LAUNDRETTA COME STOMPING IN LATE last night complaining about a night of low bookings (at her whorehouse). Then shouted at the top of her voice, "Have they been round yet to put bait down for those mice?" SHE might have mice in her room; I do not. Evilstein, my landlord, was staring pointedly at Mousey's tank during that "room invasion" the other day. But I've had things like old hammy wheels lying about amidst the clutter for ages (since I moved in). I did have two dwarf hammies before here: one Campbells ("condensed hamster") the other Siberian Winter White - who was beautiful. Like a miniaturized furry hippo. The one I've got now is a Chinese "mouster")because he looks at first glance just like a mouse. Only his fur is richer reddy-brown, he has a black dorsal stripe, a stubby little tail (much longer than a normal hamster's but nothing like a mouse's tail), poppy black eyes much more like a woodmouse's than a common house mouse's eyes and white ears (not mushroomy or pink, like a normal mouse). Also he has cheek pouches, though they're barely ever used (not like a tubby "normal" hammy who will pack them to near-exploding-point ...) If they dare poison my pet I swear I will take the evidence to the RSPCA and get all the papers on to it. Maybe ten, fifteen years ago nobody would have been interested in a story like that. But times have changed and today the crime of animal cruelty - even to rodents - is prosecuted. By the way, I've been wondering why he has such massive balls (Mother Hubbs says that's why he doesn't want to run the wheel. Because they will scrape on behind ...) ... well I think it's because he comes from the Mongolian steppes where it is very dry they are to hold in water - just like a camel's humps - for when breeding season arrives and he goes off rambling in search of a lady Chinese Mouse ... Well that could be plausible. By the way: if you click this Midland Hamster club link, my one is "natural" colouring, like the one in the background.

Welshcakes: I've still got all the ingredients (down to real butter) but have failed to make them. I ate so many currants in the night (two handfuls every time I woke up. Which was a lotta times.) That I felt veritably ill when I woke up. Also last night was an almighty sleepcatchingup session. So I was "gone" from eleven p.m. until two p.m. this afternoon ...

No more news at present. I'm just trying to get myself prepared to go out tomorrow morning for this "shrink interview" on time ...
And a good afternoon
