Visiting Relatives

We're back, although you probably didn't know we were away, apart from the ever so slightly less regular posts. We have just spent the week in the Republic of Ireland, just as they were having their General election, so lots of people handing out leaflets (well three) and loads of posters on streetlights and telephone poles. 

But you guys aren't interested in Irish politics (or are you? let me know), so I will stick to the reptilian news. Smudge had to stay with grandma for the week, and I believe it was the first time Smudge and Flick were in the same room.

Smudge seemed fine when we got back, had apparently been eating every couple of days and had been pretty active, BIL let her loose in their conservatory after making sure it was lizard escape-proof, and she ran around quite happily.

BIL also mentioned that Flick could smell Smudge on his hands after handling her, but as he was under strict instructions to act as chaperone,  no canoodling or any other funny business took place (according to him anyway, I guess if Smudge starts requesting bacon flavoured icecream or huge quanties of chocolate we will know he failed in his task). 

 As it has been such a long time since I have given you any posts, pictures or videos, the next post after this one will be a hunting, catching and eating video right after this one.
