It got a bit exciting at BBHQ the other day. Catdad was trimming the top out of the tree next to the new deck, and oh fluff, there was a hole in the lower part of the trunk about 2 feet off the ground - he knew about it but not how bad it was. Anyhoo, long story short, the fluffing thing collapsed and fell over. We are so blessed it didn't come down in any high winds and damage nextdoors property.
Luckily, no damage was caused other than a few squashed plants and a couple of broken pots, and Catdad is fine. He was taken by surprise to say the least, at the turn of events, but he has the reflexes of a snow leopard and leapt out of the way.
We are sad, as Nanny originally grew the tree from a cutting. So now, instead of having a nicely trimmed tree and the new deck at the side and back, we've got an empty space. The P.A. is rather upset, as her original plans have literally fallen into the mud, so we have no idea what to do with the area now... but the thinking caps are on.
Oh, and if mew remember in last week's post about the plant dilemma, good news, after the P.A. sent several more emails with pics, a refund is on the way. And if mew're curious about the 5th box of missing plants, yep, it's still missing, and the carrier doesn't know what happened to it other than it got lost!!!
Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.
First up in the news this week
Smooch's Visit To The Tyre Shop
Smooch was a bit desperate the other day; if mew hadn't heard, The Mewton-Clawson Annual Car Rally is on in a few weeks.
Anyhoo, he went to check on his pride and joy, The Red Peril, as he calls it, only to discover his tyres were in shocking shape due to some rather excessive burnouts on the Main Street by Fudge - and no, Smooch doesn't know that fact yet! Oh dear!
Luckily, just down the road in Gribbers-Puddling, one of our pals, aka Big Fluff, has a tyre shop. So Smooch hurtled off down there to organise a couple of sets, as he's determined to beat the team from the Fuskerton Projects this year. So stay tuned for more information about the rally soon.
Next up in the news
Fudge and Melvyn Witnessing Smooch's Hasty Departure
Unbeknown to Smooch, Fudge and Melvyn witnessed his hasty departure from BBHQ.
And Fudge is praying to Cod that Smooch doesn't find out about his late-night joyriding activities around the village.
Jumpin' juniper berries, it's all hotting up, and if that video footage isn't wiped, Fudge will be in fluffing hot water.

Which one should he model next?
Don't be so fluffin' noticeable, Smooch!
ReplyDeleteStealth is good too.
Melvyn looks so cute, and it's too bad about that tree; will you try to grow a cutting?
I'm glad to hear Catdad suffered no injuries and hope the refund comes quickly on those plants.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like there is adventure and intrigue around every corner at your place. First Melvyn and Fudge getting into trouble and having to stay in, now this with the tyres, it just doesn't stop.
Although whatever Melvyn did, it certainly didn't hurt his modeling!
