We're still here!


Tiddles and I haven't been eaten by Stepford Bunnies, or fallen down any deep holes....we've just been really busy with gardening jobs and suchlike, as the weather has been so good! We've made a vegetable garden for a friend, and cleared an overgrown woodland, phew! Hard work for a middle-aged human bean, and an invisible tiger with short arms! Owen wrote a brilliant poem for Tiddles, which made me laugh so much! You can experience more of Owen's brilliance at his blog, http://magiclanternshowen.blogspot.com/ beautiful and interesting images and tales, well worth visiting!


"Oh where, Oh where Did Tiddles go?

Many are asking

But nobody knows...

Some say kidnapped

By dastardly rabbits

Others say in the forest

Developing bad habits

Did an evil-eyed rabbit

Push him down a deep well?

Did a coven of rabbit witches

On him cast a sleeping spell?

Did he ride off on a tricycle

To go get some chips?

Did he ride down to the port

And sail off on a ship?

Oh where, Oh where Did Tiddles go?

Many are asking

But nobody knows..."


I hope you are all well, and look forward to visiting you at your blogs to see what's been happening!

So glad you and Tiddles are back! We missed you! Thanks for visiting and the wonderful comment...Owen's poem is fantastic and made me laugh, too!

Oh my,my,my...You have come back with a bang! That map is brilliant (love that hot dog van - yes, I know you've actually got one!) Ahhhh, and Owen's poem :D - both of you are "too much"!

Owen said...

I'm blushing ! LOL ! Well, you know, us red heads, (I prefer "strawberry blond", thank you very much) blush easily. I'm sure Tiddles does too, it's just with all that fur on his face, he can hide it !

Love that Bunny Sailing School, and the tiger face in the compass sign, but I must say, I'm a little concerned about what could be going on with those young surfer types at "Bong" beach ??? I don't know what "bong" may mean in Scotland, but I know what it means in America, or I did anyway, back in the 1970's when we used to construct them out of anything available ! (But like Bill Clinton, I never inhaled, right! And don't tell Tiddles about that stuff, Tigers don't need to know!)

So happy to see you back ! Hope the squawks of the zombie fowls don't keep you up nights ! ;-D

Hi Guys!
Nice to see you!
I started the map ages ago....I remember it being freezing as I was trying to draw it, and in fact, I got so cold, I couldn't finish it!
Owen, 'Bong' is from The Owl and Pussycat, where they go to the Land where the Bong Tree grows....and the surfer dudes are the piggywigs who live in that land. They are actually Bong Pigs, and they are ill with itchy spots a few posts down on the blog where Tiddles is being a nurse. Ooh, I'm puffed out now, haha!

Hi Liz, welcome back! I was wondering where you and Tiddles had wandered off to. How did the boot sale go? I love the map of Fluffville...and the dangerous (frogs?) lurking off shore...and the all-weather ski slope!

Hi Liz, welcome back! Any photos of your gardening exploits? :)

Hi There!

i like your blog, really interesting!

I see one of your favourite books is the Kite Runner. Then you MUST try 'A Thousand Splendid Suns' by the same author. They say is even better than Kite Runner, which I haven't read yet. but going to!!!

Have a lovely day!!

:D esi

And I just read Desi's post and true! I love Khalid H's books. The two are pretty different but amazing.

Nice day! Lol, nice poem too!
