It’s the first BeastieBlog of 2021… Happy new year, everybody! And although this first week of January didn’t bring a whole lot of good news on the pandemic front, in some parts of the island of Ireland it did bring something a little unusual – SNOW!
And some of it fell in the back garden of a pair of familiar Beastie friends.
Paddy was up nice and early, so he spotted it first. And of course, the very next thing he did was…
… To go and wake up Plunkett.
Poor Plunkett. He was having a lovely dream about igneous rock formations.
“What IS it, Paddy?”
“SNOW! It’s been snowing, Plunkett! Get up get up get up!”
“Look at that!”
It really is rather lovely. And every window revealed a fresh, snow-dusted view.
But just looking at the snow was never going to be enough for Paddy. I think it’s time to head outside and play in it, don’t you?
It looks like he already has a project in mind, too. Look at him go!
“Ta-daaaaah!”
“It’s a SnowBeastie, Plunkett! What do you think?”
“I think it’s not quite finished yet… Hang on a sec!”
And with a few finishing touches from Plunkett…
Much better! It’s almost as cute as you are, boys.
“Almost!”
But even little woolly monsters start to feel the cold eventually. With their SnowBeastie finished, the lads decided it was time to head back indoors…
… And get toasty again by the stove!
So, how have you all been spending the first few days of 2021? Did you get any snow? Be sure to tell us all about it in the comments!
