cup cake dreams

somewhere, over the road, way up high (on the shelf), there's a cake that i heard of, once in my fluffy dreams...

I saw Nora kissing Santa Claus!

AND eating too much cake!

Happy Christmas fluffy ones.

Lots of love Lewis the Gorilla MAD xxx

donkey mates

i wasn't happy that lewis ate all the cakes.  but i am happy that pickwick the donkey has come to stay in the fluffy-hair house.  i met some of his donkey mates earlier today, as you can see.

they live down the road in a barn. they have invited me around for tea and straw cakes next week. i can't wait!

apparently it will be a birthday party (although i don't think we'll be playing 'pin the tail on the donkey').

happy week, love from nora the panda xxx

Superhero goes Bananas!

So, while I have been off investigating yet another case (of missing bananas this time - thankfully found in the 'lost luggage' area of a cake shop) a crisis occurred in the Fluffy-Hair house...

Alan (master cake maker) got stuck when sneaking out of the cake shop! (I actually suspect he had something to do with the case of missing bananas, but I have no evidence to support this as he has no fingerprints, nor indeed does he have fingers!).

Anyway...  He telephoned Lime, as you can see.  To everyone's great surprise, Lime hopped up to the mark (bars) and saved the day!

It turns out that we are living with a superhero!  Wow!  Who would have thought it?  He may have some speech and language needs, but goodness, can he hop!

So Lime saved the day!  To celebrate, we all had banana cake (as I now have a case full of bananas that I need to use up before they go off).

What a talented household we are!

Bananas to us all, love Lewis MAD xxx

Christmas Crackers

Hello all everywhere.  Yippee!  We have had fun this Christmas.

I got a gorilla mug.

And Nora got a panda mug!

Hurrah!  We will no longer argue about tea ownership.  This bodes very well for a peaceful 2014.

Lots of love and chocolate (and tea!)

DAFT instead of MAD

Well, I have come to a big decision.  What? I hear you ask (well, I hope I do).  Well...  I have finally decided that being MAD (Master of Animal Detective) is not enough.  I would like to be DAFT (Doctor of Animal and Fluffy Theories) too.

I came to my decision after two important events.  Firstly, I found out what had been making the neighbours ill.  They were all a little hoarse and were suffering from hay fever, brought on by nightmares and feelings of being unstable.  It turns out that Mr Mustard the horse started it all off with his sneezing.  Apparently, he had been visiting the local fish school and had stuck his head in peppery water.  I used my MAD detective skills to solve that one.  All the animals in the Fluffy-Hair house were impressed.

The second important event was finding Peggy Browne the Pufferfish in the school down the road (the same place where Mr Mustard the horse became ill).  After talking to the Head of the school (who also had a body and fins), we are letting her stay with us for a while on work experience.

Nora and I have been helping her with her writing skills, as you can see.  I know that if I was DAFT I would be able to help her more.

So there you have it.  I am obviously a very talented, if not modest, Gorilla.  So I think it is about time I tried to be DAFT.  I'll have to apply to a university.  I'm hoping I'll be successful.  Go Gorilla!!

Lots of love from Lewis xxx (MAD for not too much longer!)

hoof and mouth?

oh dear!  (really i should be saying oh bear! oh horse! oh dog!).  i cannot write for long because my nursing skills are in demand...

just look at jacob.  he is usually so talkative.

some kind of illness has affected our fluffy-hair community.  there are rumours of bird flu or swine flu.  or even mad cow disease (codswallop i say).

could it be cow pox or chicken pox?  lewis thinks that mr mustard the horse has hoof and mouth disease!  neigh, i say.

it may even be saturday night fever.

i am baffled.  i am having to deal with all this, and i haven't even finished my nursing exams yet.  lewis is off doing his detective work to find out what is going on.

lets hope the animals get better soon!

Bear's Got Talent!

Such excitement in the Fluffy-Hair house!  You may remember George?  Well, he has just come runner up in the "Bear's got Talent" TV show!!  What for, you may ask?

Playing the piano, of course!  He's been practicing for months.  He won with an amazing rendition of many of Saint-Saens "Carnival of the Animals".  He also did an amazing bit of Chopin.  As you can see, he has being trying to teach us how to play too.

Nora was a bit confused by the whole thing (bless her).  I think she was just mesmerised by the keys being the same colour as her.  That seemed to distract her from actually playing.  Later she told me that she was also concerned about playing Chopin as she did not want her paws to be chopped off!  Me, on the other hand, did quite well (just look at me go!).

Thank you George, and congratulations!

Love from Lewis the Gorilla MAD xx

Jog your Memory

So, things have been a bit stressful here in the Fluffy-Hair house lately. Alan's amnesia has caused mayhem in the kitchen.  We have had a lot of food disasters.  As you can see, Nora wasn't too happy about eating jam on cucumber.

... nor broccoli with strawberry and cherry (although she did like the strawberry and cherry parts!).

So, being MAD (Master of Animal Detective), I decided that we needed to go out and find Alan's memory (there are only so may peas on toast with rolled oats that one can eat).  We looked everywhere...

... Behind the rocks...

Over the ocean.  It took hours!  Finally, I got Alan to go for a run to try and jog his memory.

And guess what?  It worked!

 

He is now back to his normal chef/chocolatier self.  And, of course, Nora is happy too.

 

Well done to me! (Lewis, MAD) xxx

 



alan's amnesia

hello cake loving folks!  i was soooo looking forward to this evening as alan went shopping to buy some chocolate cake ingredients!  yippee!

unfortunatley, he only came back to the fluffy-hair house with sand (which is not good for making cakes).  being a nurse, i have diagnosed him with amnesia.  it appears that he completely forgot what he was doing, so went to the beach!  oh dear :-(

so i think tomorrow, i need to go shopping to help him out.  or maybe i could ask lewis to go so that i can have a lie in (panda sleep needed due to the stress of disappointment).  we'll see.  maybe i should go shopping anyway.  who knows what i might bring back to the fluffy-hair house...

lots of love (but slight disappointment) nora the panda-nurse xxx

Neighbour Jumpers

Our other new neighbours invited us around for some sandwiches yesterday.  It was the evening, so I guess it is OK for someone to wear pyjamas when they have visitors (as long as they don't start going shopping or on the bus wearing them or anything crazy like that.. The beginning of the end...).

They are very nice bears.  As you can see, they were very festive.

I wonder if a reindeer is wearing a bear jumper?

Nora said that she would like to take up knitting again.  She really liked this cardigan.

And a lovely surprise was seeing Santa!  He gave us some gifts.  I got a book on animal paw prints, which will be very useful for my detective work.  Nora got some chocolates, which I think she is making her way through as I write.

Anyway.  We have had a lovely Christmas.  Happy New Year!!

dreams can come true!

i am not sure whether or not i dreamt what just happened...

our neighbour (richard the bear) came around to the fluffy-hair house with his friend alan.  apparently alan is a master chocolatier and cake maker!  yippee!

look at these fantastic cakes alan has made!  and they're all for me!  (well, i might be forced to share them).  alan is very talented and a very nice animal.  i'm going to ask lewis if it's alright if he stays with us for a while.  paws crossed!

lots of love and crossed sticky paws, nora the panda xxx (and new bff, alan)

happy sunshine seaside

i felt a bit bad that we all had that nice meal without lewis.  we weren’t being racist.  we just thought he was away for a few days on another top secret mission with bond. badger bond.  so to cheer him up i decided to treat him for the day.

unfortunately, i got the address wrong.  we went to a place that derek licked, or something something.

luckily, lewis was able to use his mad (master of animal detective) skills to find a better place. 

so i treated him to a monkey la la cocktail.

we even dipped our toes into a bubbly lake (apparently called a jacuzzi.  what a silly name).

 

  then ended off the day talking to the fish in the sea (no codswallop).

 

i am glad lewis is my best friend!

happy sunshine sea side

lots of love, nora :-) xxx

Racism?

I was not too happy about this.

Hopefully next time when I come back from work, the animals in the Fluffy-Hair house might actually make me some food.  Just because I am on a diet.  I still need to eat!  Or is it because I am black?

Lewis :-(

counting sheep...

lewis is feeling a lot better, you'll be pleased to hear.  but as for me, well, i've had some difficulties sleeping lately.

even counting sheep has not helped, as you can see.

so i took lewis's advice (for a change.  i usually don't listen to him when he says that i eat too many cakes and things)...  i went to see his therapist!

here we all are after the therapy.  lewis said he was drinking wine to celebrate feeling much better.  although he didn't feel better the next day.  sometimes gorilla's are silly.

you'll be pleased to hear that i am now dreaming of fields of sheep.  there are always lots of them.  i'm so pleased i don't have to try counting them anymore!

lots of love and sweet dreams (or dreams of sweets) nora xxx
