CAUGHT....

Unfortunately Monkey's plan to capture the Easter Bunny misfired...he was caught,... imprisoned and guarded by evil furry one (one of EB's select guard).....

Planning on reaping in the chocolate......Monkey has a cunning plan to catch Easter Bunny....he has a cage, a net and a trail of easter goodies...

RAIN RAIN GO AWAY....

Due to the constant rain, Monkey decides on some indoor penguin bowling (notice the look of fear on the penguin's faces) ...unfortunately he doesn't notice that bird has stumbled into the mix....

Game of kings....

Monkey decides to befriend duck (after sad and traumatic attempt at teaching flight) .....he insists chess is the game of kings....struggles to teach him the Lewinsky move....

Skin deep....

Unfortunately Monkey discovers the joy of manicures, pedicures, massages, facials and an alarming Brazilian....all in the name of Beauty

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

Finally...after weeks of soul searching, chanting mantras and finding his inner animal....Monkey does discover he is beautiful just the way he is.

Buffed bod...

Monkey decides that a bronzed buff body is the way to go..unfortunately, in the attempt to impress, he chooses weights far too heavy...he is pinned down for 3 hours, 21 minutes and 13 seconds before being rescued.

Trying to regain his health (and a degree of respect and dignity) Monkey turns to yoga...unfortunately turning himself into a giant pretzel with a yen for tofu burgers....

Bruises and bumps....

Unfortunately, while carving it up and attempting a banging tail grab and hoping for an extended taco...something went wrong....Monkey realises that sport can hurt..

Striving for gold....

After a bad love affair, and influenced by the winter olympics, Monkey decides this is for him. He's now trying to acclimatise himself to the cold conditions...although I notice the ice cream quantity is quickly going down.

Valentines day...and he's heard nothing from his girl...not a phone call, not a letter, she doesn't reply to his...all his dreams crashed around his tattered heart...he seeks solace...and hopes to forget....

True love...

They met through friends...found they shared a love of reading, banana daiquiris and just hanging around...Monkey at last has found LOVE 

After watching a documentary Monkey was obsessed with 'returning to the place of his birth'...he was eager to head to steamy jungles and exotic climes...I explained that his birth took place in a factory in China...now he sits forlornly in the tree fern and looks longingly to the East...

Bit of R and R...

Monkey soaked up a few rays yesterday...all set to work on his tan....

Hi ho hi ho it's off to work we go....

Monkey does love an outing to work...he insists he is the main attraction...loving the attention, the hugs and maulings from grubby little hands, the sloppy wet kisses from admiring toddlers...although there was that one time when he was monkey-napped, the little girl taking him away then stuffing him down her pants to hide him......he doesn't like to talk about that....

Flights of fancy...

m\Monkey attempts to teach the wooden ducks to fly---with tragic consequences...

Hopeful Monkey....

Monkey is hoping that one of the three remaining Christmas presents is for him...sadly it isn't so.
