RUMPLATIONS: Awesome Honky Tonk and Cyber Bar

Quote by LinaDS2025

It's 40 degrees in Manila! 😭🤐😝

Yes, but I'll bet it's humid, too!

However you measure it, that's TOO HOT for a cool Polar Bear!

And let's get some caffeine going.

Lights are on, Lady Dryad has cleaned up and we’re ready to rumble.

Must be last night's burritos…

Tea Kettle is refilled and steamy. There are pots of Yorkshire and Darjeeling teas available on the sideboard, plus all the other fine teas in the box. Sachets of Swiss Miss are available, along with the usual mound of mini marshmallows.

Big Bertha has been cleaned, and is ready to go.

Today we're using 454 Horse Power coffee blend from Kicking Horse Coffee Roasters, to power us into the weekend

I've put out donuts.

Take care out there, 'K?

It’s that time again…

Hiya, Rumpies

Know what makes for a crazy time? When the fire alarm goes off in an assisted living facility. All residents have a walker or wheelchair. Some like Dad can’t hear and do nothing. I can compare it to something, but won’t.

Stiff drink or five, please. 😳

TGIF 👅

TGIF indeed, Kimmi!

Sorry folks – got tied up in stuff.

But I'll be back tomorrow.

Meanwhile, I've got a lovely pair of knockers for y'all to feast your eyes on!

And it's Saturn's-Day, so ring-a-ding-ding!

Who was it who said that?

Welcome to the Caffeine-Nation!

It's TEA time…and coffee.

Lights on, Lady Dryad has cleaned up and we’re ready to go.

Tea Kettle is refilled and ready. There are pots of Yorkshire and Assam teas available on the sideboard, plus all the other fine teas in the box. Sachets of Swiss Miss are available, along with the usual mound of mini marshmallows.

Big Bertha has been cleaned, rinsed, and refilled, and is now perkin' away.

Today we're using A Dork Affair – excuse, me A DARK Affair coffee blend from Balzac's Coffee Roasters.

I've put out donuts.

Plus I've got some of Kimmi's second favourite buns.

Her FAVOURITE buns can be found in Store Room #4, as I understand it.

David, I understand it's cooled off somewhat in England, but I've got a storeroom full of Diet Coke – plus Coke Zero for Kat – so I expect you two to keep up the pace, here!

Take care out there, 'K?

Morning, Rumpies

Twins fun day! Woohoo! Taking a day trip.

Here’s some sticky buns to munch on.

I wrote an entry in Kimmi's contest thinking it needed to be 375 words and then wondering why everyone else's was only 75 words and then reading the rules more carefully! 🤣

Oh no! Thats kinda funny though. 😊 Sounds like something I would do. Can you somehow cut 300 words out?

It might not make much sense if i did! lol

OK, so I slept in and then got busy in the backroom.

So shoot me.

No, let me rephrase that…

Good morning!

Anyone care for a libation or six?

I'm waiting to hear from a publisher about a proposal for a non-fiction book.

I'll let y'all know if anything happens, but keep your paws crossed, 'K?

I ended up writing a mermaid story!

I read it! It was great! 😊

Good evening, Bear

Hoping you get good news on your book! 😀

Me too. So far … crickets!

I take that as a good sign. It means they're trying to figure out how much to offer me!

…I think…

And it's the start of a new week, and a new month!

Happy June, everybody!

And Happy Pride month!

We're using PEACE coffee from Awareness Coffee roasters, and we've got some proud lookin' donuts.

Yorkshire and English Breakfast teas, with Swiss Miss hot chocolate mix with prideful mini-marshmallows

I've polished up the sign that Kisten made for us so it's all bright and sparkly behind the bar, and am putting out both the Canadian and Pride flags out front!

Tell us what's going on in your communities! Parades, water pistol fights, … anything?

Thank you for opening up, Bear. 😊 A Yorkshire Tea for me, please.

Is it Pride month already? Wow, that came around quickly. It's time to change my avatar! 😎

Another Yorkshire Tea over here, please.

Good morning. Having a run of lovely weather here. Sunny, low twenties (Celsius). Cloud and chance of showers forecast for the coming weekend but we will need them by then. Lovely as this weather is, it is also a dry spell.

Writing is happening but, as usual, I am flailing. Starting things and then not sure where they go and that sort of thing.

And wishing a great Pride Month to all my LGBTQ and allied Lush friends. Pride is more than a month, though, and with Ghana and some other countries passing new anti-LGBTQ legislation that targets allies, too, in some cases (as I heard it reported), that attitude matters even more.

Morning, Rumpies

I have my Pride avatar.

But here’s my Monday back-to-work face:

Back to work is okay today. My grumpy face is because a company that I have been doing business with for 15 or something like that years got breached because some dipshit got taken in by a phish. Not a small company either, one of this planet's biggest cruise lines. Surely they can afford good mail filters and employee security training.

Ooo ouch! Yup that sucks! We are repeatedly trained and tested regularly on cyber security.
