Squirrel Monkeys
So a pair of size 10 wellies have been procured at the house in Cromer which means I can now head to Monkey Island with impunity. Unfortunately due to me needing to feed my sugar habit, breakfast, talking with my Mother and other related and unlrelated reasons I didn’t get to start taking photo’s until 3 whereupon it decided that being a nice sunny day was no longer fun and it should instead just piss it down. So there’s me, on an island in the middle of a lake cowering under a tree trying to keep dry while being hassled by squirrel monkeys for the grapes and dates I had in my pocket. Then one of the monkeys decided that it was all very well and good getting the single date or grape from my hand as I fed them (hand feeding squirrel monkeys is just so cool 
), but if they got the bag with all the goodies in it then they could have as many as they liked. Cue one fight for the bag which they damn near won Still, not as bad a the trainee keeper who was trying to claim that rhea were smarter than they looked as he nearly got outsmarted by one. Trust me, rhea are as stupid as they look and getting outsmarted by one is the equivlent of being outsmarted by a wet paper bag 
Photo’s will be forthcoming later, in the mean time I’m trying to decide if the squirrel monkey’s are cuter than the marmies. It’s a close call
Did you not have some form of hood to protect you from the precipitation, and a zip to protect you from ravaging monkeys? Also, I think there is a certain point where having too many smileys is boradly the equivalent of ??!!?!?!!!!
Squirrel monkeys are known to eat fingers.
I do agree with the above commentator on the number of smileys. Is there a code of acceptable practice on their use?
Coati’s are better……………
The were but four smileys and the squirrel monkeys made me happy. I tend not to wear my hood as I don’t like looking like a thug and the tree was providing cover. Fingers only get bitten if you put them in the way… and if coati’s are so cute how come I walked straight passed them and headed to the monkeys?
Cos you’re evil
It wasnt the absolute number of smileys which worried me, more the density of them in the final paragraph. It’s rather perturbing.
Dont take this the wrong way Dom, but I suspect you look like a thug even without the hood. Except at a distance from behind, when you look like a girl.
And as much as it pains me to agree with Dom, I fear the Squirrel monkey’s are cuter.
Oh no no no he’s managed to suck you in…..
I couldn’t get off their island tonight cos one wouldnt get off my head
there was no more than one smiley per sentence, WP just seems to swallow the punctuation after them so it looks like there are many per sentence.
I am evil. Jas will vouch for me. No one ever believes me.
Not so much sucked in as just normal.
