Pizza For My Birthday!

Well, what a fun day out I've had with Mrs L today. Her trademark humor really lightened up the place as we went on our way to the city, and we talked for ages about her trip to Australia and her feeding the kangaroos. Unluckily, she didn't see any Bluey - bummer.

But anyway, when we got to Starbucks I had a brownie with hot chocolate on the side, and when Mrs L got into Smyths - OH MY GOD! She told me they have the most awesome Sylvanian Families section ever, with all the babies, adults, children and playsets. I'm going to collect them all from now on! The highlight is going to PriMark and buying a Stitch jumper seeing how my friend Disney M sported one when she was at home in Key housing. You know her, the one with the Mickey & Friends T-shirt, the rainbow hair, the Winnie The Pooh T-shirt, the Minnie Mouse doll and her loyal Care Bear. I was so delighted when I bought that sweatshirt, I'm going to be part of all the cool kids these days who love Stitch as much as they love Simba!

While driving through Inverness we spotted lots of strange sights - but no street theatre monsters like in the pictures I saw online and the short Mum showed me two days ago. I saw balloons, graffiti, cyclists and a truck displaying a video as part of some sort of roadshow. Then we went to Domino's and had the usual fayre. All was smooth sailing as I ate my pizza and cookies and drank my Coke...

...until Mrs L turned the radio on. DUN-DUN-DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNN!!

Furaha The Fairy & Orko The Elf Wizard - Part 1

Deep within the Valley Of Seasons, there exists the Spring Meadows. Here, Spring exists every time, and is brought into the world every year by a community of elves and fairies, who work together to give the world nature as we know it. This is the story about a toddler fairy and her big elf brother, who are on a quest to discover the valley for the first time.


Up in a family tree, where most families of elves and fairies live, there lived Furaha, who was only 2, and was a beautiful fairy with pink wings and magical powers. Orko had magical powers too, and still, he was a wonderful big elf brother. There they are in the treetops, asleep in their bed of moss, underneath their flower petal duvet. Furaha is the first to wake up. She begins to crawl all over Orko, encouraging him to wake up from the looks of the morning sun rising in the dainty sky. He just turns over and goes back to sleep. This doesn’t work, so Furaha tickles him with her wings, causing him to wake up. At once, their parents Kiburi the elf and Ua the fairy enter, delighted to see their little ones are awake.


“Good morning, you two.” says Ua. “Today’s the day you’re off exploring the Valley Of Seasons.” “It’ll be a great voyage, I just know it!” cries Orko. “Now remember, you promised to look after Furaha while she’s on the trip with you. Also remember that she is starting to use her magical powers.” “Yes, mother,” obeyed Orko, and they went downstairs to have a nice breakfast of honey on bread and hot chocolate, served in petal tea cups and plates.
