Be sure to freeze the eggs first before disposal or you risk creating an invasive species outbreak. I wish I had known that eight months ago. Too late now! -Ralph

6 Stickies have departed from Beta Site to Gamma Site. 10 remain at Beta until the end of the month when they shift to Delta Site. Then Alpha Site is dissolved and the 9 Alphans move to Beta Site which will then be redesignated as Alpha Site.

I am told the 6 Gamma Site Stickies have been taken away on a holiday.

Turns out the wee chihuahua is proving a bit too much for Gran to look after, so little Suki is coming to Turnbull Towers.

We have temporary custody of Dave and Sunny the ferrets until their mum has her move in date for the new abode for them all. They are lovely.

No, but she has peed on my bed.

Sticky update.
Alpha Site is no more. The 9 there moved to Beta Site, which is the new Alpha Site. At former Beta Site, 6 have gone to a new home (Gamma Site) and 10 of them are between Delta Site and Omega Site until Power Site is ready.

And we were talking about kettles for tea which rhymes with pee and wee.
Think it through, man.

Oh no, wait. Suki took the kettle off, didn't she. Polly put it on.

Hey, you could impress her with the news that I got very positive feedback from parents for the online library I set up for our school children during lockdown. I have also just forced every teacher in my school to create accounts with the local county library to use books electronically in the classroom. I was genuinely surprised by the number who admitted not to having a library card, but they bloody well do now!

The ferret's mummy is away on a camping trip so we are in charge of feeding them tomorrow.

Suki can now get all the way up the stairs by herself. Getting down is a bigger challenge and one to work on. She's a bit more confident in the back and front garden, so will maybe go for a wee walk on Saturday. She ends up in my lap usually sleeping on one of my arms for the last couple of hours of the evening.
I'd missed having a dog around the house, she's a braw wee soul.

She did the same thing today, jumped up on the step. Realised what she'd done barked in annoyance and then jumped straight back down.
We also managed a few trips up and down the stairs in the house.
A brief walk outside - her first, she is very frightened of cars and the noise they make, so we didn't go far, and the first people who walked past had her so terrified she wouldn't move. The next few people she was a bit better with as they had kids who wanted to clap her. She has been rewarded with lots of treats for her bravery.

Fatality!
One of the Elder Stickies has gone to the Big Leaf In The Sky. Possibly another 2. Not sure if they were playing dead. Will monitor over next 24 hours. They have faked death before.
The 5 Younglings are still being annoying.

Another adult sticky has expired for sure. 2 of the original 5 remain.
In other news, the ferrets have now left to go to stay in their mummy's new house. Sad.

Both ferrets escaped first night at their mum's new house! They are now in Ferret Jail for 3 weeks so they don't do it again! Ralph misses the ferrets. -Ralph

Are you responsible for their mum's locomotive injury? A foul plot to try and keep the ferrets longer??

No. Jen was helping her move house. Apparently, Claire dropped a bookcase on her own foot.
