Remembering Phineas: One year on
7 September 2017
Posted by on One year ago today, our wonderful Phineas made his way to rainbow bridge.
It is hard to believe that a whole year has passed. There have been many changes since his passing but his home, the Silver Villa, is very much the same. I can still visualise him sitting at each seed pot, chewing the iodine block & sitting on the perch in the doorway. His pink swing is still in use, though not as a bedtime position as he used it.
Always in our thoughts.
Love you my lovely boy.
(I still hope you can forgive me).

Wild Grass 2017 (Part 3 of 3)
5 September 2017
Posted by on As previously reported (click here), we have had an abundance of wild grass deliveries this spring & summer. This is thanks to kind follower rosebudgie & her sharing sausages.
Sadly, at the beginning of July, Marshall left the embrace of his family: brother Ian & his devoted carer, rosebudgie. With enormous strength of character, Ian carried on sending wild grass. Seeing only the name ‘Ian’, for the sender, was a poignant moment.
- 19th July – parcel from Ian
- 19th July – grass from Ian
Since then, however, a fellow budgie has been drafted in to help him, & follower rosebudgie, with their sadness. Eric has given them comfort & cheer & has been gracious enough to help Ian send more wild grass:
- 22nd August – parcel from Ian & Eric
- 22nd August – grass from Ian & Eric
- 30th August – parcel from Ian & Eric
- 30th August – grass from Ian & Eric
- 1st September – parcel from Ian & Eric
- 1st September – grass from Ian & Eric
It is astonishing that through all their recent trauma, follower rosebudgie & Ian have continued to think about others & to share their bountiful wild grass. We thank them unreservedly.
You can see here how much Bezukhov, Dalai, Perry & Lennie enjoy the grass:
This post is dedicated to Marshall.
