Haven't seen a post on SFA from Bonkey for a while.

Abducted by aliens?

Eaten alive by the BigPig and LittlePig (he has a glint in his eye that LittlePig)

Ou est tu? (that's French- a bit)

I've been wondering where Bonkey is too.

Dragged away by the shetland pony to an area of the West Country where there is no wifi?

Where are you Bonkey?

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 25/04/2013 20:59

Maybe she took the Shitland (her description not mine) to the school Pet Day and got a rather extended Detention?

BrianCoxandTheTempleofDOOM · 25/04/2013 21:05

I'm on her FB, I will give her a nudge in your general direction

BonkeyMollocks · 25/04/2013 21:14

Helloooo

My Fb just went loopy

I haven't been on Mn much lately - hence the no posts .

I am sadly not famous at school for taking Shitland in for pet day :(
Pigs or hammy didn't go either - far far too much stress for me .

BigPig and LittlePig are currently sprawled out after being...well pigs

How is everyone? Furries and humans!

BonkeyMollocks · 25/04/2013 21:15

Well yeh....smack bang mid-twenties :( - halfway to 30 :(

Sleepingbunnies · 25/04/2013 21:46

Happy birthday bonkey! :)

FernieB · 26/04/2013 07:55

Happy birthday (day late, sorry)! Hope the pigs treated you nicely.

BTW mid-twenties! I can barely remember those

fortifiedwithtea · 26/04/2013 12:05

Happy Birthday Bonkey! In my head I'm the same age as you.

Pity the rest of me isn't. Hobbles off --wonders if 70 knows a quick cure for plantar fasciitis .

guineapiglet · 26/04/2013 13:02

Hi Bonkey - strange, Iwas thinking it is a long time since we heard about how your boys and other assorted creatures were getting on - glad you are OK and hope you had a vhb..... Like you Fortifed seems like a long and distant memory to be mid 20's ,

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/04/2013 13:21

You need a supportive insole fortified sort of built up in the arch of your foot. and slightly raised on the heel (Inner side) to stop your foot rolling in. (Usually PF is a strain type injury. But some people have an enthesiopathy- which is where the tendons/ligaments attatched to the sole of the heel become damaged )
Topical gel ( over the counter Ibuleve/Movelat even Arnica gel can help)

If it's really bad, your GP can refer you for a steroid injection.

It can disappear as spontaneously as it crops up. But it's painful when you have it.

I sometimes stick a D shaped felt pad in the arch of my foot if I have it.Temporary but it helps.

Thanks guinea folk - I was quite touched you missed me .

Whats all this foot talk?

And has guinea got pigs yet??

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/04/2013 17:32

Gives Bonkey a large glass of water and 2 paracetamol.
Coffee coming up.

(Got way-layed by talk of Plantar Fasciitis )

Guineapiglet is currantly clearing pig space on her new house lawn and looking at a nearby rescue to steal guineas volunteer.

She's moved so you can't post LittlePig to her. (I'd be sending GP2 , little turd peed on me while I was cuddling him)
My fault for giving him too many dandelion leaves .

BonkeyMollocks · 26/04/2013 17:55

Yay for guineas for guinea!!

LittlePig has been a angel lately - tis nail clipping night tonight though so I doubt that will last!

I have a question!
BigPig has become rather energetic of late and is enjoying a zoom around his cage a couple of times a day I find it rather amusing to watch his podgy arse wobble round at top speed - is he happy or has he gone insane?

BonkeyMollocks · 26/04/2013 17:56

Oh and news!!!

I was mistaken!!! I think my singing pig is BigPig!!

Which fully explains why he looked so darn guilty when i walked in!!!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 27/04/2013 10:58

The energy spurt is probably animal + springtime (It's been late this year)
I put the boys out in their run last couple of weeks (only for a couple of hours ).
GP1 has been doing his Popcorning and leaping about.

Their new trick is : both of them go into the hay tunnel (about 18" long) and face each other off.
Neither moves.
They can't both fit in to pass each other by.
It goes on for aaaaaaagges.

With GPs happiness and insanity are linked

Hi all glad to hear spring is in the air ! I'm sure the guineas feel like we do about spring, glad to be outside and strutting our stuff......sounds like your boys are growing up and settling nowbonkey, we will need video evidence of the midnight singer, bless! No guineas for me yet, but just put notice up in local shop re small pet sitting, still brutally attacking front garden to see if a lawn could be put in, suitable for small furries. It is full of spikey plants and hideously painful thorny things. I could weep when I think of all the bee and guinea friendly plants we left up north... Lemon balm. My girls loved hiding in it, pretending they were in an episode of I'm a celebrity..... They smelled divine when they were finally caught!

fridayfreedom · 27/04/2013 16:17

My boys are a bit barmy as well at the moment, big pig who is normally a bit lardy was popcorning this morning... Spring is here

BonkeyMollocks · 28/04/2013 18:06

D'ya know - I didn't even think about that spring feeling!

at a face off in the tunnel! I can just imagine my two doing that if they ever get back together
