Crikey, Bunglie, you're going through cages like there's no tomorrow. You're ging to have to stop chewing the bars like that. Grin

How you getting on in there, secur? Do you want the tranquilliser gun so that you can trim her nails, or is she still out cold from all of that voddy?

right I declare the cage clean-the poor young man I sent in to do her nails came back fairly heavily scared-must remember to add extra vodka next time.

Still, all in all a well spent few hours, I have only ruined one set af amour plated waders and the asbestos (sp?) gloves are only steaming a little.

As predicted though I do need to find another plan for next weeks cleaning session-I can manage the food and water, as long as everyone remembers not to steal her mouse and upset her.

Has she lost that flipping mouse again? Make sure she hasn't done the same thing with it as she did with the gerbil, it makes such a wet mess on the floor and it would be a shame for you to have to start cleaning again so soon ...

There will that do?

I have worked so hard-just getting ready for the xmas break, who is taking the bunglie home for the holidays?

I would love to, sadly we have allergies.

WigWamBam · 13/12/2004 19:25

Sorry, I've got a cat, and heaven knows what Bunglie would do with it ...

saintlysecur · 13/12/2004 20:02

leaves WK or MTS then!

Couldn't leave her with teh F.H.s it's just not fair Wink

Ps, PS is allowed to handle bunglie-may not keep her quiet but at least it keeps her occupied!

feastofstevenmom · 13/12/2004 20:04

oooh no would love to do it but have an ...... [rack brain] ....unavoidable engagement. all next week. so absolutely can't

guess that leaves wk. who I am sure would be far better at it anyway. so who's your favourite scrubber out of us lot, Bunglie? Grin

saintlysecur · 13/12/2004 20:07

well WK is the best at organising her care, so I guess she would be best Wink

good luck WK Grin

Any of you ace cleaners fancy coming around here and cleaning up after my dd tonight? Just spent over half an hour cleaning up after a marathon sickness session, and I suspect it's going to be a long night ... could do with reinforcements (bring your own mop)!

feastofstevenmom · 13/12/2004 21:01

steven is under the weather too atm - think it's 1)the weather 2)all these Xmas shoppers mobbing town is a bit of a theme park for bugs etc!

She picks up every bug going from nursery - I thought it would settle down after a bit but no! We've only just got over the flu too.

Place smells like a hospital!

OP posts:
saintlysecur · 13/12/2004 21:13

Sad poor dd, and you, personally I hate that smell, it reminds me of xmas as a child eugh!

feastofstevenmom · 13/12/2004 21:15

so in fact smells as fresh as bunglie's gerbil cage

i think you deserve some of her vodka after that...

Poor little soul's been really brave, hopefully she'll get a bit of sleep now.
