Easter Weekend!

I have a long Easter Weekend and it is about to start any time now!

Woo hoo!

Not that it will be Dissertation Free, of course.  I am spending at least a couple of hours each day on it...

But the Big Event this weekend will be -

sexing the baby rabbits!

Having lost faith in the vet (who told us we had to boys...) we are having a go ourselves.  Mrs RC has found a guide on the internet and we are going to study it and then try our new skills.  The plan is for each of us to look at each of the rabbits and then compare what we think.  Starting off looking at the adults should help - we already know what sex they are, afterall!

And now, as the dissertation nears completion, my thoughts can't help flitting to the new guitar that I have promised myself...


It is the one that I played before Christmas, on the day I met Agg79 in London.  It's a real beast and no mistake...  There was an interesting section on the website that I took the pic from - "People who looked at this product also looked at:  Ear Plugs"!

More soon - I will let you all know how the sexing works out...

If you want the job down correctly, you need to do it yourself. So it sounds smart for you and Mrs RC to check out the rabbits yourselves. Are you going to separate them according to what you believe are their sexes?

Hope you get more work done on the dissertation.

New amp. New guitar. You deserve it. Maybe you can score another deal like you did with the amp. Plan another road trip to London to flit with it?

Have a great Easter weekend with the family and bunnies (Happy Sexing)!

BTW - love the new header picture.

I love the new header picture too!
I'm glad you described what you meant by "sexing", 'cause I wasn't sure what to think....
Sure hope you're able to get the guitar you want! That would be a great reward for finishing your dissertation. The earplug link is quite funny, but I doubt anyone in your family would need them. :)
Happy Easter!

Oh, yes, please DO sex and tell!

And go get the sweet guitar, you deserve a reward.

I have a friend whose son, when very young, sort of caught them "in the act." He was knocking on the bedroom door and they kept telling him to wait a minute and he responded, "GROSS! Are you guys sexing in there?"

Just made me giggle to read about the rabbit sexing! :-)

You deserve that guitar. It's SO cool!

CiCi - Yes, we are now organised so that when we work out who are boys and girls we can split them up. No more co-ed bunnies here! Hopwfully...

Agg79 - I am ordering it from a local shop - paying a little more for it but it saves the travel and I can collect it at lunchtime the day after I order it.

ShadowRun300 - glad I made everything clear - didn't want to get a reputation that I don't deserve!

Abby - You should work for a gossip magazine...

Terri - A "friend", eh? I understand. Wink. :-) Takes me back to those "Do you and mummy still do it?" moments with the kids when they were learning about that sort of thing!

Earplugs.. haaaaaaaaaa! Lotsa' luck with the sexing, you certainly can't do any worse than the vet did (giggle). That's some serious guitar up there.

Shrinky - glad you appreciate the awesomeness of that guitar!
