Up Close and Personal

Maybe I should say Percy-nal. It's a very long time since he had a turn at being the Blip. He's rather camera shy - and an escapologist par excellence. 

Today TM said he thought P had a tick - a regular problem, and we have a nifty gadget for extracting them. The difficult bit is keeping hold of him long enough to perform the operation, which takes about 1 second once the parasite is located. It's a two-person job.

I was determined to have a picture of him while TM had him pinned down, but he gave me his far-away look, the one that says 'I am simply going to rise above all this ridiculous palaver and think great thoughts till you cease and desist.'

And as it happened, there was no tick - just a scab left by the last one I pulled off him.  Sorry, Percy ....
