Monkey.

It’s Flower Friday again but, unfortunately, although we almost invariably go to the garden emporium for lunch and a quick Blip on Fridays, I rarely come away with a picture of a flower.

The two miniature donkeys were taken home before Christmas having earned a few bob for their local charity - leaving only a fenced off area of straw bedding and some rather hairy manure. I’m sure that the proprietor has some roses that will be grateful for it when it has decomposed a little more.

The monkey in the Blip is a puppet (yours for £17.99), suitable for use by a ventriloquist; consequently, it has a hole up its bottom to receive the operator’s hand.
