We’ve lost one of the hairier members of our family. After taking Keira to school yesterday, Carole found Ginger the guinea pig lying dead among the grass she had previously so happily danced around in and eaten (in abundance). Selfishly – these means even more lawn mowing for me, as Ginger was quite the grass cutter in her prime.
At the time, Keira was at school, blissfully unaware of the loss of her pet. On hearing the news she is understandably very upset, and though I don’t much care for pets, no Dad likes to see his daughter cry. So – no blog post today, just a picture of Keira’s late friend.

I can confirm that Guinea Pigs are absolutely tipperty top lawn mowers, I miss our childrens late pets, beat any hover mover any day! Condolences to Keira.

Cheers Steve – Keira is pretty down in the dumps today and will be pleased to know you’ve been in touch.
Rest in Peace and Joy Ginger. May you enjoy pastures new in Guinea Pig heaven.
I’m sure she will – I’ll pass your note to K thanks Peter.
