It's alright, AuntieM Smile

I have heard before that dolphins are vicious buggers, I think it's the 'smiley face' pictures we are used to seeing, that misleads people.

Think happy thoughts about fluffy ducklings. Don't worry about what they might grow up into. No duckling would have dark thoughts.

I love Ross. He's the BEST dagnamit.

I love my kittens more and I confirm, with appropriate pomp, that kittens fur is silky.

reelingintheyears · 11/08/2011 15:24

Sorry..Blush

AMumInScotland started it.

AuntieMonica · 11/08/2011 15:24

and the fact they were used by navies to plant bombs on boats?

see, they are meant to be intelligent but they are hitmen also! Shock

limitedperiodonly · 11/08/2011 15:24

AuntieMonica You mean there's a cetacean version of Richard Littlejohn spouting about about publicly-funded, gay-only mackerel-hunting frenzies held in parts of oceans owned by all of us, not just the rubbery woofters with sinister smiles, yet cordoned off with nylon ropes.

Oooh, I said spout and rubber and ropes. Oooh, I just said quiver.

mrsdonkeybucket · 11/08/2011 15:25

Agree about Ross being creepy and controlling.

It's because he was the favoured child, you know. [winks]

ClaireDeLoon · 11/08/2011 15:25

Maybe we should stick to land mammals? Thus avoiding the tricky question of rapist ducks and homophobic dolphins?

And I'm still not convinced that baby baa lambs are wiry. Just look at the pic that Abs posted, does that look wiry to you?

Ooh spooky Claire - "We need pinot to come post pics of her kittens to restore balance" - and as if by magic I appear!

I NEED A FLYING CARPET.

AbsDuCroissant · 11/08/2011 15:28

Yay! Pinot's here!

very Envy of you getting to stroke a kitten as part of the experiment.

farewellfigure · 11/08/2011 15:29

Chickens are soft, but their beaks aren't.

Oh sorry, that's not a mammal. Hmm.

AMumInScotland · 11/08/2011 15:29

Squeee

AuntieMonica · 11/08/2011 15:30

Timpson · 11/08/2011 15:30

Is it time to bring out the finger monkey yet?

AMumInScotland · 11/08/2011 15:30

link fail Grin

mrsdonkeybucket · 11/08/2011 15:30

Claire

Lambs feel like carpet. Or badly matted hair. They are not fluffy. Smile

Abs Go look at my pics, you can 'feel' the fluffiness through the images !

limitedperiodonly · 11/08/2011 15:31

Camels appear to have velvety noses but I don't know for sure because their teeth put me off. And they spit. And they all have syphilis, according to DH.

A keeper at the London Zoo camel house once gave me a bag of camel hair on a school trip. My mum was so pleased when I got it home and opened it.

ClaireDeLoon · 11/08/2011 15:31

Finger monkey saves the day!

ClaireDeLoon · 11/08/2011 15:33

Pinot have you been away? I could have kittensat! I would have returned them honest. Really.

AbsDuCroissant · 11/08/2011 15:33

Yay finger monkey!

True mrsdonkey. There's fluffiness all over the place.

Fooffy · 11/08/2011 15:34

Bunnies are scratchy and scrabbly.
Ducks are evil.
Dolphins are the Master race.

rays have just about the cutest faces ever so cute

reelingintheyears · 11/08/2011 15:34

Finger monkey sounds rude.

Pin0t · 11/08/2011 15:35

I would swap my HUSBAND for a finger monkey and want one for Christmas. Santa

'Ello Abs my darlin

I have sat on a camel and they SMELL. Of weird, wet stuff. And the bloke who helped me up squeezed my bum, but thats another story.

I apologise for all the capitals, I appear to be all LOUD now I'm home (jollies were lush thanks AuntieM - I drank Sud de France dry)
