And influence people?! This phrase may be well known to many, in this age of Mobile Phones & IT wizardry. but meeting a person in real life and discovering friendship between compatible souls, is another matter entirely.
I'm glad to have stumbled upon one Caddoc Trellis, who fits the bill for me - shy little piglet that I am. Sorry about the blurry picture of our historic meeting...
I first came to life thanks to the nimble fingers of one who was and is an admirer of the original Pooh and Piglet tales. My photograph clearly tells the world I'm of an era long before Walt Disney created his cartoon version. My 'blueprint', as you might say, was drawn by E H Shepard, to whom I'll owe a debt of gratitude for ever more...
Hello there, little piglet! Ada keeps me shed-bound for long stretches of time, so new friends are welcome but thin on the ground. Perhaps we could create a new venture, together?
ReplyDeleteOo - do you mean like a real 'adventure'? I'd be far too scared to go on one of those...my little leggies tremble at the thought...
DeleteI see you're back, Caddoc, if only as a commenter. I look forward to more from you.
ReplyDeleteErr...um..ah Would I do instead, Doctor? Caddoc is covered in soup, and can't come out to play.
DeleteWho could resist this little piglet's charms?
ReplyDeleteJinksy, I think the answer to your question has to be "Almost everybody"...only the two gentlemen and yourself have come to visit. But what could a shy, retiring little piglet know about being popular? (Sniff, snuffle, blows nose and returns to mud wallow, to regain composure...)
