomplex - I’m glad I managed not to get left behind this time!

PastaAllaNorma · 29/05/2026 12:39

My son just brought me a pistachio magnum. What a marvellous modern world we live in.

DauntlessDamson · 29/05/2026 12:40

Afternoon all. I made it!

Busy morning restoring the sails after all the repairs from the storm. Batshit was 'helping' by sitting in the crow's nest trying to launch herself at passing seagulls.

Just had waffles and hot chocolate in Becky's Diner and I'm tempted to try one of the hammocks for a snooze this afternoon.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 29/05/2026 12:41

Ooooh - pistachio Magnum - I like the sound of that, @PastaAllaNorma. What a good son you have!

Well, having seen the effect all that top grade seed had on our gerbils did make me wonder….

Definitely frenzied. Makes you think doesn’t it?

It does. More frenzied than Kitty on cat crack.

I just bought a box of Lidl pistachio Magnum-alikes. They are in the freezer, awaiting deployment.

Chickadeeinme · 29/05/2026 13:40

Fluttering in, five hours late as per usual.

Chersfrozenface · 29/05/2026 13:44

Something with ice, please, gerbils.

Hello, all. I think I missed the last thread. I'm having trouble keeping up with... Well, just keeping up in general, really.

AngleofRepose · 29/05/2026 14:06

Well, that was a trek! I followed one of the secret tunnels from the Old Place, and came up through the cellar. (bear it in mind in case we all need to escape in a hurry. The tunnels also lead out to a secret table in the beer garden, only for Special Clientele)

Carmela says she'll make her way over here with the other camels In Her Own Good Time. She grumpily admits that the photographic evidence of Better Hay is somewhat convincing (I'd like to say she said thank you, Magpie, but that would be fibbing)

I am all grubby from the tunnels, so I'd like a nice, clean glass of real lemonade (flat), please Gerbils, lots of ice. Can you stow Gubbins' triangle behind the bar?

Thanks for the new thread, Magpie!

Hedgehogforshort · 29/05/2026 14:09

Hello all just got back from my canal boat.

had to leave it up north as some locks are shut for repair.

pint of gin please gerbils

AngleofRepose · 29/05/2026 15:47

Hedgey, I've heard that it happens. How will you be able to get it back?

ErrolTheDragon · 29/05/2026 16:16

I’m not sure that ‘organised’ and ‘gerbils’ can belong in the same description. Well, not unless someone else is doing the organising of course.
