I didn't worry too much about the theme of My Toothbrush, I mean how hard could that be?
Indulging in an exuberant mood I swaggered into the bathroom this morning with my camera at the ready.
I was shocked to interrupted a toothpaste robbery. Despite this I held on to my nerves, bit my tongue, and quickly photographed the thieves.
I'm still feeling shaken, and my delicate sensibilities are tottering, so please be gentle with me.

Nice to know your furry
Nice to know your furry friends are concerned with oral hygiene. Those beavers have to keep their little choppers white, don't they.

Home invasion is always a traumatic experience. Especially when you catch the low-lifes in the act. You showed plenty of fortitude in standing your ground with the camera Mo. Good show old bean.

It seems like if there is one thing I've learned about you during these last 26 days is that you're always interrupting something. ;) I can't wait to see what you interrupt tomorrow.

I'm not sure what's going on here, but clearly the bunny keeping watch in the foreground has not alerted the others of the photographer.

I knew things would take a bad turn when that pesky raccoon got involved! He has fingers and can pilfer the toothpaste quite nicely!
You guys really hate raccoons
You guys really hate raccoons don't you!
I can totally understand why
I can totally understand why thieving beavers and rabbits would be interested in toothpaste. It's good for polishing the stolen silver.
Which leads me to a question, Mo. In my family, which is half-British on my mother's side, there was always a lot of discussion -- an inordinate amount, really -- about the theft of silver. As if stealing silver is a British hobby and something that one must constantly guard against. Have you also found that to be the case?
A British hobby? I've never
A British hobby? I've never owned OR stolen silver. Wait, we have some candlesticks that might be slightly silver. I'm going to nick 'em...
Toothpaste is good for everything - but it ruins jeans, and is a pain to scrape off a tie.
I've that stupid tie
I've that stupid tie-toothpaste thing so many times I finally decided to stop wearing them except in emergencies.
And I'm not kidding about the silver. It was a BIG deal in my family, especially when I lived in London. It's always stuck in my head: Oh, they might take the silver! Best hide it!
Thanks for the advise. Silver
Thanks for the advise. Silver has been hidden.
