Secrets


Princess Kitty and Growly Bear have been talking about secrets today. They talked about whether it is important to have secrets. Princess Kitty thinks some secrets are bad. She understands that you have to have private bits of you though. Growly Bear agrees.

The point of guinea pigs is a secret. It is a secret that Princess Kitty and Growly Bear want to find out more about though. They think it is probably a good secret.

One thing they are sure about is that the point of guinea pigs is not to make pies out of. Not like that bad witch Fatty Flatfoot. She has lots of secrets. Lots of bad secrets.

Princess Kitty had secrets when she worked for Fatty Flatfoot. She kept secret some of the bad things that Fatty Flatfoot did. She kept secret the bad things that Suma did too. She kept secret the bad things that Fatty Flatfoot did to her. Growly Bear did not know anything about it until Princess Kitty told him after he escaped. She kept her secrets because she was frightened. She also kept her secrets because she thought it was best for others.

Perhaps the important thing about secrets is that they should always be good.

Dream Boy



Growly Bear has dreams. He dreams about all sorts of things. Sometimes he dreams when he is asleep and sometimes he dreams when he is awake.

Some of his awake dreams are about Princess Kitty. He dreams about kissing her when they are not together. He dreams about her cuddling him and stroking his tummy. He dreams about making honey with her.

Princess Kitty understands these dreams. She has such dreams about Growly Bear. She is puzzled about some of his other awake dreams though.

Growly Bear has dreams about Princess Kitty wearing certain sorts of clothes. Princess Kitty never dreams about what Growly Bear wears. Growly Bear dreams about Princess Kitty wearing lacy underwear. Princess Kitty never dreams about Growly Bears pants. Growly Bear dreams about Princess Kitty wearing stockings and high heeled shoes. Princess Kitty never dreams about Growly Bears socks and shoes. Growly Bear dreams about Princess Kitty dressing up in shiny black leather clothes and being very strict with him. Princess Kitty never dreams about Growly Bear being strict with her, although she does like him in his leather skateboarding clothes.

Princess Kitty wonders if Growly Bear is alright. She thinks it is very strange that he dreams about her clothes. Like guinea pigs, Growly Bear is hard to understand sometimes.

A Few Favourite Things


Princess Kitty and Growly Bear are tired. They have been making some more delicious honey. They have used up a lot of energy. They tried a few new things but also kept in some of the special ingredients they know make the honey taste good.

Princess Kitty loves making honey with Growly Bear. It is at the top of her list of things she likes to do. Other things on her list are singing and playing her guitar. She likes running and riding her skate board. She likes talking with Growly Bear about things, such as the point of guinea pigs. She loves spending time with her kittens and others that she loves. She especially likes playing tricks on Growly Bear.

Growly Bear is funny when Princess Kitty plays tricks on him. He pretends that he thinks it is terrible but Princess Kitty knows that he likes it really. She knows that Growly Bear understands that the tricks she plays are because she loves him. Sometimes she laughs about her tricks. When she does, Growly Bear laughs a bit too. When Princess Kitty asks if he is going to get her back though, he just growls.

A Helping Hand


Growly Bear is at the Cardigan. He and Princess Kitty have been out to a concert. They have been to see Growly Bear's boy cub who is in a band.

Growly Bear's cub's band is very loud. Very loud indeed. They are quite famous though. And the music they make is very good. They work very well together as a band. Growly Bear says their music is ground breaking.

Growly Bear and Princess Kitty are in bed now. Princess Kitty reflects upon their evening. Growly Bear had introduced her to his cub, although he did not tell him about their love.

Princess Kitty loves the way that Growly Bear is proud of his cub. She knows that Growly Bear has played a big part in helping his cub. He taught him to play the guitar just like he has taught Princess Kitty. Clever Growly Bear.

Helping other people is important. Princess Kitty knows it has something to do with the point of guinea pigs. Growly Bear often helps other people. Perhaps this is because he used to be a boy scout. He helps Princess Kitty. It is one of the many things that Princess Kitty loves about Growly Bear.

She looks at Growly Bear sleeping next to her. "I love you Growly Bear" she whispers as she snuggles up next to his nice warm tummy.

The Young One


Princess Kitty has been to a concert. A concert of Nick Drake songs. She had heard a few before she went but enjoyed hearing more. She likes the plaintiff sounds and the poetic lyrics. She thinks it is very very sad that he died so young, never knowing how famous he would be, not living to see himself get the acclaim he deserved. She feels sorry for the people that loved him.

She wonders how someone so young could know so much about guinea pigs. She wonders how he could have become so technically brilliant at such a tender age. Life can be very sad sometimes.

Growly Bear has talent too. He can do magic. He is starting to understand about this more and more. This week he has been encouraging the naughty bears he works with to do difficult things and to see things differently. He can get them to do things most people could not.

Princess Kitty wonders where Growly Bear's magic will take him. At least there is no chance of him dying young like Nick Drake.

A Ray Of Sunshine


Princess Kitty's girl kitten has been to visit tonight. Princess Kitty loves her girl kitten. She is so full of life. Growly Bear would say that she is "full of vim and vigour". She does not really understand the point of guinea pigs yet but Princess Kitty knows that she is magic.

Princess Kitty and her girl kitten have been playing guitars together. Princess Kitty gave her old guitar to her girl kitten. She was very pleased. Princess Kitty taught her some chords. She taught her to play a song. She taught her to play "You Are My Sunshine".

Princess Kitty thinks her girl kitten is her little ray of sunshine. She loves her very much. She drinks a little toast to her clever daughter.

Knickers In A Twist


Growly Bear has been doing his chores. He has been doing some cleaning and sorting out the washing. He is quite clever. He knows how to work the washing machine all by himself.

He has also been saying some more of his funny words. Today's word was 'jolly' to mean 'very'. He made Princess Kitty giggle when he said it.

This evening Growly Bear has been working. He has been helping some bears that have been in trouble to change their behaviour. He tries to help them understand a little more about guinea pigs. He is very good at this.

Princess Kitty has been busy too. She has had a busy day at work today and then another meeting this evening. The meeting was a bit frustrating. The person in charge was a bit weak and so the meeting went on a long time without much getting done. Princess Kitty finds she gets a bit cross when this happens. She tries to be helpful though. She knows that this is something she needs to be careful about as she can be grumpy when this happens.

Sometimes Princess Kitty gets a bit grumpy with Growly Bear. He is always very patient and understanding when she is. Princess Kitty thinks this is kind of him.

Growly Bear is sometimes grumpy with Princess Kitty. Princess Kitty can be naughty when Growly Bear is bit irritable. Sometimes she teases him. Everyone knows that teasing bears is bad. Naughty Princess Kitty.

The Sublime And The Ridiculous


Growly Bear has found a song for Princess Kitty to sing. It is called "My Baby Loves Me Just The Way I Am". Princess Kitty had not heard the song before but she likes it. She is going to practice playing and singing it until she can do it well.

Princess Kitty has been practising on her guitar all evening. She has been practising her singing too. She has been working very hard. She is one step closer to discovering the point of guinea pigs. Good girl Princess Kitty.

Growly Bear has been watching television tonight. He has been watching "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here". He says it is sociologically important. He has not thought about guinea pigs at all. Oh dear Growly Bear.

Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder


Growly Bear is missing Princess Kitty today. He always misses her but today he is missing her a lot. He thinks about her living in The Cardigan on her own. He thinks of her playing her new guitar and singing on her own. He thinks of her cooking and eating on her own. He thinks about her wondering about guinea pigs on her own. He would like to be with her.

Growly Bear has had a nice day though. He has been to see some other bears and one of his cubs is coming over this evening. Growly Bear is cooking a special meal for her. He likes seeing his cubs.

It is his girl cub that is coming to visit. She is very clever. She is an artist. Growly Bear can draw and paint a little bit but his cub is very talented. Growly Bear is very proud of her.

Growly Bear goes back to thinking about Princess Kitty. Everyone tells him that absence makes the heart grow fonder. He understands this but it doesn't stop him wishing he was cuddling Princess Kitty right now.

Safe Text


Growly Bear and Princess Kitty have been texting each other today. They text each other a lot.

Sometimes they send texts to tell each other they love each other. Like in the mornings they race to see who can be first to send a message of love.

Sometimes they send texts to tell each other what they are doing. Like when Princess Kitty goes out running or Growly Bear is cooking and fixing things.

Sometimes they send texts when they have a good idea. Like when they think they might have found the point of guinea pigs.

Sometimes they send texts to let each other know they are safe and sound. Like when they have been out on their skateboards together.

Sometimes they send texts to tell each other how much they miss one another. Like when they are apart and have an ache inside.

It is good to be able to send messages when they cannot be together. It makes them feel safe and loved.
