You had had to wait until little...That's right! You had had to wait until little Yarrow could go without her dummy or pacifier or bung or whatever you call them. She used them two at a time. But the monkeys would steal them. So she had to go without for two hours. Ack! Anguish! Drama!<br /><br />That monkey was so cute. He sat on Nick's lap eating some nuts. A little young monkey, soft brown fur, those little hands, round gentle eyes, and an friendly impish smile which then he opened and suddenly sank his long razor sharp teeth into Nick's finger.<br /><br />The nurse said he was probably just curious. "What? To see what I taste like?" asked an extremely annoyed Nick. "Yes," said the nurse and gave him a bright smile and a bandage. I asked if Nick would need shots or anything but she said oh no, the all the <i>animals</i> there were free of disease.Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259837644504584210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930434804735855799.post-16278280967550295822011-09-12T19:58:23.663+10:002011-09-12T19:58:23.663+10:00I remember!

So hav...Ah, so you've been bitten by a bat too! So have I - the girls found a wounded bat in the back yard. We took it inside while we contacted teh animal rescue vets. It flew around some, and bit me when I tried to catch it. But we made friends later, and there are photo's of it walking up and down my arms and shoulders.<br /><br />But Nick has been bitten by a monkey! It was at Apenheul zoo in The Netherlands, a zoo specially for primates and a lot of them roam around free. He was about 10 years old at the time I think.Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259837644504584210noreply@blogger.com
