A Not So Splendid Time

Sad news fellow budgie smugglers. Old age has finally caught up with the eldest budgie Splendid, passing away on Monday. "She was like a mother to us all" wimpers Walrus the Gentle". "My first true love" sobs Pirate. Splendid lived a quiet, peaceful life and enjoyed the morning sun on cold winter days. Layng 8 eggs on 3 diferent occasions, Splendid never became a mother. Try as she might, the eggs just wouldnt hatch. This was the biggest disappointment of her life, often saying she just wanted to be a mother. "She will be missed" the words of Hansbert says it all.

Sweet dreams Splendid, sweet dreams.



And in more sad news for Pooh lovers, the voices of Tigger and Piglet have passed on, within one day of each other. I think the new Winnie the Pooh movie will have to be seen just put of respect.
