Our Beautiful Bear

It is with the saddest heart I have to write the words we all dread. We have lost our dear, sweet, cuddly Bear.

How could it be just a few days ago when I was spring cleaning the Piggery accompanied by a noisy rumbly thundering noise – it was Bear, zooming back and forth, popcorning with gleeful pleasure. And Saturday morning, while we ate our breakfast in the piggery, there she was bouncing hither and yon, checking each and every tunnel and bed. A cuddle Saturday evening while we watched a DVD, one eye on me and one on Pixie snuggled on Fairy’s daddy’s lap. Sunday morning brought more dashes and a game of ‘follow my leader’, Fairy being the one in the front, Bear bringing up the rear.

At 3pm that afternoon Bear seemed a little sleepy. By 7pm it was obvious Bear was having problems, and by midnight we knew this wasn’t going to end well.

Bear left peacefully, with both of us stroking her, at 4.20am.

Dear Bear, the best pig-sister Fairy could have asked for, and also a very close pig-sister to Pixie – they were the best of friends, always side by side. She spent two Christmases with us, and although her time here was just not long enough it was packed with fun, happiness and love.

They bring us so much joy, and Bear did that in overflowing sacks full, and they give so much love – and then they break your heart.

Our dear and much loved beautiful Bear, we loved you so much x x x x

 

Fairy’s Love-Bug!

Seeing as how I am an internationally renowned superstar and everything, special days are an ideal opportunity for my legions of Fairy Fans to demonstrate their devotion. Doubly appropriate actually as it is Valentine’s Day today! Whooopeeee, and here comes the Postie.

Oh, my goodness gracious, a parcel, for me? How VERY unexpected!

 

Mmmmmmmm – brown wholemeal paper – my favourite.

 

Yes, I know, the packaging is almost as exciting to play with as the pressies.

 

Oh wowweeeee – I shall go to The Ball.

 

Now, where was I? Oh yes, munch munch, nom nom. Nearly through to the next present.

 

But oh-ho! What the heck is this tickly, spider type thing? SPIDER type thing??????? Scuse me, gangway, Fairy going for a quick hide.

 

Fairy – come back here. It’s okay. It’s an extra special Spider of Luuuuuv.

 

I knew that!

Spiders are BRILLIANT – you get eight times the cuddles!!!!!

 

Anyway, moving swiftly on . . . who sent this wonderfully wonderful wonder I wonder?

 

Extra special wowzzas! We love our super duper, fan-pigga-tastic Valenpig card, Auntie Pyretta, and we love YOU, and Vincent and Herman and Oscar and Samso and Elmo and Boris and Gomez and Frederick and all my special piggy pals everywhere xxx

Fairy’s Love Letters!

We all know what today is. No, not Munchday or Chewsday. It’s Valentine’s Day!!!

As well as my usual impressively huge heap of splendid cards from secret admirers from all around the world, pledging their troths or some such, plus enough magnificent red roses to stock several well appointed Florist Shops, these rather fetching block type things have just arrived. How exciting!

 

According to the instruction leaflet, you need to spread the blocks all out everywhere and then arrange them into an appropriate Valentine word. Not a problem for a well educated and exceptionally learned Fairy.

 

Hummmph – not exactly easy is it, I can tell you. Anyway, there seems to be something missing here!

 

Oh yes, easy peasy! That’s it, all done!!

 

Hehehe! Got you that time!!!!

Have a Volley Day x x x
