catching up
Jun. 12th, 2013 09:30 amIt's been a week of intensive marking overlapping with a long weekend of pet wrangling. Before I'd even finished the Unreal University stuff, Humbug had gone missing and a lot of time got poured into searching for any trace of him until we found him safe and well on Saturday. He's been unusually quiet and indoorsy since then - clearly spending 3 nights in the great Outdoors was rather more than he really wanted. He's just getting back to normal now, which means he probably won't come in when we call him tonight...
The on Sunday we took Speedy to the next lucky volunteer to offer him a home. He's now in Whittlesford in a garden that seems perfect for him. There are shrubs to wander amongst, but nothing too fragile, a good solid wall and fence, and no gate. The people are lovely and really keen to have him. There's even another tortoise, called Spiky, who lives down the road. They're thinking of arranging a play date :) Fingers crossed, this is the home that's going to work out for him.
Now I'm catching up on the other stuff like baking biscotti, mopping the kitchen floor and going to the Pompeii exhibition at the British Museum with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Both cats just came in and it's not even raining yet. For Leicester this is normal behaviour. Hum does NOT come in during the day unless the weather forces him in--except that he does since his Big Adventure. They also seem to be spending more time together. It's as if Hum doesn't want to be on his own :)
