Crap, crap, crap I say!!

After ordering 100 frozen mice, discovered to my horror that the chest freezer I got from my mum doesn't work!!
So I had to buy one locally for delivery and it cost me £200! I am not happy. I tried Argos but the soonest they could deliver was Friday.

Aye Danno, it is and to top off my bad day Kit (daughter) went nosing around upstairs and discovered Henry the hoggie.
He was in the computer room upstairs, out of the way to surprise her on Sunday, her birthday.
Hubby has the car, a week away on a course so i'm stranded lol

Oh thats a double whammy of bad luck though the surprise would still be a surprise, even more so as it wasn't her birthday yet, lol.

:) Rob, it was his feeding day today, and I wouldn't let her hold him, or feed but as he was eating his mouse I looked up and she had tears of joy in her eyes. That was priceless.

So yes, you are right as she had a huge surprise and now is desperate to hold the little fella :)

Ah, sod's law isn't it? My sympathies re the freezer. I'd hang on to the old one though as repair might be possible, and then you'd have a spare.

And annoying about Katana's discovery - but can you imagine how magical that must have been, just to go pottering about and ...what's this??? Another Snake????? I mean she was expecting a birthday surprise but this must have been a TOTAL surprise. Bless her!

I don't think I have room for the old freezer, so a trip to the skip most likely, besides it'd only be a constant reminder of the £200 I had to pay out..and that stings lol

As for Katana and her foraging..I knew she'd found Henry by the big grin on her face when she came peeling back down :) It was a picture, but alas at the time I was too damn mad to get a pic lol
Still come Sunday she will hold him for the first time, and Saturday collecting Ra..so will be fun :)
