A quartet of Flugs...

For those of you who saw the plucky little Flug arrive a couple of days ago, I don't know about you, but I couldn't help thinking that he didn't look very happy, what do you think?

Well, guess what?

Quite early this morning there was a sound outside.....and when I opened the door, there stood not one, but 3 little Flugs!!!

First there was Tomas,

Then there was Rosie,And then Maxwell,

You should have seen Simon , the first little Flug's, face!!

Now do you see how happy he is?

What a transformation now his friends are here.

And it's the first time that Flugs have made it over the wall ON THEIR OWN!!!

They did set out FIVE days ago, they tell me, so I've no idea where they've been! Flugs do not have a very good sense of direction, you know.

Still they're here now, and, as you can see, they loved having their photos taken!

As I looked out this morning.....

this is the sight that greeted my eyes..........

yes, a new group of Pipples had trudged out of the woods, and were coming across the fields in the snow.

And can you spot someone following...... right at the back? Someone struggling to keep up? Yes, look, it's a little Flug! At least I think that's what he is - it was quite hard to tell with all that snow....
The snow was very deep and the Pipples found it very difficult to cross..... one of them got a bit stuck......but Pipples are really good at helping each other, and managed to get her out quite quickly.Then it was just a matter of getting over the wall.......the little Flug was still managing to keep up although he looked a bit puffed out!the first Pipple made it to the top of the wall, and the others helped each other in the usual manner.....
until they were all up. Then it was time to knock on the door.......and when I opened it, there they all were.........

even the little Flug.......eventually!

4 Pipples.....and a Flug!

Exciting news - last night, four more Pipples made it all the way through the woods, across the fields and over the wall...........and following them......very slowly......was the first Flug!!

They were on the doorstep this morning.

The Pipples had had to wait a long time for the Flug but they were kind and didn't want to leave him on his own because they knew he would get lost. Flugs are not the brightest of creatures. And they don't have a very good sense of direction.

The Pipples introduced themselves, from the left is Mabel, Miranda, Freya and at the front is Hetty. All girls this time, although they did tell me that some boys are on their way.

The Flug is called Arthur.

He searched around for a long time when he came in, looking for some wood. Flugs, as you know, love wood. Once he had found a log beside the fire, he stayed there for a long time, watching everyone.

The next time I looked though......oops! What are you doing down there? Did you fall asleep?

I don't think you do it like that! Do you need some help?

Oh that is very kind.

Happy now?

Jolly good. Night night, then. xx
