Purpule Poirot: baby flying-fox has a pedicure

I apologise for not wearing gloves in this video; I wasn't intending on handling the bat, just putting purple paint on his toes while he was wrapped up, but it was so funny I got Maggie to video it. Enjoy Purpule Poirot, (pronounced PerpYOOL), having just had his pedi so Maggie could identify which teats and dummies and bottles go with which baby. Every time I blew on his toes to hasten the drying time, he stretched them all out; it doesn't take much to entertain a Meg and Maggie. It's only a short clip but it has taken me about 3 hours to edit (including a huge frustration factor). The new software is a total bastard to use; I expect I will improve, but I completely loathe this program as it stands. Purpule's name came indirectly from Maggie, who pronounced his purple teat to be perpYOOL and called him purple boy. My brain just totally did a flip and went to Poirot, so he became Purpule Poirot (after the famous detective from Agatha Christie's murder mysteries, Hercule Poirot). Videos from now will be random but new footage, according to my available time and frustration level. Tolga Bat Hospital takes donations for our batties. Tolga is an awesome place in Far North Queensland, which has charity status. By sending donations to them, they get a percentage (and deserve every cent) and they can allocate money to me for batty expenses without it becoming part of my income stream (which makes tax time difficult). https://tolgabathospital.org/donate/ Mention Megabattie or Meg in the PayPal message box and the money will find its way to me. If no message box appears, please email Jenny to tell her that the money is for me. IMPORTANT: If you pay through the PayPal Giving Fund, can you please email Jenny with the AMOUNT DONATED and the name under which you have donated, OR just forward along the PP receipt. The Giving Fund doesn’t charge any fees (so the bats get more money) but PP doesn’t itemise out the amount, they just send a total every month, and we don’t know if the money is for Tolga or for Megabattie. Here’s Jenny’s email. [email protected]
