Time for a post.

 Well, the exciting news is that my new keyboard lamp arrived.

Hang on! I just checked out The Curmudgeon and he has already done a post on one of these things!

SHIT!

Come on! I'm just havin' a laugh!

I mean, who would write such a silly pointless weirdly boring post?

Oh, that's right...

The Curmudgeon did.

If he is serious, this really opens the gates for all weirdo topics. I'll have a go.

Title: My Pig.

I was very excited today to hear a truck back up our drive. Our pig had finally arrived!

He's a standard looking pig and I've been busy building a pen for him, but we hope that he will spend most of his time inside the house. We've checked and he does fit into both Shelley's and my cars. That means that we can take him for rides. Some of the neighbours looked a bit concerned when they saw we had a pig. Well, a lot of them have big dogs that they seldom walk. They'll be jealous when they see how much we intend to take our pig out.

I've got a lead for him, just in case he tries to chase cats or ducks. We haven't named him yet, but we are referring to him as 'Pig'. The name is starting to stick. Well, after all, he IS a pig. Since he is the only pig in the neighbourhood, if I call out, "Pig! Here Pig." it is very unlikely that other pigs will come running. It pays to think ahead when you have a pig. 

At present I'm teaching him to roll in the mud. This is how pigs clean themselves. I had to give him a few demonstrations, but he seems to be getting the idea. Boy, we seem to have more washing to do since getting this pig. Well, I refuse to roll around naked outside.

Pigs are intelligent animals and make good pets. We don't intend to eventually eat ours because we are vegetarians.

Ciao tutti.
