Thursday fingers through detergent

MORNING

Still on a high from last night's Moopy excitement. Can't wait to do it again! Just one day of work to get through...

 

[ButterTart]

See you all for karaoke Thursdays down Joanna Dee's!

Cherry B and cider three for £5!

 

[ButterTart]

Incidentally, is Joanna Dee any relation to the Pippa Dee?

THREAD CLASH!

MORNING

Still on a high from last night's Moopy excitement. Can't wait to do it again! Just one day of work to get through...

You've got semi 2 tonight, and then the dance anthems gala tomorrow. Moopy's going wild in the aisles this week.

Annoyingly I have a drinky zoom on Friday AGAIN so I'll have to my own moopy dance party AGAIN. I was looking forward to getting off my tits on strongmints and having Kate berate all my more poppy choix.

@Soldi any TEASERS for semi 2?

 

[Sheena]

I am DONE with drinks Zoom. It feels horribly outside where I want to be right now!

 

[Sheena]

Oh and MORNING

 

[Tisch]

I am DONE with drinks Zoom. It feels horribly outside where I want to be right now!

Oh SAME. I've never been one for Skypeing or Facetiming anyway. I find it awkward how you have to keep the conversation going and when there's several of you, you're more likely to talk over each other so you sit back and end up not saying much at all!

In these pandemic times literally NO ONE has any updates either and all the "I've got no plans lol" jokes are wearing thin.

 

[lolly]

Also over Zoom. It's become a WORK thing now, so if ever it's suggested by friends now I just have a kneejerk reaction against it.

 

[Star]

I'm the same! We started lockdown having zoom chats every day with Kylie's friends but I just found them so difficult. I much rather just ring on someone's bell and talk to them for 5 mins from a distance.

I still think we should have done at least one Eurovision rewatch via zoom.

 

[Star]

I really want to do a Moopy zoom games night though

 

[Tisch]

I'd be up for this actually! I know Eurovision and zoom are a bit passé now but could still work. And #eurovisionagain are still running for the next few weeks.

I need a Floppet. What's the best thing for clearing a gunky plug hole? I feel like it's baking powder or bicarbonate of soda or vinegar or lemon juice and/or some combination of the above?

 

[Tisch]

I'd be up for this too!

 

[Sheena]

Oh I'd love a Moopy Zoom night having said all of this! It's new! It has great potential!

LET'S ORGANISE IT NOW! We could have a MOOPY QUIZ (but not a SHIT quiz, a quiz based on MOOPY THINGS. Like we did at STAR’S HINDU HEN DO)

 

[Star]

Let's do it! I'll have a bit of time when the kids start nursery from next week and you've nothing to do either

 

[lolly]

Totally up for some kind of moopy event, as long as it isn’t on the back of a fuckawful work day.

Let's (i.e. Star and Sheena) organise it now

 

[Soldi]

I’m up for both of these!

 

[wendy the Go_At]

Count me in huns! The only Zoom chats I'm doing recently is online Cubs and fucking Slimming World.

 

[Soldi]

I still think we should have done at least one Eurovision rewatch via zoom.

Come to think of it, there’s always this Saturday to do this in order to capitalise on the BUZZ of this weeks Moopy contests.

Your best bet for clearing a blocked plughole is caustic soda, available from DIY shops. If it's just a bit gunky there are plenty of recipes using boiling water and the ingredients above on Google if you can't get to B&Q.

 

[octophone]

I'm very much on Moopy Furlough at the moment but I thought you would appreciate this:

On Sunday, I ordered "When They Call You A Terrorist: A Black Lives Matter Memoir" through the Amazon Marketplace.

Today, Amazon's "recommended, based on your recent activity" e-mail began with...Morrissey's new album.

There are no words.

Thanks! It's not blocked, just gunky and I can't get in the plughole properly myself because it's one of those revolving ones. I've been plunging it but the gunk is just flying everywhere and not really clearing.

Just try sticking a generous squirt of thick bleach down, leave it for half an hour then follow with a few kettles of boiling water. It's worth a try.

 

[Diddy]

Just got the train back from work. People generally spreading themselves out a lot, but one guy sat RIGHT next to me. It’s comparatively safe here so I wasn’t bothered by it, but he didn’t move even when most of the people got off the train.

and I sort of liked it, I wasn’t attracted to him but it was just nice to have someone next to me, and now I think that’s totally bonkers

I’ll do 20 Hail Marys when I get home

 

[Diddy]

@Tisch has a revolving plug hole?

(well I’d heard talk)

but what does that even mean?

I'm sure there's a proper name for it. I mean it's not one you plug in and pull put but a metal disc you swivel to either open or close the hole.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I've just started applying for jobs. Unsurprisingly there's very little out there. I have had a response so that's something.

I bought caustic soda on your advice, but am still too scared to use it.

Oh it's great fun.

 

[lolly]

I'm convinced it will dissolve all my pipes.

I knew what you meant, we have one in the wash basin in the work toilets. I hate it.

 

[floppet]

It won't! Our pipes are all plastic and they've had caustic down them hundreds of times without problems.

 

[AlgoAlex]

God some people DO NOT want to give up this clapping

 

[Kate]

Yeah happened here too!

 

[AlgoAlex]

Yeah happened here too!

These are the same people who have had two street parties in the last few months with zero social distancing later on in the evening

 

[Sheena]

ANOTHER POST ABOUT MY JOB ALERT:

I shouldn't have bragged about the furlough situation. Now my successor is wobbling about whether she wants to take over and whether she can handle it all so quickly and so it could be off.

I HAVE FELT SICK ALL EVENING.

 

[Star]

I'm guessing you know the successor fairly well? Big her up and tell her she's made for the job!

 

[Star]

And that you'll be on hand to help if needed
