The arrival of the Daewoos


"I do not want any more animals now that the guinea pigs have gone."
I distinctly remember saying those very words.
I did not imagine them.
So, what happens last week?

The arrival of four new females in the house.

(This is something I dont object to having lived with testosterone overload for many years you understand.)
However, the aforementioned females are Degus, little creatures with squirrel faces and grey ratty bodies.
That may sound unappealing to some but they really are very sweeT.

Just, NOT MORE ANIMALS THAT WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME MY PROBLEM!!

It was the eldest, 25 years old, who came home with them.
"Its ok mum, my girlfriend and I will take care of them."
His girlfriend and he are going to Egypt, together, in a few weeks time.

"Taking them with you are you?!" I asked, in exasperation.
