Are co-op encouraging cleptomania?

Took the little one for a walk to the shops today .. for some banana's. Took about ten minutes just to get to the top of the road but to be fair to him he does have little legs!

We eventually got to the local co-op and I introduced Zoo to the friendly shop manager. VJ shook his hand firmly and pointed him in the direction of the fruit. Zoo decided to help out by carrying one banana for me, (a bunch was too heavy) and we made our way to the checkout. I passed over our items for weighing and scanning and Zoo passed over his banana .. but VJ refused to accept it and insisted that he could keep it for free.

Just wish I had got him to pick up something a bit more expensive now!!

Working Holiday

Just heard from Vertigo and Visa. They haven't met any golf playing apes yet ... but have met some interesting native creatures.

One in particular tried to persuade them that a yellow and black painted proton saga with a taxi sign on the side and 145,000 miles on the meter was a brand new rental car. Suffice to say they were not convinced. I suggested that perhaps they could have taken the car nonetheless and picked up a couple of rides along the way. Any profits of course could have been donated to the Orangutan sanctuary! Vertigo said she would have considered it but it took Clyde, the driver ten minutes just to start the engine. Personally I think they should have questioned why the guy was wearing an orange gorilla suit.

Save the golfing orangutans

Vertigo and Visa are renowned for their international golfing. They are currently in Borneo and Vertigo explains that the main reason for going there is to see orangutans in their normal environment in the wild, acting naturally.
I suspect that she may be surprised when she actually gets there!
