Dear Internet, we are very pleased to announce the “arrival” of AlaBot, the best (and hardest) secret I have kept (not from Ala, obviously)..

We have never been happier, more excited or more nervous!

Here’s a video I secretly recorded, because for some bonkers reason photography and videoing were strictly prohibited..

And some photos!

It’s a wonderful life! <3

Wowzers trousers, it’s been so long since I posted here I forgot how to login, and had about 100 plugins (including WordPress itself) to update! That meant that to make most of the plugins that I’d custom CSS’d function correctly, I was forced (due to wanting to post the entry tonight) to revert to an old and very basic theme, then fiddle frantically to just have the majority of them work!

Anyway, this entry might be rather bandwidth intensive – You have been warned!!

So, what have we been up to.. Given that the last time you saw us, we were see-sawing on the Saw ride at Thorpe Park!

Let’s start with this week – Unfortunately there’s been a disaster in the land of Roo, why you ask?

Well, Ala (her, LovelyBum, Lala, the missus et cetera) has gone to Poland for a couple of weeks and left me to fend for myself in the scary old London. I’m doing my best to feed myself, wash myself, style myself and love myself (well, not that) but in reality I’m useless without her, and not just because she feeds me, styles me and loves me. For a million other reasons that an hour or two a night on Skype and numerous Whatsapp messages/texts/emails just doesn’t help with.

Oh well, I’ll just have to muddle through as best as I can until we spend an immeasurable amount of days (which is a fancy way of saying I don’t remember how many days we’re going for) visiting the family in Meols towards the end of the month (which is a not so fancy way of saying I don’t remember when we’re going). See, I muddle!

Wonky is helping a little bit though, but we still miss Fanny (you can see our beasties here) and I’ve posted some new photos of Wonky in amongst the mass of photos towards the bottom (heh, bottom) of this entry!

As well as that the missus and I are looking for our first proper house together with a little help from First Steps, London (which I’m going to plough through tonight), we outgrew our current place of residence months if not years ago!

Wish us luck, or failing that just give us a mansion in Somerset and we’ll be happy!

Oh, I recorded chapter one of Roald Dahl’s The Twits for Ala a couple of days ago – More to follow I promise honey!

There’s also this!

And finally (for videos, anyway) there’s this little gem –

And here’s some choice photos!

And finally two of my favourite photos of all time!

That’s all for now, folks!

Miss you Ala <3!

Life is a little tumultuous at the moment, so I have tried really hard not to bother you with it..

That aside, we proudly announce the arrival of Wonky Ploppers Tnetennba III!

We (well, I) have decided to call her Wonky Ploppers Tnetennba III.

Oh, and I bought a MacBook Pro for £100, it’s lovely, they’re both lovely.

I can’t even remember how to use WordPress, and the go left button on my PC’s keyboard ain’t working.

Fuck this shit. At least I still remember HTML so I can make text bold.

On a very unhappy note, our little Fanny died a few days ago, she had multiple lumps and after much soul searching and ups and downs we decided to take her in for surgery, unfortunately she didn’t make it.

Ala and I took her to a park nearby (we had a nice picnic there a few months back, just the three of us), this time though we had to jump over a rather large gate because it was locked for the evening – It was our last threesome adventure together, awww. We buried her there..

Here are some lovely photos of her (I’ve got over 180 of those, and probably 30 videos)..

And more.. Can you spot her in the last one?

Here she is sleeping, don’t click if you don’t want to see her, “sleeping”.

We love you Fanny, we miss you Fanny, you’re awesome, Fanny.

Oh man, I’m in tears now. This wasn’t a good idea.

At least we’ve have all those photos and videos and memories to smile at – And our thoroughly chewed “Megatron” – She really loved chewing up technology, I can’t count the amount of cables of ours she chewed through, but you know what – I’d give anything for her to destroy my stuff one last time..
