Wilfred


Here's a new addition to the family called Wilfred or maybe just Wilf? No sure yet - it may change. He's a young albino hamster who darts around the cage very quickly and so difficult to get a photo of him that isn't blurred! He loves his wheel and woke me up last night racing round in it ( where's that oil can? ) and that in turn made Flo the rabbit ( in the hutch inderneath ) very grumpy and bang her feet so quite a racket going on. Hazel didn't hear a thing ofcourse.
Still have the lousy cold and so stayed in again today and caught up with some blogging and Sunday papers.
Hazel and Archie took Audrey to hear a choir sing carols over at the Craft Centre. They came back with gifts including a handy gas lighter for singeing all the hairs off the back of your wrist and some sugar monster teeth. Also a nice victorian looking glass lamp to burn candles in.

Ahhhhh blessss... what a cute mouse. Hope you're all feeling a bit better.
Been very busy since we got back from France. Writing a pirate story, visiting schools.
Tomorrow Mike's coming over to put the percussion and tabla on the new CD. Hurrah.

How's the new space book coming along?

Wilfred is most definately a hamster. I will try and take a better photo of him so you can see his stuffed cheek pouches!
We are recovering from our various ailments. My cold is now a tickly cough mostly. I have been slurping the Buttercup Syrup.
Pirates eh? Shiver me timbres! ( said the french postman pirate )
I've sent the Space Book back to you today so you should get it soon.
