What with all the drama of being ruthlessly plaigiarised and then getting in trouble with the law, I totally forgot to tell you about the latest additions to the McNaught-Miaoulis Menagerie. It is like a ZOO in here, people. Like a zoo, I tells ya. See, the in-laws have gone off to Greece for five weeks (no, not jealous at all…), giving Terry and I temporary custody of their pets, almost as if we were responsible adults. Without further ado then, people, please welcome…
George the Tortoise!
Special talent: pretending to be dead
Likes: eating his greens
Hates: it’s hard to tell what George hates, really. He doesn’t say much.
Pepe the Parrot!
Special talent: Screaming like the end of the world is nigh
Likes: Terry
Hates: Everyone else
Not forgetting, of course…
Rubin the Wolf!
Special talent: peeing on the washing machine
Likes: being the centre of attention at all times
Hates: Pepe and George. As soon as he saw them he was all, "I’m blogging this". So he did.
What happened to Woody The Stick Insect?
Ah, worry not, Toni, little Woody is alive and well – he’s currently being looked after by our nephew, George who has a whole stick insect community
We have been reliably informed that George Jnr has 150+ stick insects now (Lila can you confirm?).
Thank Christ we didn’t get the stick insects anyway, I can hardly twitch without every animal in the room looking around to see if I am getting up to give them some food – and that includes Amber too!
Pepe is a cutie! And Rubin’s adorable as ever…
And as for little George
I am greatly comforted to know Woody is alive and well and stick-y.
Not only are they alive toni but they now have 150 friends to chill out with.
