Apologies

To all those waiting to hear from me at the moment. It has been one of those weeks.

Skip is still bunged up, one week on. I'm so worried about him and he's getting very fed up with my efforts to debung him and is trying to bite me. I can't begin to describe how much I hate this, I feel so useless and so scared :(

Added to that we've had four losses this week. Raini degu, who was expected really, Mags and Silly degus who just went totally out of the blue, and Tara the roborovski hamster. Dear Tara was more than two and a half years old and the last of my own robos. She had been slowing down and getting rather crotchety for a while and I was expecting to have to make a decision about her soon. But she went by herself last night. Play nicely with your sisters at the bridge darling.

Please keep Skip in your thoughts. If we don't solve this soon then I think it might be time to call it a day :(
