I dunno, man, it's not far from you especially and it's less than half the price of London Zoo!

Sorry things went so bad at first. I'm glad you got ice cream and tiny mice and someone to go around with you.

And those harvest mice are super-adorable!

They were SO SMALL it was almost too much to process. THEY HAVE A FULL COMPLIMENT OF ORGANS AND YET. So tiny!

How do you fit an entire mouse in there?

Sometimes change of scenery is the best way of diffusing the situation.

Eh by the time there was a change of scenery the situation had been diffused anyway, I just needed to get away from the wreckage.

They were - corn snakes and texan rat snakes - but every much partitioned from the mows, and clearly quite Fed.

Tiny mice! So cute!

I would like to send you ice cream, but fear it to be impractical unless I go with the weird astronaut stuff, which is a bit yuck.

Unrelated: I binged on OITNB, saw you as Nicky halfway through, and was very taken by this :)

I wonder if there IS a service that will send ice cream to people from a nearby depot, though? It'd make a killing.

YOU'RE NOT THE FIRST TO HAVE MADE THAT COMPARISON, apparently wild-haired rug-munchers with histories of drug use and horrible mothers make people think of me...

Was it Tregothnan or somewhere else that used to do the cream teas by post? I should find out.

It was the bit where she's in the lunch line, talking about her mother- "she is a cunt. I am an embarrassment"- that really sealed it, I think.

It was! Nat sent me one after I was dumped. :)

Yes, yes, that is pretty much ... the moment it clicked for me too. Oh dear.
