The blog hasn’t been handed back yet…
I’m shamelessly plugging my friend’s work… it’s all about the breeding habits of penguins and an old study which was recently unearthed at the Natural History Museum in London. When my friend said he was looking for a dirty bird I didn’t realise this is what he meant!

It will be back over to Flo this week. Promise. No, really.
Oooh I say! It’s enough to make one blush… Will I ever be able to get rid of the image that the phrase “auto erotic behaviour of the penguins” conjoures up? Hehe!
I had not realized that Scott’s Antarctic Expedition had such a voyeuristic agenda
Neither had I… but it’s been firmly swept under the ice for many a year!
Dear Flo , I no how you feel. You can never depend in humans . Not penguins either or anthing that wears a tucksedo. At least I only eat dead tings. Love, your friend Georgia x
Hey Flo, Jet here.
Lost your post to raunchy penguins huh? Well, it is pretty cool that Mom’s friend rediscovered that journal.
