    (I promised I'd post it Hun :D - you can tell Ginger was fussed over by the vet nurses can;t you - he now gets an idiotic grin on his face the moment you start paying him any attention :rotfl:)

    That has to be the most handsome pigglie I have ever seen. I am also totally convinced that Ginger must be able to speak!:cool:
    :rotfl:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Wow - well I have been whosshing today - but am trying not to grind to a halt as there is still the bedroom to hoover (plus bed to make) and - some extra work tonight owing to a slight mishap :o

    Piggie outdoor cages have been soaked owing to the gale force driving rain over the last 36hours so although they are currently drying out, piggies can;t be re-located in Piggie Palace for at least 72 hours - so theyWILL have to stay in lounge (:T:T).

    I have informed parents (who aren;t best pleased) - and it doesn;t help that even I think piggies are stinking tonight so have to change all cages (again) before I got to bed :mad:) - a extra task on top of all the whooshing.

    Tow other things to mention - a sweet and sour day -

    Firstly.......


    Happy Birthday to Beanie :T:beer::A - such a lovely DFW who always had a supportive post ot make on many peepies diaries here :A:A


    You are fantabidosi Hun and don;t you forget it!!:D

    and, Secondly - very very sadly,

    A lovely DFW friend (my very first MSE/DFW post was on her thread) has unfortunately lost their partner yesterday to sarcoma :(. Hugs hun - I'm so glad you met him and had the enjoyment of his company for the last three years - but I'm so very sorry it was so brief (yet glad to hear he went peacefully).

    Despite the fact that the prognosis wasn;t good - it doesn;t diminish the shock, upset and sadness that I feel for you today and what you have been going through :grouphug::grouphug:

    RIP "IT" - truly a diamond geezer

    Sorry to hear about your news regarding your friend, Wol, but at least as you say the end was peaceful.

    On a lighter note - you could always consider locating the piglets under the bed your guests will be sleeping in. The smell might persuade them never to visit again......(Naughty naughty Nargle, slap on wrists!)

    And me Wol. Also sending positive vibes for the weekend with the parentals. My Mum can be pretty nasty to me too - I was talking about her to a friend the other day and friend suggested that when she 'starts' that I should say to myself 'talk to the hand' and try and let it go over my head. Not tried it yet !

    see i think you are all far to polite ... i would just tell my mother where to get off ... i do ... i think that may be part of the reason why we dont have a good relationship lol ... but then i like the one we do have (well i have to admit a bit less of a relationship would make me happier) ... and to me thats what matters
