POOR BABY ITCHY!
She took at 150ft tumble (in robo-feet) last night. And lay on her side utterly immobile. Seriously I thought she was dead. Thankfully she was merely "winded". And quickly sprang back to life - with a pronounced limp. I honestly thought she had broken a "twig" else ruptured something internally. Thankfully all was well and the limp's gone now. The only thing injured was her robbie-pinginess - for about half an hour. She hid in a toilet tube and washed her ears and sulked.
I have to say despite her peanut-eating she's still my thinnest robby. She DID expand in size - but, like a Eurostar train with extra carriages, she just added the length to her bum.
Bashful is my prettiest robbie. She is perfectly proportioned with a "charming" face. She bats her eyelashes at me - then bites me out of "curiosity" and because she's so cute I forgive her every time...
Spherical, as the name implies, looks heavily pregnant and being quite possibly a good year older than the other two is age-wearied and cynical (she gazes at me balefully sometimes as if to say "if you think I'm gonna go nuts for half a peanut and a wilting broccoli sprig you gotta nother thing comin' sweetheart.") But she is entertaining. One minute she ignores my interfering hands (refilling water bottle, dumping wild birdseed down etc); the next she spots me out the corner of an eye and plays scaredy hammy; spluttering about like a furball of fire and panicking the other two, who go pinging up and down equally pointlessly as if a funnel web spider were in their midst... the fat swine! Because she's so heavy and seems to run the exercise wheel the most enthusiastically (she's got a real exercise fixation) if either of the other two dare venture on, the chances are they'll end up clinging for dear life to the wire spokes, endlessly looping the loop as Spherical thunders tubbily onwards, desperate to work off her extra wooly robo-weight...
Thank God little Itchy is fine!

Have a look at these American "fall" photos... the scarlet maple leaves... THAT is why I say American autumn is so much more intensely colourful than its British counterpart....

I'm glad the little one is ok. they sure can bounce when they have to.
She's fine ;->...
Thanks for posting that little Chinese boy swimming with the whale!
Great post *!* .... wonderful descriptions of your little fur balls I had pictures of them running along my screen as I read your words. Lucky Baby Itchy just winded and hurt pride I bet.
I'm glad that Baby is fine, Gled. You had me concerned there for a while, as is obvious, you were, too!
Nicole: I first saw that featured in the daily paper... then as I logged on to Youtube 3 days ago it was a "featured video"... brilliant, isn't it~?!?
Bimbimbie: I know. Silly gremlin - jumped off for no real reason except a bit of over-excitement
Lee: I would have gone mental if something really was wrong I would never have forgiven myself
Well.. about my hand. I went to this house to take a swim.. and used the trampoline and I slipped on it when I jumped..=/
Get well soon. It looks like you'd goughed holes out of it!
;->...
I am glad there was no permanent damage. I had the best chuckle reading this post and imagining pinging furballs!
PS... I know Winnie as Winnie the Pooh (with an H at the end) Pooh was the sound Winnie made while trying to blow flies off his nose when his arms were stuck up in the air, so Christopher Robin called him Winnie the Pooh!
Yeah I know I "accidentally" left off that H on porpoise!!
Hi
that big wall you saw on my blog was a wall used for the protection of the city... like a castle wall that surrounded the old city ("a villa")
Guimaraes is a very old city with over 1000 years, and has an amazing heritage, such as this wall, the castle, the palace (which you can see part at the topo of this photo) and many other monuments :)

cheers
thank you so much for featuring me!
i just started the blog today, since i have so many photos that i want to share with the world.
thanks again, it made my day. i own a hamster......we adopted him since he was abused before by his previous guardians. he now happily sleeps, east cheese and apples everyday and we pet him tons.
britain is such a historically powerful and beautiful place to live. so much history, innovation and culture........canada is quite bland compared to europe. the only powerful thing about US is San Francisco, New York, and i would say cities like Detroit and Chicago...otherwise also cultureless.
thanks alot
julia
Thanks for the plug, Gledwood. You just think no heavy political stuff! ;-) Will keep an eye on your pages. I really like some of your stuff.

Ah, poor baby! Do give her a cuddle from Simi and me. What a lovely description of all of them.
Hi Gleds
Its lovely to hear about your hammies, do they cheer you up? Its a right miserable day so I hope you have not had to go out. How are you getting on? Are you trying to reduce the drugs? Just think you could be clean for Christmas!
all the best

I'm glad baby Itchy was ok. Thanks for your helpful SLOW gin comment....lol The problem is it's esier to find Sloes than Tortoises round here :o) My favourite childhood bear was Rupert too...hated his trousers though!
Rx
Nagrakiller: Thanks for leaving your url; I'm often v bad at sorting out where I had been...
As I said, that picture was extremely evocative... made me feel almost like I'd been there before!
Julia: Well re what you say about North America: In a way I'm glad to live in Europe bc I feel that once we cross the English Channel the world really IS on our doorstep.. not just a bunch of people who speak the same language with a slightly different accent... America really is isolated GEOGRAPHICALLY though this point is hardly ever raised... I would so much love to go travelling at leisure and with money (not backpacking really!) thru Europe to "discover" it...
Having said that I would love to do America and Canada too!
Grumblebear: come on post up that heavy political stuff!
Sadgirl: They certainly make me laugh sometimes! I have to be careful not to laugh literally in their faces as it makes them all scared... then they run about pinging up and down looking very entertaining in faked-up "panic"..!
Ruth: o yeah! I'd never considered that about tortoises...
Our local pet shop sells baby terrapins tho... they're tiny and really cute and not THAT expensive (I think you can get one for £50...) hang on what am I wasting time saying this for I never did check out the price... but I don't think it's 2 hi... (ooer!)
Hi Gleds ~~ I am so glad that baby Itchy was not hurt in the fall and
is quite OK. I had a big teddy bear
(without a name) just an almost orange colour and I loved him. Many years later I gave him to my eldest son tp play with (and he wrecked poor Teddy. My father was not amused, and
neither am I, now!! Take care, and keep on writing here and for your book/ You are a busy guy. Regards,
Merle.
Thanks Merle... you didn't have a famous "literary" bear then..??
So glad baby itchy is ok they are all obviously very precious to you
My favourite bear was definitely Paddington just love that hat, duffle and wellies, I used to have a bean fillied Paddington that I loved but its disappeared somewhere. My kids also had a talking Bingo bear that used to say 'will you give me a hug and rub my tummy etc etc my daughter found one on ebay not long ago to give to my Grandson pleasant memories associated with Bingo
LOL Yes Im still here...but just 10 more days to go...so looking forward to it.
Have a happy Sunday
Auds x
Glad you're OK, Auds; I was getting worried about you!
No, my post, (http://community.livejournal.com/needlefuck/55966.html),
wasn't about IV drug use. It's about consensual needle play as related to bdsm and to ritual bdsm play.
Are you talking about a human vampire type thing?
I wouldn't get why else you'd want to stick needles into yourself except (and this isn't a list of MY tastes, please be informed!!)
1. to inject drugs
2. to self-harm
3. to draw blood for drinking/"vampiric" purposes...
what else left is there, except common assault..?!?
I'm so happy to hear the Itchy is okay.
