It’s
all been happening.
It’s all been happening here, during
the last few weeks. Himself had a friend over from the States so we had two
great human beings lumbering about the place. At least she didn’t call us rude
names and pick us up and use us as dummy saxophones.
We have had a new lighting system put
in, in the shape of some rocks with little lights in them that give the
appearance of footlights on a stage. Well, that seems very appropriate for
there are some girls in this pen, who shall remain nameless, who are a bunch of
screaming drama queens. Others just use the lights as bum warmers, blocking out
the light for the rest of us!
There is also a little pagoda
installed at one end, around which we all like to huddle. It’s kind of cosy and
matey and we all sit around there putting the world to rights in the evenings.
Talking of huddling, well we have
another ten of us to huddle with, a mixture of Peruvians, and coronets. We are
pleased to report that none of them have displayed and fancy airs and graces so
we have accepted them and they have all settled in very well. We’re like that,
and himself always says, wryly, ‘Look at you, behaving like animals’ when we
display this kind of behaviour towards our sister pigs. Well, we wouldn’t dream
of behaving as badly as many human animals do!
Himself has finished one book and has
begun work on another. We intend to renegotiate our terms on this one because
there are to be many photos of us in it. This means he needs compliant models,
if he doesn’t up our fees all he will get is piggy bums as we walk off the set
each time he tries to get a shot. Alternatively, we could just pull horrible
faces are drop pellets all over the set. Well, I ask you, is it right that we
get such a lousy percentage!!!!!
