and overwhelming happiness towards my little friend. I have no idea what set it off, nor can I remember what I was doing at the time. It seems that while I've obviously become attached to it (literally!!!), I suddenly realized how amazing this little thing is.

I went out for a short walk yesterday and stopped off to have a cuppa and a cake in a nearby bar and while sitting at the table it proceeded to gurgle away quite happily. A while ago I would have been embarrassed and felt awkward, but yesterday I found myself sitting there trying desperately hard not to laugh!!
Just thought it would be good to post something cheery. Hope everyone is well.
