Bongo Fury Jan Van Vliet :*(

I lost my lovely girl Jan last Friday I've not been able to post until now, with time being a bit on the spare side, and also with her being such an oddball. We never got on that well :*) she was a fab girl, and she never had a bite in her, but she really wasn't overly fussy on me... the exact opposite of her siblings Don and Pea. She would scream and wriggle if we picked her up, and generally look really angry! She was a sweet girl towards the end though... well, sweeter! She would sit quietly for a cuddle for a few moments before darting off. I think at the last it was respiratory stuff that got her... and she'd have been 2 very soon too :*(

Jan was a beautiful girl, gorgeous big eyes and a soft velvet coat. She was a great friend to Pea too - and the two were hardly apart except for when Pea had her lump removed. Jan moped over her terribly then I will miss her so much, despite her silly, melodramatic antics <3 She was a gorgeous girl, and full of spark

Run free lovely old lady - go and find your family and friends.







And for her - The Pogues - My Baby's Gone:

You got to weep,
You got to wail,
You got to drag yourself on hands and knees bleeding,
Another mile along the trail,
You got to laugh in the face of the devil,
When he's hanging on to your shirt tail,
You got to hold down the lid of the coffin,
And hammer in the last nail.

My baby's gone so far away,
She's never coming back to me.

You got to live,
You got to learn,
How to find your way to the end of the night,
When there's nowhere left to turn,
How to keep the last embers of the fire alight,
When there's nothing left to burn,
How to say goodbye to the ashes that fly,
From the cheap metal urn.

My baby's gone so far away,
She's never coming back to me.

She said go to sleep,
You got to save,
Your anger and rage for the living,
'Cause they're no damn good in the grave,
And don't waste your time in forgiving,
The ones who just don't know how to behave,
There's heaven and hell in the world that you live in,
But I'm in a different place.

My baby's gone so far away,
She's never coming back to me.

What a gorgeous girl. I am so sorry to hear shes passed. x

Poor girl I don't remember her, though I'm sure I must've met her. when it comes to the quiet ones it's difficult to know what to say I know she will be equally missed as the boisterous characters and snuggle bunnies She had a lovely life with you. Sleep tight pretty girl

Katherine, you remember my three squeaky grumpy girls who could be handled but would kick up a huge fuss and struggle and squeal? They all lived together? Well - she was the last of them the other two were Valarie and Bea, and they passed away some time ago now.

Aw I do remember her *hug*
