Ah Fred, I see you met up with that wild woman in Oakland...or at least her blouse. This is turning out to be more of an adventure than you thought! ;-)

You're lookin' good though! Someone is taking very good care of you.

Big hugs,
Diana xoxoxo

I love this pic! Only problem is now I have this song stuck on mental repeat and it goes like this... "The women tear their blouses off and The Monkey dances on the polka dots". :D

Thanks for posting this, and the rest, too.

Gosh, I sure hope you have many more exciting adventures (ala Oakland polka dots) in your future, Fred. Don't even think it - the blouse will not fit you and anyway, you know it is not a good color for you, the green polka dots will clash with all your fur. We prefer 'to see you naked in your body' :lol: .

Loving regards,
Mary

Hey Fred :D
Careful now, don't let those polka dots dazzle and distract ya. You've got a long tour ahead of ya. And watch out for that 100 year old woman in the tight clothes, she likes to monkey around. :D :D

GOOD ON YOU, too, You Great Giftors!!!

Such a wonderful and unexpected turn in Leonard's worldwide tour :D . This man and his group are awesome... as are those who came up with these perfect gifts.

Obviously male, but the hand does not belong to either Leonard or Javier. It could be one of the other band members, although I don't think Dino wears a silver band like that. The shading/coloring in the latest photo makes me think it could be one of the crew who we only see briefly and is well-known for his photos. But in a way I don't want to know (at least until the end) because it's giving Fred a character of his own! :D

Oh, Monkey! I'm glad you like my blouse. I wonder if you are as cute as your photographer :D . (I have a suspicion who it is but I rather like not knowing too!)

Have fun at Coachella. If you feel sleepy during your travels, wrap yourself in polka dots and take a nice nap.

I think Dino is holding Fred, look at the manly watch and strong hairy arm, and possibly Sharon is taking the pictures. Who ever it is please don't stop I am so looking forward to Fred's next post.

p.s. Fred I hope we will meet in Belfast, do you think row 3 is too far back to place a small gift on stage, perhaps a little cushion for you sit on or maybe something to match the pencil case I made for your master, wonder if he uses it, maybe you could find out?

He looks such a happy feller... like he belongs on that stage... just goin' along, doin' his part.

Looking at that kind of 'bikey link' on his wrist and slightly hairy hand, you may be right that it's Dino's. If your photo shows more than that, I guess I need to look at the photos from home, as my work connection seems to cut them off.

My guesses are:

(a) A Webb Sister
(b) The 'wonderful person' who looks after The Hats

Whoever it is, it's a charming idea. The minkie's much, much cuter (and travels in much, much better company) than the garden gnome.

Way to go Mary B!
