Chuck ma baboon Safari

Hello dear Otto-ists. It's time for me to reveal some news. After my immensely pleasurable visit to Bath and Bristol, I was looking forward to gracing the latest edition of Patches with my presence. Lo and behold - I received an invitation from a certain Miss Happiness herself. And so, I'm off to Devon and beyond.
Beyond being South Africa. It pains me to disappoint you so re. Patches, but the wandering star I was born under is a particularly restless one.

Au revoir!

P.S. Do visit this excellent event http://www.facebook.com/events/246926825395370/?notif_t=event_invite & http://www.patchesmarket.com/

High Tea Beckons

I am packing my suitcase for Sunday's trip. What does a gentleman octopus need on holiday, especially if he's travelling to the land of Jane Austen and the Sally Lunn bun? I simply mustn't forget my bathing suit, toothbrush and eye-drops. My eyes get very dry indeed on airplanes, don't you know. My swimwear, in case you were wondering, is rather long and stripey. Very turn-of-the-century. Toodles! I'll be writing about my experiences overseas next week.

Vacanze Romane

You've probably never heard of me before, so here's a little background information. I was born in 2011 into a travel-loving family. My first taste of the wide world was Rome. Perched on the fountain at Piazza di Spagna, I felt quite full of myself when a South American gentleman spotted me and insisted on taking a photo with me. That was my first taste of notoriety. Fancy me; the topic of a conversation in a sleepy coffee shop in Uruguay. I loved it! I wanted more...

Jet-lagged but happy to be home, friends. I'll be writing some of my witty travel anecdotes here.

See you soon!

Otto
