Bibi
came home to stay with me this weekend, Davy had told her all about Eva and she
was really excited about meeting her.
Eva was also pleased to meet Bibi, she loves making new friends. I did have to tell Eva that Bibi lives at IST with the Year 4 children, just in case she decided that she wanted to keep her! She already has a duck, hedgehog, and a sheep with angel wings which all have squeaky bellies, but she does not have a monkey.
They
really enjoyed snuggling up in front of the fire together on Friday night.
We
had a dinner party on Saturday night. Bibi decided that she wanted to share my vegetarian
meal. Monkeys do generally have a diet of fruit and they love insects! But there
were no insects being served at our dinner party, so Bibi shared my cheese
stuffed polenta and loved it. The Year 4 monkeys do love chocolate though!
Later
on we went into the games room to play pool. Bibi
had never played pool so she had a lot of fun learning and joining in.
On
Sunday we decided to take Bibi to our local pig farm, it’s one of Eva’s favourite
places to walk. Eva’s parents were working farm dogs from
the Pyrénéés-Atlantiques; they rounded up cattle (Bovine). She was born in a
muddy barn, so she feels very at home outside in the fields and couldn’t wait
to show Bibi the pigs.
Eva loves getting really muddy.
I think Bibi likes the pigs!
Bibi
is now tucked up in bed fast asleep, it was a long sunday walk and a late night on
Saturday! So she needs her beauty sleep. She’s looking forward to getting back
to school tomorrow to tell the other monkeys all about her week end.
Bonne
nuit Bibi.
How was Bibi at pool? Did he manage to pocket any balls?

DeleteIt was nice that you introduced Eva to us.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome Mimi, it makes me happy that you like reading about her.
DeleteBibi had a really good weekend with you. Mrs Whittaker I never knew that Eva was born at the farm.
ReplyDeleteEva loves making monkey frendship.
Yes Eva is a real French farm dog, her grandparents were prize winning cattle herders! Eva does try to herd birds.
ReplyDeleteYou had a great weekend with Bibi. Did she make some pig friends?
DeleteI really do love farm dogs! :-)
Yes Pablo, Bibi made pig friends. Three of the pigs had escaped from the field (they always do that!) They came really close to us. They are very curious animals and if you keep still, as Bibi, Eva and I did, then they will come close, raising their piggy snouts and sniffing the air!
DeleteWOW I never new that Bibi played pool before. (even though its mine).
ReplyDeleteShe is very good at pool indeed.
DeleteYou have a monkey with many talents Claudia ;)
DeleteBibi must had a great vacation with your dog,pig and you
