Frogerama!
I truly believe that gorgeous Señor Froggie, decked out in his alluring finery, has made all the difference. The very day after he appeared, resplendent in his pagan florals, his froggie friends began arriving for their Spring sojourn in Pond 1.
Don’t tell me they weren’t lured by this fine upstanding figure of a frog. How could they resist? His romantic antecedents made it a dead cert. He has since cast off his potent mix of primulas, snowdrops, croakus, lungwort and daff, in exchange for a candle, which he holds aloft day and night, to be a beacon to all amorous amphibians everywhere. Like a small but stalwart Statue of Ribbity, he stands erect in Big Window, a tiny twinkly light of hope in a murky world.
Let your starry flame glow in the depths of Night, Señor Froggy. We salute you!
Ohforgoodnessake, here’s the slide show if you want to see what the pulchritudinous fornicators are up to. Should you feel the need, there are a great many more on my photostream…the link for which cornucopia appears in BlogRoll.
Right. Me and marmers, I have to report, are, as I type, languishing in Big Cage. Our servants are doing a runner to Inversneckie for a couple of days. Goodness knows what for! We don’t care anyway, our Auntie Janice loves us and, in return, we amuse her by taking turns to pose on our shared scratching-post. Like the noble purreditors that we are…
I trust you not to take advantage of our absence to post ribaldry and other unsuitable stuff
. This is a respectable blog.

by the way ,you’re pu’s go to some really exotic destinations–Inversneckie!! i ask you; whats stopping them coming to whitianga i.e
me again —love your slideshow!!
Inversneckie sounds delightful (especially if the serfs are going to be there). Auntie Janice probably deserves a medal for putting up with you two self-centred pussums. I’ve got one of those myself (old blue eyes says hello btw).
Frogerama? Frog-gate more likely! I smell a toad.
I’m keeping an eye on youse…*yaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwnnnnnnn*
good grief your up at the crack of dawn fc,hunger pangs???
I had to avert my gaze, FC. Such unbridled orgiastic goings-on. But I see from one of the photos that you are taking a superior attitude to these activities. Funny, I thought you’d have been more paws-on…
Did the PUs do the waterworks all by themselves? I am impressed. As to the frogs, clearly some of them do not swim too well, and required help: how they held on to the necks of their mates for dear life!! How/where do the adult frogs winter?
You’ve let the staff escape????? Tsssk.
What an invasion! No need for ribald comments, the photies say it all. Can others detect what I see, that EffCee is actually a bit scared of the froggies so doesn’t dare put a paw in the water?
mmmmm tapioca

Too cold, barney
Forget Monty in Applecross- we’ll all be tuning in to FC version of EDEN channel from now on!
I miss frogs! Can you ask some of them to move over here to the farm??
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment.
except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog 

I don’t know what to say
I will keep visiting this blog very often.
You pop by as often as you like Petbey, and if you feel the need to leave a little token of your visit, like me’n'Marmers do in the neighbours’ gardens, feel free to do so…


Hello islespictures, nice to see you!
Some of us would like to forget Monty in Applecross. I hope the locals made loadsadosh out of his brief brush with meaningless subsistance (aye right!) and laughed all the way to the Inn. I’m not surprised the ‘deal’ on Gavin Maxwell’s old place ‘fell through at the last minute’…Ptui!
Tapioca is an excellent way to thicken chicken and sweetcorn soup without it becoming cloudy…
And…as you can see, we’re freecats once again. The parental sojourn in Dolphinsludge meant Purple Sweetie coming home full to the gun’les with eerie-orums and suchlike. Including a bag of mixed blue materials from a quilt shop…of which more anon.
did they have a gud time
i’m waiting for my avatar but its not coming through yet–uncle les sez it takes time
I don’t remember it taking that long taddoe. Though the two hours or so it did take felt like a cat’s age at the time
Petbey, you must have a funny sense of humor or none at all to tarry on this blog. Plenty like you, it seems. # Did the PUs spend a fortunre at the Opt. place? and they still can’t find their glasses, eh?!
i gave uncle les my password and he’s checked and said i’ve done everything ok,its just that it hasn’t been processed yet
Uncle Les does it again. Were you beginning to doubt me? Apparently she was trying to make us think she was a little risqué!
well,there is still a problem—just replied to another blog and its still not coming up

Come on FC where are you - she’s doubting my abilities here
so its coming up everywhere except on my computer
SCREAM
think its ok now-trying
hell its came up on the ib blog page but i cant see it here
Les Les I’m here fur ye I’m here fur ye! You’re the man. Take no notice of the Doubting Thomasinas… PG? Primo-Geniture? Paltry Guidance? Puddin’ Guide?
Ummmmmmm…are you logged in taddoe? Just asking…
Mjc, its taking a fortnight for the specs to be processed and sent up. A bit like taddoe’s avatar. Which I am looking forward to seeing immensely, after the build-up
So where is it then? You don’t want to go messing with a fire fox, that’s just a glorified dug that is. If you’ve got a avatar set up on Gravatar, all these little patchwork blocks should turn into the all-new-singin’-dancin’-taddoe-avatar!
well they didn’t!! i even gave uncle les the password and for once it wasn’t my fault
Not you as well FC? If you are not seeing what everyone in the world can now see it’s because your browser is reading the page from a cache. You need to clear your cache and reload the page. I explained to Taddoe how to do this but as you are using one of those overcoat things maybe running some sort of African wildlife holiday I can’t (won’t!) help you. Live with your choices! (Okay I’ll help if you are going to pine away).
I AM SO ,SO,sorry but at time of reading this blog-i love your hubby
hell not mpu but les’s other half!!
Forgot to say it was Taddoe’s fault really - she put herself down for a PG rated avatar trying to get us all interested. According to Gravatar PG stands for “may contain rude gestures, provocatively dressed individuals, the lesser swear words, or mild violence”. When you see her avatar there’s none of that at all!
This, not being that sort of site, only accepts G rated avatars. Don’t even ask what the R and X rated ones are!
Now I’m either confused or gay!
Les’ Majestie speaks and we obey! I forgot all about m’cache, keep thinking its a wee purrivate store of dead rodents under the sofa..SHHHH

Hey I can see you now taddoe. Very revealing…grandmère!
I’ve just read the newest comments…er…when did you convert to the Sappho tendency???
No no no Les, taddoe’s confused. Its living all upsidey-downsey that does it
I was sorely tempted by the X-rated avatar idea, but luckily my better nature ruled the day…
Isn’t it grand that Mister Fourex isn’t left flying the flag for otherly orientation all alone? Now taddoe’s Come Out…
All this hurly burly for a missing avatar! Grown-ups too, they call themselves. You might as well be bankers.
Dearie me, I hope that’s not rhyming slang mjc! Grown-up? I never called myself a grownup, I’m only 5 you know. And taddoe’s not far behind…
Weesht
Were you looking for some frogs legs for supper fc.?. Lots of sex on your patch.

I have been searching and searching but never can get my teeth into the dear wee froggies. A couple of years ago, I did. They’ve got very wary here in Rolling Acres. Now why could that be…
Whatever happened to taddoe (uncharacteristically silent)? She was off to Samoa or some such, was she not? Personally, I would settle for a handful of authentic samosas.
Still there. Phoned last evening. Afferheid! In the nicest possible way
