The Three Musketeers

Wow, thats a great picture of Bandy and Houdini! They look so comfortable.

I hope your greens last and are able to grow well, even with bunnies nibbling on them! They look nice in the pot though.

Boys are doing great and my plants are a big success so I´ll probably buy more on Tuesday.

Bought some lovely old Spanish cheese today and it absolutely fabulous. That´s what you get when the bar you go to for coffee has a cheese stall right next to it. I love how she always has some of the cheese to taste, I could stand there and eat it all but that would be rude wouldn´t it :spintongue

I went to the big supermarket near Malaga yesterday and couldn´t resist looking in the pet shop. There was a gorgeous little brown bunny all on its own and I was so tempted to get it but know that I don´t have the room and I don´t think I´d be able to do a quartet. I was still thinking about it this morning. Must remember not to go down there again for a while.

They also had a really nice cage but will have to think about it as it didn´t have bars around the side or back and Houdini loves to look out at everything so don´t think he´d like it. Will have to keep looking. I really need another xpen now to start preparing for my little trip to England. I need to expand their area so that they don´t need to be let out when I´m away.

I was just looking through some old stuff and found this adorable video of two little baby buns cuddling and grooming....I tell you they are just so gorgeous.

Sounds like you have been busy but things have been going well. I can't wait to hear of your adventures with Wendell. I want to sign up to have him visit but am so afraid he'll show up when things are crazy with school or that and we won't get a chance to take him out.

I would love to grow some herbs inside but I keep putting it off. It depresses me when plants die inside. I have so much more luck growing outside.

Denise, I´m a bit afraid Wendell might not arrive. Doing everything I can to find him but it´s been so long since Becs sent him from Australia and I was so excited about him coming.

Love the herbs outside and they seem to be doing well. That is something for me as I definitely do not have green fingers. I´m going to try with a few more as the boys love nibbling on them when they´re outside and it´s much cheaper than buying cut.

Just finished cleaning their cages and having a little rest and a cup of tea, how English is that lol. Now I have to start on the serious stuff in the rest of the house....kitchen and then bathroom.

Happy Sunday to ya all :big wink:

I enjoy a cup of tea after I do stuff too. Do you drink your tea with anything, like milk or sugar or honey? I'm a plain tea drinker, just the way it is. Sometimes if I'm feeling feisty, I'll throw a lemon slice and a mint sprig in there. Sometimes, if I have it on hand, I like a little honey too. But just like a little dollop, so its not too sweet.

I'm so jealous of your cheeses! I really hope that one day I make it to Spain, to eat the cheeses. I'm still trying to talk my husband into it. LOL

I can't ever get herbs to grow! Inside or outside. I planted a window box of herbs and the only thing that grew was the greek basil. haha. I should feed it to Ellie before it gets cold and it dies. I hope your herbs do well. The boys probably help it by eating it a little bit at a time.

Chris...I saw that on Wendell's blog. It is a shame. I used to work at the post office but not for it. There were several times I found letters that had fallen and slid under tables that no one had noticed but never a package.

I used to drink tea instead of coffee. Coffee upsets my stomach but then I discovered creamer and with the flavored ones I can now drink coffee again. Now and then I make a cup though. Hubby likes it as well.

I love my tea, I drink Earl Grey with milk and sugar. I´m trying to change to sweetener at the moment, there´s a new one which has stevia which is a natural plant but I´m still finding it hard, it just doesn´t taste like sugar. I can use it in my coffee, the taste of it is masked more. I like my coffee out and drink tea at home.

Just been out and have noticed that one of the basil plants is missing all the leaves so it´s been popular. There´s still another there for them to munch on. I was watching them this afternoon relaxing indoors and Houdini and Snowy were snuggled up. It makes me feels so good that they´re happy together again.

I went to the Post office yesterday but the sorting office isn´t open on Saturday so I was going to go again tomorrow but I´ve just realised it´s a local holiday so it will have to be Tuesday. I am hoping that he´s just misplaced and not lost :nerves1

Just love this app..just sitting in town having a coffee and catching up on here...photo I took yesterday, they were out when I was cleaning

It truly is awesome. I love it.
Aww it's like "count the bunnies" ha! What's the temps like over there?

Cute pic Chris! The boys certainly seem to be enjoying themselves!

Katie, still quite hot, probably around 28-30ºC still although a bit cooler at night now. Haha, they do love spending time together, it´s great being able to let them all out at once. I´m sure Buster and Feebs will be back to normal quite soon.

Elise, they love it out there, usually go out when it gets darker but love sitting in the doorway as well catching the bit of breeze, One of the best things I´ve done and will be able to keep them out there until the rains come.

Aww, its why me and the wife so badly wanted to buy a house so our buns can get some out time. We'll probably move eventually to a place with a balfony for the same reason...

Mine are loving it and I love that they're getting some fresh air and hearing all those outdoor noises...hope I can use it most of the year.

I worry about taking the buns outside due to parasites and pests such as fleas but you have given me an idea for the future. Right now we have a very small front porch. Eventually we want to build a larger one and I will definitely keep in mind bunny proofing it so they can go out there to enjoy the fresh air and it's the only area with trees so it's shady.

Denise, I worry about the same thing which is why I don´t take them into the gardens but having that space for them now is great cos they still get the feel of being outside with none of the threats. It took a bit of proofing but was still well worth it for just seeing them out there.

Well I´m really getting into these plants, bought some more today and another planter and they´re loving them. I bought a smaller basil plant and then worried whether it was edible or not. I´ve been googling for a couple of hours and I´m certain it´s OK. The lady as the stall said it´s the one they use to keep mosquitos away but it does smell quite like the normal basil plants I get so it´s out there with a bigger basil plant and some thyme. I bought a larger rosemary plant to put at the other end in front of the gate to stop them eating it. I´ve also replanted the other two basil plants they´d eaten so I´m hoping they´ll flower again.

I was laughing today as I bought some flat shoes during the week and decided to wear them today as it looked as though it might rain and I hate wearing sandals in the rain as it ruins them. I ended up having to go home to change them as the right one was rubbing my heel so put on a pair of sandals I haven´t worn all summer. I then went to the supermarket to get some stuff and my shoe felt weird when I was walking. When I looked down, the shoe had literally disintegrated and I had to hobble round the supermarket and to the car. I laughed when I got home as half of the sole of the shoe was on the floor.

By the way for all you Downton Abbey fans, I can´t wait for the 22nd September when the new series starts. They´ve been putting trailers on for a couple of days now and it´s looking really good.

Still looking for an xpen for when I go away. I found one on ebay exactly the same as the one I already have and it was quite cheap but it´s in Germany and the postage costs the same as the xpen so I´ll probably try and find something closer to home. They do have one in the pet shop I bought one of the cages from. It´s really nice, much sturdier than the one I have and quite a bit taller but it´s a bit more expensive than I was wanting to pay...77 Euros but if I don´t find anything else I may get it if I´m stuck. I´m still a bit nervous about leaving them but I´m sure they´ll be OK and I´ll make sure that I leave really good instructions for my sitter.

LOL I had to laugh at your shoe story! I could see that happening to me. Hahaha.

I hope you find your xpen for cheap. I think they're about the same amount of money there that they are here.

I'm glad you're getting into your plants. I need to go out and take care of my plants! All my beds are over taken with weeds right now, and it looks horrible. I'll get to it soon enough, the weather started to cool down here. Well, maybe its not as much cooler, as the humidity is down to nothing!

Yes, it was definitely a bad shoe day lol but I did laugh at the amount of my shoe left in the car.

Got my friend looking for an xpen for me as well, she says that there´s a pet shop near her which might stock them...fingers crossed.

Ha! The shoe story is funny. Not that I'm happy your shoe fell apart or anything but little problems like that you're better off laughing at than crying over.

I have hear to rub yourself with basil to keep mosquitos away but have never heard of using a particular type.

Good luck finding an Xpen. It's ridiculous at times what they charge for some things just because it is for a pet.
