As some of you may know I lost my beloved Toni Poni a few months back leaving Charlie sad and lonely. I got a new bud a few weeks back called Basil who is just gorgeous and they have become firm friends.
I am away house/dog/cat/chicken sitting for a couple of weeks. Anyway my OH told me on the phone the other night that Charlie had gone missing. No windows open except up on 2nd floor where the buds never go and besides the door was pulled to. OH had looked behind things and under things but couldn't find him. I was so upset. Anyway 2 days later I get a text saying Charlie has been found. basil had been sitting on top of kitchen cupboards and was chatting to himself and my OH heard Charlie answer (thank you Basil) after some investigation OH climbed onto work surface and discovered lost bud had fallen down a gap between wall and top of cupboard. OH fished him out with a coat hanger and apart from tail feather loss, he is fine. I just feel sick at the thought my poor little bud could have not been discovered and died down there. Needless to say gap has been plugged. We didn't know about the gap as it is a rented flat.
despite the fact my little white bud maintains a total suspicion of me at all times I love him so much and am so happy he has been found.

I bet that really had you worried for a couple of days. So glad all is well now.
That could have ended so very badly. Let this be a lesson to anyone who thinks it will never happen to them.
