Is this Christmas?

" Hey Ambrose, there is a great big tree in the conservatory. It is covered with sparkly things and there are two toy gingerbread piggies hanging on it." says Oscar.

"Is this something to do with Christmas? I do not understand humans."

Christmas is Coming!

 "Christmas is coming and the pigs are getting fat...tra la."

Ambrose: Who are you calling fat?

Oscar: That wasn't me! Slave is singing to the girls next door. She is cleaning out their pen.

Ambrose: I like a nice fat sow, me.

Oscar: They are certainly very plumptious. Is that a word? 

 Caoimhe: Plumptious? Sounds like a compliment to me.

Orla: Me too!

Ambrose: Who is Christmas and why is he coming?

Oscar: I have no idea. Let us ask Mama Bonbon. She is old and wise and is sure to know.

Mama Bonbon: Christmas boys? Of course. You were only tiny piglets last Christmas and you did not live here then. I don't know where you were but you may not remember Christmas. It is a wonderful holiday and you will find out all about it in three days time! Most of all, you have to be good piggies and then you will see what happens.

Oscar and Ambrose:This sounds exciting! We can do "good". No nibbling on Slave's shirt when she cleans our pen.

A Holiday Hello

Scottie here! I hope everyone is having a happy and healthy holiday season.
 
My older brother, Nugget, passed away last month, and I miss him a lot, so my mom and dad said it might be a good idea to invite some friends over. Here we are together.
 
We send festive wishes to all, and we hope you like our card.
 
 

A Piggy A-Z continued

 Hello readers,

It is a long time since we published a story in our A-Z so it is about we picked up where we left off. 

"Where was that then?" asks Bella Piggyfriend through a mouthful of grass.

"I think we had reached M," replies Mama Bonbon. " Oh that is M for me!"

"M for me too," says Miss Marple ( right of our photo).

"I can think of a good word for N," announces Mama Bonbon ( left of our photo ). "We should start with N for Nutrition. We have talked a lot about different veggies since we started this marathon alphabet and we probably did G for Grass but this is the finest food for piggies and we cannot rate it highly enough." (munch munch munch )

"Aunty Pat has an idea for N as well," says Mama Bonbon so we will see that one soon.

Sugar’s Halloween Pigture

This is Sugar. She lives in Towson Maryland USA. Sugar was instrumental in helping her mom and dad get everything ready for Halloween Trick-or-Treaters. 

Happy Hallowe'en!

First of all we must apologise to our dear readers for the long delay in getting back to posting. Like our friends, the Surrey Squeakers, we depend on our Slave to help us write the blog and both of our Slaves have been very busy but now we are back to wish everyone a Happy Hallowe'en.

Ambrose: "What is that fat round orange thing next to you Oscar?"

Oscar: " Why, that is you Ambrose!"

Ambrose: " Very funny! No. The other side."

Oscar: " I don't know but there is another one beside you. You can't see it because the sun is in your eyes and don't look now but there is a big spider above your head."

Oscar and Ambrose: " We do not understand what this is all about but Slave says that we must both say 'Happy Hallowe'en!' to our readers."

So we are. " Happy Hallowe'en!" 

Oscar: "What was that all about Ambrose?"

Ambrose: " I am sure that I don't know. Let's go and ask Mr. Google. He will know."
