And here we have Mika's camels!!! And there's not one, not two... but three!!! A couple of close ups! Mystery 3rd camel, who are you? 🤔 This one is Becky! She has a sore hump that won't heal properly but she is fine! And the adopters sign! While watching the camels the weather was fine but as soon as I left them to go see the lions it started raining so bad! Mainly stuck to the indoor enclosures while I was there, but I wanted to pass the camel enclosure again before heading out but they'd all gone inside by then Really surprised as well that the gift shop had no camel merch whatsoever! Little bit gutted about that. But I did buy this at a charity shop! 😁 I had a good time there (despite the weather), it's well worth the visit! Thanks so much C.J. 🙏 A shame that Mika doesn’t know yet 🙁It’s about time he found out😂 Four months only until his next birthday !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 While in Chester I bought a rare (-ish?) copy of Kipling's 'Just So Stories', one of the stories is "How the Camel got its Hump", it has prints of Kipling's illustrations and here is the camel getting it's hump! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I've been going through some old children's books I have (deciding what to keep and what to give away) and I came across this rather beautiful illustration in one of them! 😁 This is one of the few pages that is actually in good condition, the rest of the book... well not so much! 😅 But it was a gift from my Nanna when I was about 5 years old, so I'm keeping it! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Went to a really fancy tea room today which had a large teapot collection on the shelves, one of which was a camel teapot! I thought it might be a little weird to start taking pics infront of other customers so I had a look online and this one is very similar to what I saw! 😁 🐪 🫖 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I came across this camel statue a while ago, I was going to suggest it as a joke present for Mika's birthday but forgot all about it, but I think it's worth sharing here anyway! 😁 It's an 8ft tall recycled metal statue, yours for only £2500! It is currently unavailable but I think the people who make these take custom orders, you can read more about it here: https://www.britishironworkcentre.co.uk/shop/camel-recycled-metal-sculpture?gclid=CjwKCAjw3POhBhBQEiwAqTCuBiIenfoMlmw_2GZjGWeiPI8xxGjgYJuOd0iixCr1ylXw7TIOsxFmIBoC8eMQAvD_BwE#product-spec And I love that it's safe enough to sit on! 🐫 🐪 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted Tuesday at 01:27 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:27 PM I mean of course there would be a picture of a camel near the picture of Mika in today's TV magazine!!! These camels get everywhere! 🤣 🐪 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
