Maybe I should have these guys over to teach our cats how to use their cat door!

I just stumbled upon the video of this bird.  It almost makes me want one! – almost. How friggin cute!!

Them meaning, the Dutchies.   I know, I know… I didn’t think it would ever happened either and yes, I did check to see if monkeys are flying out of my arse.   I can’t help it though, even without trying I’m finding things I really love about this place. One of the most recent things is Marco Borsato.  I’m not sure …

Over the past few years I’ve really grown to appreciate the city I live in.   I think I’m becoming a hardcore Rotterdammer at heart.   I can understand why tourists prefer Amsterdam, as it still has more of that historical Dutch look but Rotterdam has some of that too, but with something really cool and modern mixed in.

This morning Xander sent me a link to a funny video on YouTube. I love this for so may reasons… Firstly, it’s got the big dude from Shaun of the Dead, which is such a great movie.

I love this video!  I can’t get enough of it.  I just sit slackjawed watching it and wanting a hippo of my very own! haha My little zoo pales in comparison to this!
