A walk in a bigger park
Mothers' Day
This is not quite the work of a band, and not quite the masterpiece of a choir either. But it’s a real gift from the heart. From all at QuGee, to all of our mothers. Something unique, for a change.
It took us a few days to get acquainted with the song, and we gathered during [...]
First moth of the season
… that flew into QuGee, that is.
A Willow Beauty (Peribatodes rhomboidaria). At least, that’s what I think it is. The brown Ennominae all look so similar!
A walk in the park
It’s been horrid for photography these days, what with layers of cloud cover and a dampish weather to boot. Xi and I decided to put off our outing to Little Venice, and we’ve also postponed the pug-meet shoot.
Yesterday afternoon, the house went to Hyde Park for a little stroll. It’s hard to believe that this [...]
Finally!
The hole in the wall is no more… the contractors are here.
Who's playing the Pied Piper?
There’s no end to them!
Another mouse – this time a bigger one – just slipped into my room! Its movements were quite slow and it isn’t that good at hiding, but it sure is silent when it scuttles about.
Looks like the one Vincent saw a couple of days ago in the common area.
Arrrggh!!
And this… I name… Jeff
Another mouse caught; timestamp 2:49 am. Argh man, I need to sleep. I was about to write another post about an hour and a half ago, until I heard sounds of pattering near my bedpost. I was snuggled up in bed, about to enjoy an earlier night. That pattering was unsettling.
Spent some time after dinner [...]
I love birds, but…
As if having pesky mice around isn’t enough of an annoyance, we now have nesting pigeons in the hole-in-the-wall that coo for all they’re worth in the late afternoons. The corridor echos with the fledglings’ high-pitched cries, which, if anything, can more appropriately be described as squeals.
I took this photo from YGG+YSS’ room, and a [...]
Chug-a-chug!
There’s another mouse! It poked its head through, slipped into my room, looked at me for a good two seconds, and scrambled back out. That was before dinnertime. A small one, a young one I suppose, brave and naive.
It ran across my feet – aye, on top of them!! – when I was at my [...]
Gift-giving
When we were younger, we pounced upon every beautifully-wrapped present with gleaming, hungry eyes. There were special Nintendo games or animal soft toys we might have wanted, but a flowery photo frame or a storybook from a friend would still do nonetheless. It was the exhilaration of receiving and revealing presents that mattered, almost as [...]
