Hungry

I am celebrating this evening! For I have won the Fluffy One! (Yes, one of my many talents is racing cars). I'm now feeling hungry after being in Hungary (ha ha) so off to eat another banana.



I expect my rival is not too chuffed!

weekend away

simon and the monkey keep hassling me about 'posting' some photos of their weekend away (this has nothing to do with the postman who comes along to the fluffy-hair house). anyway. i said i would help after watching holby city (which is good for my nursing skills). so here it is. they went to the city (not holby) to meet up with senorita - a sloth friend who simon used to live with in costa rica.


don't they look like twins!

they went to the grey-hair house to speak to golden brown or something something (to talk about CALF) but he wasn't there. so they went to speak with the queen instead. and it appears they even had tea with the queen (although they said she didn't say much)!

apparently she gave the monkey some carrot cake. i was not happy that he did not bring any back for me.

they also met a dog in a coventry garden or something something.

i think i should go with them next time because that carrot cake looked great! simon has been a bit sad since he came back because senorita is moving to canada which is a very long way from here.
so simon and monkey, i hope you are happy about these photos. you owe me one (carrot cake)

Snorkelling, Reading and Knitting!

We were awoken by the sheep baaaing loudly this morning, so decided to take advantage of the whole day - even Nora managed to get up early. As you can see, I put on my snorkelling gear, ready for a trip to the sea. I know it looks a bit odd as I am sitting on top of a toilet seat, but we keep our snorkelling gear in the bathroom as we sometimes practice our snorkelling skills in the bath.

Unfortunately, by the time we got to leave, it was raining really hard. Some call that raining "cats and dogs" but this is obviously a ludicrous falsehood (keep up the CALF!). So we had to stay inside instead.

I thought it was about time I caught up with the current research in detective work, and Nora wanted to have a go a knitting a jumper. Unfortunately she got in a bit of a muddle. Even Simon was unable to help, and he has handy toes (or toey hands) that could be good for fiddly things like knitting.

So that was our day really. Hope you all had a good one. We'll try snorkelling again tomorrow. I need to thank the turtles for the jumper they gave us.

Bye for now! Love from Lewis x

On Official Business (sounds like "A Fishing Business")

We heard on the news yesterday that there had been a fight at the chip shop - apparently, some fish got battered. Being a detective, I wanted to investigate this incident further. I found it to be codswallop. But then, as Chubby pointed out to me, saying "codswallop" was not nice and may lead to more cod being battered. This led me to thinking about our CALF campaign. It's not just the fluffy-hair brigade that ludicrous falsehoods affect. Oh no! Indeed our scaled friends and others that live in the water get a raw deal (especially sushi). Some humans say "you old trout" - this is silly as trout never really get much older than 4 or so years. We've also heard humans say "fish wife," which is not a nice thing to say to anybody and I'm sure that happily married fish are not pleased when they hear it! So I sent Simon and the Monkey off to spread the CALF message to our friends in the sea. Simon came back with some photos:


On the way they met some cows (and calves!) and told them about our campaign. When they got to the sea they spoke to the fish.



They were really happy when they came back - seems like they had a whale of a time! They even got some milk from the cows and a turtle-neck jumper from the turtles!

You may be wondering why I didn't go with them. Well, Sniff of the Yard (the dog next door) hired me (again) to sort out his sausage tree. Its all sorted now. We even had time to jam together afterwards (Nora, before you get excited, this does not mean strawberry jam, raspberry jam or even blackcurrant jam. No. I was drumming and Sniff of the Yard was playing keyboards).

Anyway. We all got back after a day of hard work, only to find that Nora had eaten all the cakes! She really takes the biscuit sometimes.

Long live CALF!

let them (me) eat cake!


when i woke up today, none of the animals in the fluffy-hair house were in! i was a bit worried (not for too long) so i went to try and find them. of course, the first place i looked was the fridge. and guess what i found? yippee! cakes! then they came back and simon was not happy because i had eaten all the jenny eclairs. lewis said he would write and tell you later about what they did. he was a bit annoyed that i didn't help them and said i really "take the biscuit". but no-one woke me up, and i only took cakes and not biscuits, so what was i supposed to do?

nora - the icing on the cake - xx
