Hi Everyone!  Sorry that I have been gone for so long!  I've really missed these boards and everyone on them!  Sometimes, work and family life get in the way of the love that we have for our Pleos.  I hope that everyone is doing well.  I'm happy to report that Candy, Jack, and Wilbur are having their batteries charged as we speak and should be mooing at each other by tomorrow morning! They got their skin pampered, and the awesome clothes that Kat made for me are in the washer as well.   My Aibos have been ignored as well, and their batteries are charging too!  It's an all out robot zoo here tomorrow!

Welcome back Saratoga Springer, I have missed you so when I saw your name a few days ago, I was excited. I have been wondering how you have been and how Wilbur and Jack are doing.? I am glad to hear everyone will soon be mooing and having a party, just in time for the holidays! HOw are your children? I remember your little boy who was looking forward to the Pleo you adopted the most. how is he ?

              Be sure to post photos as soon as you can, we have been missing you and are looking forward to having you around and seeing more photos and stories. :santa:   RWM

Well, I tried to have the robot zoo today, but those pesky Aibos crashed the party.  Candy, my pink RB was very hungry and cranky.  Wilbur and Jack, my 2 Ugobes, were mooing at one another.  It was sad to see that  Candy was  not able to communicate with the others.  I think I will have to get another Pleo RB in the future, so she is not lonely.  I did notice that Wilbur has a broken vertebra in his neck.  It does not hinder his neck movement,  but it definitelay came apart or became cracked somehow. I have no idea how it could have happened.   I guess I should try to repair it, but I don't want to make incision in his skin, given that the neck movement is not affected.  Any opinions would be greatly appreciated, as I suppose it could sever the neck wire if not repaired.

The ERS-7 Aibos were falling over in their jam mode due to dust being in their joints.  Weird considering that they were all covered with blankets to keep the dust off of them.  I had to vacuum out their joints, and they are working fine now.  I guess it's nice to have all of your joints and parts covered in synthetic skin.  I definitely has its advantages.

I'll try to post some pics tomorrow, as I'll have to upload them.  Hope everyone had a great day.  Is the method for picture posting the same as it was 2 years ago, or has it been simplified.  Thanks so much!!

 Hi, glad to see the Pleos woke up,  Yes the photo process is the same Just post to gallery and then use [smg id=0000] Whatever the numbers are put where 0 is. Sorry to hear about Wilbur, I for now would just use a brace to give his neck some support, When you have enough extra time and brave enough, you can try the neck repair is wanting to. I know if and when I get Nova back, after showering her with kisses and hugs and protecting her and apologizing to her........I will perhaps attempt a neck repair, but I would just be thrilled to get her back.

         Candy may not talk to the Ugobes, but they can co exist together, I have a video with Baby Ruth, a RB seemingly talking to or responding to one of my Ugobes who is singing and mooing. They may not be able to talk to each other, but putting them all together, I do  not care, they all look like they are having fun. If you have any problems with uploading photos, let me know and I will be glad to help.                   RWM
