Uglyworld #232 - Snow Watchers

Wedgehead, Cinko and Babo were amazed when they found out that there had been a reindeer in our garden and spent the entire day standing looking out of the window watching out for another one.

They said that it was too cold for them to go outside as they don't have any warm clothes to wear yet - they keep asking Mireille and me to make them some clothes to keep them warm during the winter months.

I'm actually working on my first ever hat for big Wage at the moment, while Mireille works on a Santa hat for Babo - hopefully they'll appear in the coming days ;)

The trio of snow watchers are also in for another surprise, as "Scottish mum" will be arriving here tomorrow afternoon - will be fun to see their faces then!!!

With all the little guys completely unaware of the 2 extra magic beans that had been left in the garden by the mysterious man who was selling them at the market last weekend, they had no reason to look outside, let alone down to the bottom of the garden.

But unknown to them the two other magic beans had also now waved their magic wand and produced some interesting things...

As I worked away inside the house I heard the cover of the swimming pool whirring and could see it closing over the top of the water - this isn't too abnormal a thing to witness, but when it's under 10oC outside and we're into October it's a little strange - so I ventured down to the bottom of the garden to see if the motor of the cover was broken.

I got the fright of my life when I got down to the pool and found Cinko standing staring at me with his 3 eyes, he seemed quite afraid of me too, but after running back inside to get a towel to dry him off he realised there was nothing to be afraid of.
