Hello

My Name is Oscar.

I am an Octopus.

An octopus is described as either a bottom-living cephalopod having a soft oval body with eight long tentacles or as a eight-armed cephalopod lacking an internal shell.

I am a travelling octopus and I like to go to new and exciting places. I also love my keeper, Jo.

There is, however, a problem.

Jo is not a great traveller and while I love her, I don't love sitting at her desk in the city of London very much. Its especially boring at the weekends when I have no one to talk to. I am very grateful, therefore, to all of Jo's friends for taking me on their travels and letting me see the sights, sounds and breathing the fresh air in different parts of the world.

I'm setting this blog up to tell everyone about my travels, collect interesting ideas for future travels and perhaps, if you are a lady travelling octopus, you might like to tell me a bit more about yourself.

Anyway, thats enough about me and why Im here. Now its time to start telling you all about the wonderful places Ive been to.

Your friend,

Oscar

My friends took me to the pub

I posted some pictures here for you to look at. My friends Clare, Andrew, Matt and Craig took kme to the pub with them and my keeper, Jo for a drink this lunchtime. I liked it a lot. I think the pub was called the counting house and it was nice to get some fresh air even though I spent most of my time hiding from my keeper in someones pocket.

I hope you like my pictures.

This is me with a pint of beer. The urban dictonary describes a pint of beer as a decent sized amount of magic potion designed to make people of the opposite sex look better.

This is me in the pub. The urban dictionary describes a pub as 'A meeting place where people attempt to obtain advanced states of mental incompetance by the repeated consumption of fermented vegetables.' I think thats about right.

Here are some of my friends. At the back are Craig and Matt and at the front are Clare, Jo (the keeper), and Andrew. Jo (the Keeper) has her eyes shut for some reason. I think it must be some strange human condition. If anyone out there knows why, could you let me know?
