Whits all dis den.....

Peerie O has been experiencing strange sensations (nothing to do with Muckle or Fladda) I may add…..On Friday it started….there was a strangely familiar light which PO had a recollection of but it took till dinnertime to place what it was. The SUN, big whoop. There was also warmth for the first time since last August. PO enjoyed this enormously, but Muckle cast PO into shadow at tea time (selfish boulder!!) Fladda was even worse off.

Then an airbourne message from our pal Eyafjatlajukel has grounded the flights again. Some fine old academic was optimistic that this could go on for another 20 years…by which time of course the cost of grounding the flights will have rendered it completely safe to fly though an erupting volcano, in fact it may cost more to fly through a volcanic dust cloud….an added extra, they could argue.

I digress. Anyhoo hoping this dust is not going to affect POs sun tan. Oh yes tirricks. Dey are back! Been for a couple of weeks now. PO likes the tirricks but do dey hae ta mak sae muckle noise. Less time screechin and mair time lookin for fish wid probably do da numbers a lot aa good!! PO often looks an winders why day budder? I mean tae flee tae Shetland ta lay your egg when you pass ower some cracking beaches in Africa????I don’t know.

Anidder observation that PO has made, and if your are of a prudish nature stop reading now……….., ok PO will carry on now. PO had the misfortune to witness two ducks undertaking procreation. May PO say it was a bit brutal…The man duck leapt on da height o Jemima (Puddleduck) and grabbed her in da cuff o da neck a packed her head under da water….Jeez, it widda been ee thing if she was bein akward aboot da whole thing, but she hed a kind o resigned look on her face an just let him get on wi hit. Dan off he hopped an on ta da nixt een. If looks could kill…he widda been floatin belly up. Natures a cruel place PO can tell you….especially if you are a she duck.

Peerie O's take on da Volcano

Gadzooks, Muckle and Flad. What is this??? Here was me thinking that MO had beans and cabbage for tea last night..but no it’s far more serious. I do hope that this ash does not start to fall down, else what little girss I have on my head will be smothered ….this does fear not concern Flad though. On the other hand, you may recall tha PO had a premonition on 16 March, only I got the glacier wrong. I said Cousin Vatnajokell however it was old Cousin Gigjokell. Didn’t really know him that well, a bit strange…quiet like. No wonder I suppose, sitting on a volcano for all this time. Anyhoo, what if theres more??? This sea level is getting a bit of a concern…Muckle, could you throw Flad a line to attach to. Flad you might want to start brushing up on your submarine lingo.

FYI MO and Flad, this does not mean you can start consuming beans and cabbage.

Stupid volcano, I liked it this mornin, cool volcanic action nearby, stinkin up the place. But not now. We can fly to the moon but we still can't stop volcanic ash from messin up air-plane engines. Im ashamed to be human. What engineers been doin all these years, sittin about baskin in the glory of some crappy bridges they've designed. We dont need bridges, we need planes darn it!
