Dentist

Today Gus accompanied my Mum and me to our local dentist, for our twice yearly check-up.

When we went in we booked in, and went to wait in the waiting room. There were toys in there, but Gus wasn't interested in them. He was having a laugh at the pictures on the wall of awful British teeth!

When I went in for my appointment he waited nice and quietly whilst I talked to the dentist and nurse about me wanting to become a trainee Dental Nurse. Gus thought it was strange that I should want to become one as I'm slightly scared of dentists!

I introduced Gus to the dentist and explained about the swap process, and she kindly let Gus sit in the chair. He was a little scared of it and the bright over head light, but I promised he wouldn't be harmed...


We came home afterwards and as a treat watched some of my Supernatural Boxset that arrived today. He said he didn't like it as much as Red Dwarf, but it was good anyways :D

A scary, if not fun day!

Settling In

Gus has been relaxing at home for the first few days here in England - he's settled in quite nicely. Here's what he's been up to...


On Thursday he met my pet fish Sylar! Sylar loves having his picture taken so it wasn't a problem getting this photo! He and Gus talked for ages about the advantages and disadvantages of being a fish or a turkey :b


On Friday Gus helped me with some crocheting. I decided to make him a hat and scarf for when he goes back home to Oz. He chose the colours, and even had a go at crocheting himself! He did a good job!


That evening I introduced Gus to my fav programme of all time - Red Dwarf! It's a comedy set in deep space from about 15 years ago (old skool!!). Gus was rolling up, he said it was so funny! I think we're gonna be watching alot more Red Dwarf in the coming months!

I'm going to try and convince my parents to go on a road trip this weekend, as it's Bank Holiday. Weather permitting, that is. I think Gus will like our road trips, we go to some interesting places!
