Description

Where did they come from and where are they going?

We had three Lismore frogs (Fiona Longlegs, Blake Frog, and Frog4T) stay withus as part of their froggy journey. When we  went to bed they were happily settled into their box. When I woke up I found this in my kitchen!

Somehow they found their way into the liquor cabinet, the wine rack, and beer fridge not to mention, worst of all,  finding the chocolate stash! Judging from the low tide in the bourbon and Bundy bottles it must have been a 'good' night, and I am surprised I didn't hear the carry on.

 

The most surprising thing was the appearance of three baby frogs. Now our house is locked at night, and we have security screens on all open windows. So how did they get there? I asked our guests and they remained tight lipped and the ant wasn't saying a thing. The three frogs, which I named 'the Triplets' weren't sure either. Should this be made into a warning video about the effects of frogs and alcohol?

So what to do with these guys? Fiona, who even though seemed to be the most maternal of the three, suggested that at their stage of development they should be quite capable of looking after themselves. Blake Frog, offered the idea that they might like to join the frog race and go travelling. The Triplets seems quite excited about this. Frog4T said nothing, I think he is trying to cope with his hangover.

  

   Therefore, we present to you "The Triplets", perhaps the smallest competitors in the race. Please keep them together, although not necessarily physically touching. Since they are too small to support a log book, you will need to keep track of them on this webpage.

Evidence seems to suggest they are gone. Sad

Farewell my froggies. RibbitRibbitRibbit

I had a look for this one today... I am pretty sure I was in the right place as I had been here before, but no wee little frogs were to be found Sad Am hoping that someone else picked them up before me but just hasn't logged them yet?? I was hoping to re-unite them with Frog4T but it wasn't meant to be Sad

Dropped the triplets off close to a nice little creek, though it's a bit messy. Reminds me of that Roger Hargeaves book.

The triplets were driving me mad with their non-stop chattering so I dropped them off near a pool. Hope the have a Cool Dip.

I have dropped the little guys off near "Dude Where's My Car?" (very close actually) and they can hang out there for a while.

Not a huge move but at least they have escaped Nerang. (sorry, no more picking on the Nerangatangs.... I swear)

TFTMC petan. Nice one.

You turn your back for a moment and frogs start invading the Gold Coast. RibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbitRibbit

These little guys were hiding near the Nerang velodrome thingie. The lycra clad bike enthusiasts were out and about zooming around as I grabbed the little fellows and retreated down the slope.

TFTMC petan. Will find them a new hiding spot soon.

First we had the photos of the triplets with another three frogs;
then it was off to a racing venue - the Gold Coast Cycling Centre at Nerang. They're on the fence, ready to watch when some time trials start. Some other moving caches are nearby if you feel inclined to grab them too. RibbitRibbitRibbit

Got 'em! They were there alright. We went into the famous pie shop and they said they would share a pie. A friendly muggle let them pose on top of his pie box. Then a lovely lady muggle let them sample her chips. After that the triplets were ready to rock. Tomorrow we have to visit my GC "Three frogs and a dog" which they seemed to think was named specially for them. They have agreed to turn up there for a photo op in the morning.

Oh dear, some frogs I could have snaffled but have to do cross training at 6am. Why you ask am I logging this at 3am? Because right next door there's a party like the one the frogs had in petan's kitchen.If no one gets the froggies before I can get there, I'll take them for some Correctional Behaviour Modification. Frog on, little ones!

Embarassed Oh dear! I had thought that Fiona was much more cultured than this and that Blake was too young to be getting into this sort of trouble. Perhaps it is the evil influence of that evil ant! I certainly hope that all is not as bad as it looks. Perhaps it would be wise to split the three big ones up and hope that their behaviour improves.

Frogs said they were hungry at the start of their journey. So left them waiting for a pie.
