Matt's Ringtailed Lemur

Hi I'm Lemar the ringtailed lemur.

I'm so sleepy! I get so hot and tired sunbathing on my little rug that I just need to close my eyes and have a little nap.

I like boursin and chocolate milk, but not at the same time!!!! :) That would be silly!!

Geoffrey Giraffe told me I got 3rd prize in the contest, so I'm very happy, but so so sleepy! I'm going to close my eyes, just for one minute...

T'other Jo's Tortoise



Hello, my name is Terrence and I'm a very tired old tortoise but I'm running as fast as I can!

I like lettuce, cardboard boxes full of straw and the slow-moving elderly. I dislike the yoof of today and exercise videos.

I look good enough to eat!

Camelion


Hi, my name is Camelion coz I started life as a camel but after some intensive plastic(ine) surgery I transformed into the buff, tough lion that you see today.

I like lying around in the sun working on my tan, chasing antelope, licking myself and flicking my tail at flies.

My favourite food is steak tartare and on a Friday I like to go down to the Watering Hole with my Pride and sink a few babyshams.

Jo's Shark

Lenny the Loan Shark

The name's Lenny the Loan Shark.
I like to lend money and then find creative ways of getting it back again, if you know what I mean.
I also enjoy smoking the odd cigar, which is quite a challenge if you live underwater like I do.

I'm not much of a cook, but I do like to pop out for a quick bite when I can.
Favourite movie? Don't be daft, sharks don't go to the pictures.

Mike's Elephant


Steve's Giraffe


Hi, my name's Geoffrey Giraffe
I like walks in the rain, action movies and chuppa chups.
I often have an itch which is hard to get to, so if you're ever behind me, feel free to scratch ...

Leo's Badger


Hello, my name is Barmy Badger. I like long walks, romantic comedies and cheese.


If you tickle my tummy, I will sing the theme tune to 'The Littlest Hobo' and sometimes I will fetch a stick. My favourite TV show is Morph... and Chicken Run was okay I s'pose.


Please join me on this blog as I would like to make friends.
