Ok, as promised, here are some of the lovely pics Joe took yesterday with his swanky camera. I decided to make a story out of them. Enjoy!

Once upon a time, there lived a lass called Octavia. She is a normal and healthy person for sure. Except for one peculiar habit. She loves to dig for 'gold'.

This is ze best hobby ever!

Unfortunately, her disgusting habit had alienated people from getting close to her. The minute the conversation starts to get juicy, out came her pinkies to dig her nostrils ferociously. As such, poor Octavia was a lonely soul. Her benovalent (but rather ugly) Uncle and Aunt came to visit. They were appalled at the dismal state of her being.

"Don't you know that noses are not meant to be dug alone?" her uncle chided her.

Octavia gulped. "You mean, it's not just a solitary sport?"

"Heavens, no! No wonder you are miserable, girl. You need a nose digging partner. Just like how your uncle and I are to each other," her bubbly aunt said cheerfully.

The ugliest looking pair of Uncle and Aunty in the land. Yech.

At first, Octavia thought that they were quite mad.

Aiyo, I really have the craziest rellies ever!

But then, as loneliness continued to engulf her, she decided to send a prayer to the heavens. For a nose digging partner. Little did she know how soon her prayer was going to be answered.

Please send me someone, God. Anyone!!

The minute she heard the booming voice behind her, Octavia was thrilled!

Here I am to save the day!

But still, she needed to confirm that this was indeed a suitable 'gold' digging partner.

"Tell me your name and what you are here for?" she asked the cute girl in an interviewer-like manner. Her pinkies were firmly clasped down. She didn't want to unnecessarily traumatise an innocent stranger mar.

"I am Gracie," the girl introduced herself. And proceeded to say the sweetest words imaginable.

You dig my nose, I dig yours.

Octavia went straight to high heaven!

Welcome to my kingdom, dear fellow nose digger!

Then they proceeded to do what they do best.

Dig for 'gold'.

A match made in heaven
