Oh my. You did it again.Okay, for the first time it is taking me a long time to catch up. I will need to come back to it later, as I need to get on with work. However first I must do this:
Previously in the CDR:
Mark: Went to Naples on a kayaking vacation, he has been teasing us with pics of beautiful beaches and lush forests, with pictures of Alligators, Monkey's, Manatees and weird looking skeletons. We were guessing for a long time where he was going and what that skeleton was. But eventually the brains of the CDR put it together and the guesses were right.
Linda: Has opened up the CDR facebook group, in case the TFO goes down and we cannot chat. This will be our home away from home room. France was visited and JoesDad brought home an unfriendly companion, however he seems to have recovered from the effects of said companion. Linda is putting off the ironing for as long as she can as like the rest of us, it is that job that we just don't like doing.
Lena: Helped with messeging all the friends to get them to join the FB group. and took us on a visit to the little people hiding under slabs in Oslo (which by the way is the land of peace awards) I wonder if the little people thought that Lena was a giant when they saw her? Lena is back at home and seen as how today is Monday, having her chill time. After her busy weekend.
Kathy: After fighting the big fight her Beta did not make it. But has been replaced by Fish Sticks ( Kathy is hoping her son does not choose her grand children's names if the name he gave the beta fish is anything to go by). And there are poppies popping up all over the place where Kathy lives. Kathy just don't smoke them.
Ray: Is still struggling with the infection, and does not want to go and stay in the hospital. He is obviously a home boy and is happiest with his wife. Don't worry Ray it WILL get better.
CathieG: Is sick and tired of the new advertising system, it is crimping her style. However as a result, Cathie has decided to join FB, And yes we were the only group who has persuaded her to join. Yay for us. Cathie has been thinking of getting a Beta fish as well, as all the pics floating around in the CDR looks so good that we all want one too.
Anne: Bold and Pinstripe keep us entertained with their antics. Bold has even gone so far as to dance for his food but once he gets it, you can forget about anymore dancing.
Lyn: Kettles are causing unnecessary extra exercises for Lyn and making her walk up and down flights of stairs. Her physio has gone well and she now has homework to do. Hopefully the homework hound does not eat her homework, otherwise Lyn is going to be punished and may have to walk up and down more flights of stairs. Poor Lola tired taking a bite out of Lyn's hand and as a result missed and caught his beak on her ring instead. Now his beak is missing a piece, as it broke off when he pulled his head back.
Tricia: Has had one person already sign on the dotted line for her house but they are going to carry on showing it, in case a better offer comes along. her dog Sheldon (I wonder if he is named after Sheldon in the Big Bang Theory) has been diagnosed with cancer but still chases the kids around the house like a puppy. Way to go Sheldon, you keep on fighting and being the big lovable old man
Heather: Is recovering from an op, but nothing has stopped and or changed her work ethics. She is still as energetic and on the go as always. Her daughter is making her proud with her achievements and of course thereby making the CDR parents proud of her too. The night house for Toretto is coming along nicely and everything is in place. Heather is just running it to make sure that everything works correctly before moving Toretto in. Who by the way told me, that s/he cannot wait, and it is taking far too long.
Karensocal: Has popped in and cannot keep up with our chatter. We apparently talk wayyyyyyyy to much. But don't worry we will bring her over to the dark side sooner or later. Karen seems to be very well versed in Beta Fish among a few other members, so should be able to help if necessary and if she wants to of course.
Noel: Has decided to paint her house a lovely blue and off cream color (or at least I think it is an off cream. Who knows...) Shelly is knocking down plastic barriers as she either thinks she needs to be fed more or does not like the weather or has places to go. Either way Noel is getting dirty looks and is waiting for Shelly to try her next move.
Yvonne: Is still more energetic than the rest of us, as she is weed eating her gardens and times the battery life to the life of her arm strength. Both give up at the same time to carry on another day.
Reptilony: Is still getting snow and is dreaming of Sunny and Warm days. By the by he also seems to be an expert with Beta fish. So another one who can help.
Todd: Has built his pond under the car port and it looks quite awesome. Snap told me as well that he cannot wait for the bigger turtles to move so that he can get a bigger tank to have some fun in.
Sabine: Is still busy with her work and pets. so no time to say hi over here, but we all miss her and will wait patiently for her next pop in.
CarolM: Has been having electricity cuts all week long, hoepfully this week is better and there are no load shedding days. The weather is a changing on this side - well mostly - although it still feels like summer most days. I m waiting patiently for the one egg that I know about to hatch and are desperately hoping that the egg is not infertile. Anyway I better be patient.
The Wool Spider (if she exists) says that she is not knitting anymore mittens, scarves or hats, as they are just piling up everywhere. The Snow leopard is complaining that the carrots have been scarce lately and or frozen. The hedgehogs lost some quills the other day when they were frightened and ask if anybody sees them to please return them to them as soon as possible. The one legged pirate seems to have run out of Sherry and says that the Leprechaun borrowed money from the till and now does not want to pay up. He has recommended that we put him back into the tank as punishment again and does not know why we let the Leprechaun out in the first place. The leprechaun says that it was not him and that it was that horse .... you know the one with no name who disappeared into the desert. Personally I think that the Leprechaun is talking nonsense and should have his cookies confiscated as punishment.
Montgomery asks if anybody would like some coffee or tea and if so he will be along shortly. Silly and Willy are missing Sabine but are enjoying the sardines that they found in corner 17. The Jellyfish have told me that they feel like they are being abused what with all the poking that they get. So we came to an agreement and we must please ask their permission first if we want to poke them for light. They may just glow for us without having to be poked if we ask nicely when we need some light.
Until next time......the saga continues......
