Happy Birthday, Pamela!

A very happy birthday to Auntie Pamela, today!

Today she comes of age!

I hope she has a great day! Though the big party is Saturday!

Mungo thinks she's great! She's one of his favourite people! He's always saying so!

I'm Back!

Yes, everyone I'm back!

No, we were not abducted by aliens, turned into fodder for a freak show, nor for sale on ebay! (As if anyone could afford me, let alone Mungo!)

This is a very important time of the year - it's the voting time for DNOTY! (Disresponsible Nodpot of the Year).

A very important message from Vin Diesel follows:

Vin says: "I'm voting for Mungo - are you?"

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MONKEY?

Where is Mango?

Mango went to Blackrock recently to visit Mungo. She was accompanied by her best friend, Tottie.

Now Mango, Tottie, Mungo and Miss Monkey are missing.

Iseult, who was in loco parentis to Mango and Tottie, denies any knowledge of their whereabouts.

A police investigation is about to begin.

If you have seen any of these missing toys, please let me (or Bobby) know!

MANGO

Mango is due back next week, and will update her blog on a regular basis thereafter.

A Poem

By Tottie.

She wrote it for Mummy.

It's titled:
To Mummy

What will I do
About Assignment Two?
I feel blue
And in a stew
About Assignment Two!

Poetry

A cold house stifles the muse - no heat, no poetry!

So keep the heat on all day and all night, tcm!

Sunday November 5th

Visiting Blackrock today. It's a very special occasion - Geri Valentine's birthday! I don't know how old she is, she looks very young to be Mummy's mother (though Tottie says that she is WAY older than Mungo, who is 17!)

Haven't seen Mungo yet :(

He must be very busy, working on Mango - the fabulous sequel to his brilliant fist novel Leaf!

I think Mungo should be Disresponsible Nodpot of the Year 2006 - don't you?

VOTE FOR MUNGO

Don't forget to vote for Mungo for Disresponsible Nodpot of the Year.

He really deserves it!

If you've read Leaf, you will know it's the best book ever written (so far!).

If you know Mungo, you know he should win the Nodpot Cup this year!

So Vote for Mungo!

MANGO - THE UNLUCKY MONKEY

November is going to be a really GREAT month!

Mungo - the most wonderful monkey and writer on earth and my hero! - is going to write a book during November called "Mango - the Unlucky Monkey". It's a sequel to his brilliant first novel, Leaf, and I'm going to be in it as well!

I'm not sure if Tottie will be - but Mummy is going to write one for her called "Tottie - the demon rabbit slayer!"

The only thing is - I'm not sure if Tottie is the demon rabbit who slays - or if she will slay demon rabbits?

Snuggles is voting for Mungo:

Snuggles says : "I'm voting for Mungo - are you?"





"He's written the best book ever. The author of 'Leaf' deserves to win Nodpot of the Year"

Get Ready to Vote for MUNGO!

Patchette is!!!

Nodpot of the Year 2006

There can be only ONE winner - MUNGO!!!

Vote for Mungo for Disresponsible Nodpot of the Year 2006!

I AM!!

Vote for Mungo!

Don't forget to vote for Mungo!

How many times do I have to tell you!

I'm Back!

Yes, I'm back!

And I'm going to vote for Mungo for Disresponsible Nodpot of 2006!

I think you should do the same!

Mango is away BUT

She asked me to post this:

At the moment, both Mango and Tottie are campaigning in Blackrock, but I believe they should be back next week to work on Mungo's campaign in Dublin!

Where is Mungo?

I can't wait until Friday when I will see Mungo again, cos I've missed him so much since I came back to Dublin last week.

What's even worse, is that he isn't updating his blog frequently any more! At least in the past, I could turn to his blog for consolation, inspiration & his charming company. I re-read all the archives every day but I wish he's post new stuff so I know he's okay.

Please, Mungo, update your blog - not just for me, but for Tottie, The Choccie Monster and all your numerous fans who really miss you!

Our First My Birthday!

Our (Tottie and mine) First My Birthday is coming up this friday and we're both really excited!

I'm not quite sure what it is, 'cos I haven't had one before, but it sounds very exciting and great fun!

Best of all, I'll be home once more to see my hero!!!

Can't wait!!!!

A Lovely Surprise!

Last night we had a lovely surprise - Mummy Iseult arrived out in the house in Churchtown for an unexpected visit! She had been busy with Mummy Valerie making contact with people in Trinity - and though her fingers were sore, at least they were not sticky!

We stayed up late and watched lots of Arrested Development - it was great fun! Then we went into battle against the arachnids - Mummy, Tottie, me, and also Squidgey - cos we all stayed with Mummy in her spider-infested cobweb-festooned room! It was yucky! I don't think any of us got much sleep - and Tottie (the fight is personal for her) had very grubby paws this morning!

I was really sad to see Mummy Iseult leave without us this morning - I really wanted to go home to see Mungo, but Mummy said it was better to wait until our first My birthday next weekend.

I hope we get lots of pressies!

Mungo, we really miss you - and can't wait to see you next week! XXXX

Still cross

I'm still very cross with Tottie for her cruel and thoughtless and infantile and immature and ... and words fail me!

Mungo was so upset...

I am talking to her again, but she needs to make it up to Mungo!

Yes, I'm back!

Today I returned to Dublin with Mummy Valerie after a lovely long holiday with Mummy Iseult! I got to spend weeks and weeks with Mungo my hero, and Tottie, my best friend.

It was really wonderful!

I'm sad today though because Tottie, my best friend, isn't talking to me.

She says it 's all my fault Mungo isn't in Dublin with us. I suppose she's right...

Mango will return!

Good news - Mango will return next week.
Anon here, updating you on her current position. She is still on holidays (lucky thing!) with Mungo, Tottie and a few others, but assuming she can tear herself away from that handsome white monkey, she will be back in Dublin to take up once more the reigns of her blog. Until then, please bear patiently with her...

We're back!

Hello Auntie P!
Yes, Tottie, Mal and I made it to Donegal - it was touch and go, though! Mummy Valerie nearly didn't make it - and we didn't want to go without her (well, Tottie was prepared to!).
We had a great time - and we're still on holidays, this time in Blackrock! We're all staying with Mummy Iseult for a few weeks, so I won't be able to update my blog too often.

Slow packer...

I've been looking forward to our holiday for AGES, but Mummy Valerie is such a slow packer, I think she'll still be packing here in Dublin next Tuesday and Mungo and the others will eb awawy without me or Tottie or Mal! :(

in the meantime, here is another photo to show you, taken by kind Auntie Pamela:

Special Visitor

We have a special visitor in Dublin - he's the handsome captain of a space ship. I think his ship has been stolen, and he and his crew of Jayne, Wash and Zoe are resting up in Blackrock.
This is Mal:

Great Fun

I had a great weekend at home this bank holiday! Mungo and me and Tottie, and Mal and Nobbles and Marvin played lots and lots of a brilliant game all night, called ********* ** ****** (can't reveal the real name). Mungo and me were partners, and the best partners too - our weapons dripped with the blood of our enemies! Can't wait for Donegal and lots more fighting with Mungo! (Together with Mungo!)

Holidays are coming...

Holidays are coming, holidays are coming... Me and Mungo and Tottie, and Marvin and Parsley and a few more, ooh and Mummies Iseult and Valerie - we're all going on summer holidays tomorrow week! I'm really looking forward to it - a whole week with my hero and my best friend and a few other friends (and Janna too, of course!). It's going to be great!

I wonder if Mungo will want to do writing? If he does, I'll write some poetry!

Can't wait!

Oops!

Red face & fur all round! Sorrrrrrrrryy to all my readers - but it's fixed now! You can all comment once again!

Nobody reads my blog anymore

Now that the initial excitment is over, no one bothers any more (come back, spammer!). But who cares? I'm going on hols with Mungo next week! And with Tottie and a few others - off to the wierd and wonderful world of Dusty!
Hope he's not too musty and dirty!

Great news, everybody!

Mungo has made a full recovery! His powers of recuperation are as wonderful as his writing, and he is now back to his normal monkey self!
I was very worried for a while - monkey frantic, in fact! - but thankfully we can all relax a bit now that he's better.
The only question is - who shot Mungo? His assailant is still at large, and he needs protection. PC Bobby seems to be moving very slowly in the matter, for there are no arrests as of yet.

To add to the fun

Just to make me feel even better, my blog has been spammed! So all those nice comments admiring my colour scheme and the helpful links to pharmaceutical sites to get banned substances were fake!
Hey - could the Mungo photo be spam too? And now on thousands of blogs across the world????

Too upset to write anymore...

I know it's a publicity stunt really, and Mungo is only pretending, but I can't bear to look at this picture! I'm too sad and depressed now to do anything...

Who shot Mungo?

BREAKING NEWS: Shortly after lunch time today a shot was heard from the upper regions of the house followed by screaming. Upon investigation, Mungo was found in Iseult's office, lying next to a gun. He was rushed to the Toy Hospital, but has not yet regained conciousness. Whether this was an attack or self inflicted has yet to be discovered. Friends of Mungo claim that the shooting was inspired by jealousy of Mungo's enormous talent.

'He has a lot of enemies.' One Ballinteer housewife claimed. 'When you are as handsome, talented, judging and creative as Mungo, you are bound to have people who want to shoot you.'

Reported by Marvin

Dublin News

The house is going to be very quiet for the next few days. The two noisy skinny ones are going home. Leppie took Parm home in the Leopard (watch out dogs! He had a hungry look about him), and Madeline is following at a safe distance (of 12 to 15 hours). Is that far enough - what do you think?

Hi there Parsley!

Hi Parsley!
I hope Iseult sorts out your email setup so that you can post here soon!
Hope you're having fun in the village! (Hee! Hee!)

Thank you, Marvie

Thank you, Marvin for posting on my blog! I hope you will continue to post often. You are lucky enough to live in Theotokos with Mungo - you can fill us Dublin toys in on how he is and what he's doing (when he doesn't have time himself). We'd also love to hear about you, and Parsley, and Sparkie and all the toys at home. So please keeping posting here!

Strange

I don't know why is says I am inkpot!, I am Marvin

Marvie speaks

Hello All. Mango very kindly invited me to join her blog as a team member, so I accepted. It is beautiful weather here in Blackrock and all the toys are enjoying the coolness of Iseult's room. I am looking forward to going on holidays in a few weeks time. I haven't been on holidays for a while, so it will be nice and I hope the weather stays fine. I'm new to this blogging sort of thing, so if you have any tips, let me know!

Membership Rules!

I think the following rules are the most important when it comes to joining the Disresponsible Nodpots:
1. Recognising Mungo's brilliance
2. Fav book must be Leaf
3. Being an enthusiastic toy, preferably a monkey, who has written extensively and admiringly about Mungo
4. Being an active nodpot with at least one poem to her credit
5. Have Mungo's total approval for membership Therefore I think I qualify totally, and I hope to become a member at Christmas (in time for the vote)!

Excitment mounts!

We are all very excited here! The holiday list has been finalised and the lucky winners are ...
Mungo!
Me!
Tottie!
Mungo!
Marvin!
Parsley!
Mungo
And some others...
There's lots of disappointment among the other toys but Tottie and me are thrilled to pieces!

Does Sparkie sparkle?

Sparkie, why do you not want me to join? What have you got against me? Did I annoy you? I'm really sorry!

Warning to Mango

Don't do it! Mango, dont start a blog - your chances of getting int othe DNs will be ruined! Give it up now!

Hi Mango!

I know I'm not a toy - but you did invite me to post! Oh - it was just a test? Well it works! Good work!

Calling all toys!

I want to see all the toys get together and have fun on my blog! I'm going to make a membership club for thsi blog that we call all share and log all our thoughts, especially those about Mungo! I'm also going to keep you posted on all the doings in this house, and what Tottie and myself and all our friends get up to! I want a website with lots of poems about Mungo on it, and lots of photos of him, and tributes to him - so come on, toys of the world! Get posting!
