Monkey Business

What a crazy few hours we've just had! on the way back from Fethiye, I
slammed on the brakes to avoid hitting what I at first though was a cat
on the kanal bank, now ,our little car has a full length Webasto
sunroof, and the next thing I know, I've got a bloody MONKEY in the
car, (came through the open roof), and Loz screaming blue bloody murder
at me, to "get that bloody thing out of the car"

!

It was quite happily sitting on the rear seat, until we turned into our
driveway, when it leapt out, had a hug at Loz's leg, then proceeded to
do what monkeys do, climbed all over the house, our neighbours house,
up every tree in our gardens. All our Turkish neighbours and their kids
were trying to catch the little beggar, uh, uh, TOO DAMN SMART for
that. Loz ended up hand feeding apples to him,and had him climbing on
to her head and giving her a good old scratch.
After a couple of
hours, a young Turkish couple arrived, the lady, with a huge smile on
her face, called out "Pasha", whereupon the monkey ran straight to her,
and jumped up and tucked himself DOWN HER JUMPER!

Hmmm,I wonder. Anyway, alls well that ends well, at least it looked as if he was quite happy to see his owners.

OMG! Spent ages looking for wild tortoises which I was told about - but beginning to think it was a wind-up - and on my last visit saw about 20 in one day! Very Happy
