Minnie

Rowan went to a friends party this morning. I am not very good at remembering things and, on the way there, it suddenly dawned on me that I really didn't have a clue where the party was as I had only glanced at the invite...anyway, there aren't many bowling places around here and it was the right one so he arrived on time! When I collected him later....after mooching around the hell that is a retail park....he came running out, saying "Mum, I was second last!" That's my boy!!

I'd promised the boys a new guinea pig especially as we are off on our jollies this week (yehhhh!) and we didn't want our remaining guinea pig, Donut, to be lonely when we're away. It was all a bit rushed. The boys chose this one...well, actually they chose another first but it appeared to have ringworm so this one was second best. She is very cute and shiny and her coat is so soft. She seems quite chirpy and strong willed too. We had all decided on the name Doris but she doesn't really look like a Doris so we opted for Minnie as she looks like a mouse. She has settled in nicely and Donut is very protective of her.
