Mine will be under the cut. but first…

Was home at the weekend, and my tickets have arrived, which is all to the good. This despite the fact that on the website where you go to check the status of your tickets it says they are in the process of being printed.

The weekend was not a good one on the pet front, as the puppy-dog bashed his tail against something on Friday and his usual every-day-mood is one of “oooh, look stuff. Great.” while wagging his tail. By Friday evening he’d learned that wasn’t such a good idea as it hurt. And because he is a big baby all you’d hear was this clatter of nails on the wooden floor as he got up, all happy to see someone, and then a sudden whine.
Still, by Sat he seemed to have learned and there was no more whining. Although that may just have been because his tail wasn’t quite so damaged anymore.

The other major incidence was the loss of one of the fish. Yes, one of the sister’s poor goldfish died on Sat. We’re blaming the other one for its murder, but as of yet Sharkey and George are otherwise engaged and can’t come to bust this crime of the fish-tank.

Brother #4 took possession of the expired fish as he was going to bring it down the pub and drop in someone’s pint. A decision which then prompted much discussion between himself and Brother #3 over whether it would be better to put it in a pint of cider, or light coloured beer and so have the drinker spot it. Or would it be better to place the fish that was no more into the end of a pint of Guinness in the hopes that someone might actually take a swig of dead-fish-pint.

But all this discussion came to naught as in the end he stayed in on sat., so the fish ended up taking the more traditional journey to the next world, yup, down the loo.

However, the family have managed to steal two cats. Well, one is a stray and while it turns up almost every day for feeding, it won’t let you get too close. While the other loves being petted, but we still think it started out life as a stray. Just a friendlier type. But the neighbours are also trying to steal it by the cunning and tricksy use of … food!

  6. Yes Anne, very cheeky. Stealing out stolen cat just aint on.

    I’m sure he’ll be grand Carl, he did the same thing two or three years ago. He’s just far too enthusiastic with his happiness. I blame the lab half being combined with the dalmation tail. Dalmations are far too dignified to ever get so happy they need to break your leg by waggin their tail.

    Ann, you’ll have to get the whole O’Hailpin family in now :)

  7. Hey SciFiChick, sorry for the delay in approving your comment, that was the reason it didn’t go through first time :)

  8. I had trouble loading the page anyway.. I didn’t think it went through the first time.. I kept getting errors.
