Penguin

[dcannon]

After the sad news of the Whale in the thames never making it home what a great story to read today that the penguin whos baby Toga was stolen from a zoo in Isle of Wight has just laid another egg. Bless :-)

I saw her in Mothercare this morning. She's getting really excited.

Take it this a wind-up?

[Englishbird]

which bit? The Penguin laying an egg is true..... I doubt she was in Mothercare ;o)

Sorry misread Q.Thought Toga had been found and laid an egg.- Doh!!!

Nice to know tragedy doesnt get in the way of our natural urges :)

dcannon - I sympathise. I'm afraid you've been threadjacked. Just be thankful no-one's taken you to task yet for the heinous crime of daring to post something without - gasp - using a question mark! Oh, the horror!

Anyway, enough of that. It is indeed very good news. Let's just hope the zoo's security has been tightened up in case any more lowlife types fancy 'a bit of a laugh'.

Thank you little old me for a lovely answer. After I'd posted another question on film/tv I had another idiot tell me today that I could have easily just looked it up. Er isnt that what this site is for to answer my question.

I do too hope that the next baby penguin is kept safe and well. :-)

that's good news... though I do wonder if this is the first thread ever to be based on the fact that a bird has laid an egg!

We've caused lots of threads - not just one.

My initial replies were fine - my second one actually poking fun at myself.

Notice you didn't have a pop at Stevie - thats just not fair (throws a massive tantrum!!).

Looks like we have been rumbled though - better be more careful in future - cant be seen to be having a laugh.

I'm sorry and I am chuffed that Togas mum is having another baby - genuinely.
