[Biddlybee]

I'm twiddling my thumbs at home so will be there around 7

[Pieface]

How long will it take you to get there? I'm 5mins from the pub and just pottering about at work... I'll probably leave soon(ish).

I can be there around 6:15 I think...

That was very convivial. I hope hollis didn't entirely break that mirror after I left

I also hope the 'sofa three' were moderately comfy

I'm going to bed with my new book

 

[Crispy]

Lovely food, but no soup
I got a good secret santa book though

Sparrow is feeling incredibly smug about proposing and winning the next book, seeing as she's a newbie and everything. It's

Woman on the Edge of Time, by Marge Piercy (Women's Press Classic)

Hollis. One day we'll read a WW1 fighter ace epic.

 

[han]

The new book sounds ace, nice to have a feminist-anarcho-70s bit of literature

 

[Dubversion]

Oh fuck! So sorry, I was just trying to be considerate. That'll learn me.

[Orang Utan]

[citydreams]

And she's still out.

I found her chatting some sense into Onemonkey this morning

 

[Dubversion]

Oh fuck! So sorry, I was just trying to be considerate. That'll learn me.

[zora]
