I will have to add a call to Wol on my to do list.

I have managed to find a reputable washing machine repairman too - seeing as my washing machine became possessed by a demon on Saturday night (I don't want to have to go back to washing sheets in the bath:rolleyes:), a friend has recommended him and he only charges £19 plus VAT to come and have a look see and then £39.50 plus VAT for any parts and labour:cool:

I have meetings, meetings and yet more meetings - one meeting in particular could be fruitful as it may mean working with a firm of sound engineers who also run an entertainments business and they often get asked to organise events too but they say they can't do that bit of it (keep your fingers crossed for a week on Thursday).

I even emailed a self made millionaire over the weekend - just to say thanks for writing a book called The Business Coach because I am finding it useful, he replied and wished me well and said that if I carry on the way that I am doing then I will be successful:cool: (he was financially able to retire at 26, he is now 38 and runs his own business coaching business). I must be doing something right - to think that my entrepreneurial spirit started in primary school where I was selling champion conkers (I had kept them in a warm dark place for 12 months before I sold them).:rotfl:

I dont mind being an auntie to a guinea pig as I cannot have any pets - so a long distance auntie is just fab.

OK OK.....It's a day late I know...naughty Wol ...

Here are Beechie/Maple/Willow's sisters Pierrot and Whisp.when they were babbies in Mar 07


Pierrot



...Whisp

and with their daughters in Mar 08





Peirrot looks so chuffed....


Both gals from Grommie and Crumpet (Muffin's sister)

Whisp was the runt of the litter ...absolutely tiny compared to the others..(as in Will o' the Whisp because she was so like her brother Willow.:rotfl:..)... and she is a lovely guinea who is finally becoming very interactive and friendly. She was put back in with Muffin and Pebble after her litter last year and unfortunately they bullied her and she spent the whole time hunkering in a corner with her face to the cage wall .

The good news is that Whisp is now bonded very happily with Pebble's son from her first litter Ginger (who is Charlie's borther and now nadgered ).



As for Pierrrot, well she is now happily residing with Auntie Smashed (along with Pebble's son Garibaldi..and a lovely bonded pair they make ) Unfortunately once Pierrot had her babies last year and was returned to the female cage, naughty Muffin and Pebble attacked her also, and damaged her eye so badly she had to have it removed (and was spayed at the same time )...cost me a flippin fortune as it was out of hours . Hence why she is now bonded with Garibaldi......He is in the top RH corner in the following pic ..well of course..the colours match perfectly

.

So Pierrot and Whisp are our guineas of the wheek..although lots of others are also in the piccies...more on them later

Once we've got to the end of the guinea road show....you can name your guinea Auntie Horace ......:D:D

OOh..but I have to warn you that "greedy Uncle Numpty" is already laying claim to Beechie ("himwotdunnit"), Muffin, Pebble and Bandit :D:mad::cool:....and would appear to be planning a pignapping :eek::eek:...(well maybe it was just the lager speaking )

Personally I think Charlie and Bailey would float your boat.....they're up next..so let's wait and see :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Dunno Z.............and there's 4 of them which means Beechie will have his (Numpty's) nadgers if he tries to put them down his trousers :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:....................unless of course Beechie is too busy trying to roger Muffin and Pebble ...but even so, could still be quite painful for Numpty ;):D
