Reasons to go on holiday...

Next to the Cartoon on the fridge door this morning, I found a list of reasons to go on holiday now. I fear Wilson's Holiday Campaign is stepping up a gear.

We've been invited to a Birthday Party tomorrow, so there probably won't be time for a post — but expect photos the following day! 

Unless W is too hung-over, of course…

Ants In Their Pants

One of Wilson's Twitter friends, Moose Allain ( @MooseAllain ) has sent him a cartoon called 'Ants in their Pants' which W thinks is the funniest thing he's ever seen in his life!

He's magneted it on the fridge door and taken everyone to admire it. 

And to have it explained to them, in the case of the younger ones who don't yet understand word-play.

Uckfield Art Trail

Wilson has framed his new photo of Colin in a spare frame which he'd bought 'just in case', and hung it in the living room next to what he calls his 'Picasso' portrait. 

He told me that he's thinking of opening our house for the Uckfield Art Trail next year. 

I told him that I'd think about it. 

We all know what that means, don't we?

Unfortunately his friend Giraffe has received some bad news and W doesn't quite know what to say to ease his distress: http://urls.ht/3eK

Wilson is able to relax at last...

Wilson has been a bit on edge since Colin left, but this morning the postman brought a new photograph of him cuddling Baby William, and a note from Ms Jenny which read:

'Well, Colin had a sleepless night the first night but he seems to have settled in quite well now, and he's made friends with a few of William's teddies!'

As he read it I could see the tension drain out of W's shoulders… 

He's still not managed to get the print heads out of the printer, so I think I'll have a go at that myself over the weekend.

Printer repairs

So, how are you getting on with your Free Business Cards? 
(If you missed them, you can download them from here: http://antwars2.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/free-gift.html)

Feedback from Wilson's friends suggest they're good for:
 • Playing Snap
 • Cake Decorations
 • Using as Pretend (or Fraudulent) Credit Cards
 • Building Houses of Cards
 • Playing Top Trumps
 • Swapping With Your Friends (if you have any friends)

and not so good for
 • Playing Contract Bridge

Wilson hasn't been able to print any himself, due to his breaking my printer by gumming up the printheads with home-made perfume. He's in the kitchen now, trying to repair it. 

There's no shortage of advice, but little sign of success so far.

Nightmares

Wilson slept in my bed again last night following a specially scary Dr Who! I watched this episode with him, and I can sympathise as it was indeed totally terrifying. One of the special effects in particular will probably give me nightmares...

Wilson's Separation Anxiety has eased since his friends Ms Jenny and Mr Simon sent him a photo of Colin the Toy Camel, safe and well, playing with Baby William.

Wilson gazed at it for a long time, before saying, 'I think Colin looks happy with Baby William! Now I wish I'd tried a bit harder to stuff him, but the kapok just kept coming out of his eye-holes.'
