Great and Gorgeous

Fabulous Face and Fingers

And so f*ckable.

Sleep? Who needs it!

Today I had to take Amber to the vet's for her six-weekly kidney injection. Because I have to get up early for the chickens, I decided to book an 8.30 appointment, and instead of going back to bed, I'd see what the day might hold.

As I left with Amber, I saw a neighbour on her way, as I supposed to work. Little did I know...

Awake (!) and alert (!!!) I decided to hop on a train and take myself off to London Zoo.

...Where I bumped into the neighbour with two young charges (who were bored).

A sign on the African Hunting Dogs enclosure said that there were two new females inside, and this may affect behaviour. What it did not say was that lunch had been served.

Vegetarians (ew, that means me!) and those with weak stomachs (that's me too!) beware.

Further Shenanigans

Ann has provided another tantalising episode of At Home With The Gorens AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!

Epiglottis?

Eggstremely painful

On Sunday, little Poppy was a bit lethargic. She spent a lot of time lying around rather than digging and feeding. I was concerned - she hadn't laid an egg, and I was afraid she was egg-bound.

I read up on what to do, and discovered I should smear KY jelly or liquid paraffin round her vent, then gently squeeze her stomach till the egg started to appear. (No KY in the house, who needs it with Vincent to dream about, but luckily I use liquid paraffin regularly for my old boy Shelley to, well, lubricate his bowels. Sorry.)

I was ready to perform surgery on Monday morning, or else whisk her off to the vet's. Instead, I was greeted with the reason why she'd had such problems laying the day before:

Poor little love, she isn't a big hen. No wonder chickens cluck a lot when they are laying! I bet this one is another double yolk.

Cute? Coy? Cuddly?

All those and more.

Contemptuous too!

New episode from Lynn

Bobby at his Beautiful Best

I know, I know, you could say that about every episode, but I'm just making an attempt at the alphabetical theme.

My system breaks down

OK, it isn't much of a system. Basically I bought a new bookcase and put my V-dvds on it. Films are in alphabetical order, LOCI is a bit more problematical. Bought ones go first, then a mixture of home-produced and "first sight" which were sent to me by Eliza when episodes first aired in the US. As I recorded most episodes 3 or 4 times (just to be safe) that's where the system has flaws. These dvds take up a lot of shelf space. Apparently so much that there was no room for all (two) of Season 9.

So where did I put them? My friend was finally here to see Part 1 yesterday, and I could not find it.

I appear to have a download on my computer, but it has the end missing.

How in earth could I have arrived at this disgraceful set of circumstances? I am ashamed! I wish I were as organised as Diane.

If anyone has a complete download still on Megaupload that I can snaffle, I would be forever grateful.
