Babies and Rides!

Eeeee, this past couple of days have been interesting. Again, filling my time meaning I don’t have time I blog. Ho hum.

So yeah, yesterday I went and collected my two baby guinea pigs, or, as their more commonly known in this house : squeaky pigs. Ones ginger with a white stripe up her nose and across her tummy, the others got a black face, and a ginger and white body! They we're originally known as the nameless babies, but now, I feel they may be called Luna and Pixie. They spent all yesterday hiding out the way like little wimps in the cage next to my bed - they will go out side when there a little bigger, its too cold and wet for them right now! After spending all yesterday hiding out the way, they decided to wake me up at like 3:30 this morning play fighting and squealing at each other, and as I’d only had them 8 hours I didn’t realise what it was and I was no a happy bunny!


This morning, I awoke to more squeaking, and alas, it was the babies! After a quick feeding and watering of animals, humans, fish and all others in-between - including Black Bird and now her baby, and the frog that has taken up residence in a disused litter tray full of rain water in the garden, I set off on a magical trip to Light Water Valley with the old Music Centre. It was an interesting trip there...being on the baby bus, well, not a small bus, but a bus full of the young'uns, took me right back to my first year! Well, on the baby bus there I sat with Helen T and Megan, with the Troublesome Trio (Clare, Rach and Helen J) behind us, it was an amusing bus ride, which included us lot, with Jess and Alice joining Ian and Oscar in a rousing -strictly against Senior Strings code of conduct - sing along including renditions of such classics including: Ten Green Bottles, Yellow Submarine, Corellis Christmas Concerto, Grease Mega Mix, Britton’s Simple Symphony, Frère Jacque and Kookaburra Sits In The Old Gum Tree (plus many more attempted tunes) and Mrs Birds 'Allo 'Allo impression -saying things only ''v'once'' ya'know =] ... we eventually arrived at our long awaited (5 hour away *ahem* little kids) destination.

Us 'oldies' and Jamie - the wind band oldie- hung around together all day it was entertaining.... instead of rushing our dinners, we sat and played wink murder for over an hour! Some of us are nearly 19, but hey, we know how to have a good time! We only went on the Ultimate once, we're showing our age a bit these days - gone have the times Clare and I could jump off, run down the stairs and back the other side to get on the next train. The Sewer Rat didn’t seem as scary as it use to, and the new camel ride which replaced one of the other silly little rides I loved to go on was also fun fun fun, especially when it said 'Only One Adult Per Camel' and two rather large women squished themselves into one and the camel couldn’t go up!!! It made me chuckle to myself a fair few times when I looked over my shoulder.

The Swan pedelos were also rather amusing. Firstly, boys will be boys, Oscar Ian and Matthew T thought it would be funny to act like pirates and bang into us all the time whilst chucking sweets at us! (us being.... Me, Clare, Helen J and Jamie.) Secondly, the wind was a biatch and blew us every where apart from where we wanted to go. Thirdly, the said boys nearly ran aground - bless them and their manly navigating. And, Mr W asked me to be the 'responsible adult' on one of the swans with a group of littlies so that they didn’t have to miss their go as there weren’t enough adults to kiddiewinks!

The coach (baby bus) ride home was slightly less entertaining, with most people falling asleep, and a few bits of gossip being passed -not that I can say it on here- hehe.

When I got home it turns out that mums convinced that one of the baby girlies is a baby boy! It means that im gonna have to double check the sex of my animals in the morning... they've had far too much excitement for one day! A new tunnel to play in AND some cucumber!

On that note, im must go put my minagary to bed!
Nighty night guys! x
