Blue Tongue Lizard Eating Dogfood from Vectesian Lad

Blue Tongue Lizard Eating Dogfood from Vectesian Lad


Envious of the publicity given to the GGG, in Voice’s back yard column, the
green fingered Vectesian’s lizard wanted celeb status.

Not content with wining and dining on rain water and dog food, the little
squamata craved WDA,P&W notoriety. And after much prevailing and lobbying,
managed to jostle onto the ‘latest post’ list.

I helped the little cutie, BTW. Not that you’d know–he’s done a bunk
now–he’s hiding somewhere!

That’s the rich & famous for you; Bugger orf when it suits them.

He/she may come back. One day. Things are different now though. The old
fence has gone and a concrete driveway has appeared. The muddy path has
disappeared, just like yesterday’s papers.

Perhaps an ad in Rupert’s Gold coast Bulletin, might attract him/her back:
Wanted!: Ex-companion to the rich & famous, looking for lizard’s
company…free food and lodging!

It’s over 10 cm long and 1 cm diameter. The pointy end is the head. Three pairs of legs at the front; maybe more further down but I don’t know. I think it came from a hole in the ground.

Anyone?
