Can Bookmunchers blow the vuvuzela and other questions

Staring at the bookmunchers for hours running around the chamber in a peudo-random pattern like little submarines in Brownian Motion, has resulted in a few questions floating around inside my head:


1.  Can bookmunchers make squeakly sounds, say when they're eating or having sex?

2.  Do bookmunchers change colour?  For example, does the amount of light affact their colour?

3.  Who would win an extreme fighting duel between a bookmuncher and an ant?

4. Can bookmunchers blow the vuvuzela?

Down with bookmunchers!

Solidarity with student protesters ...

I think the bookmunchers are very sad that we’re moving, and that they’re coming out in force to protest … a bit like the students in London recently .. they should have been hidden in dark damp corners munching their books instead they were out causing havoc.  So into the observation chamber SIX bookmunchers went today, much like a whole bunch of “student protesters” got dumped into jail.  Population of Bookmuncher Observation Chamber: 25

Record!!!

An all-time record … 5 bookmunchers captured in one day.  All 5 were found in the study, cuddling under a book, or basking between pages of a magazine or crouched in the corner of a shelf.  One did get away from me … it ran in the gap between the skirting and the carpet … I spent hours hacking away at the skirting, then the carpet, then the wall to find the darn thing … but no luck.  Have had to prevent my wife from going into the study ever since .. until I can get some chaps out to repair all the damage.  Damn bookmunchers … they’ll pay!  Total BM population now stands at 19.

Bookmuncher Sex

Added a tiny bookmuncher to the chamber.  Stark evidence of the fact that the BMs are reproducing in the library, imagine, they’re having sex on copies of Homer’s The Odyssey and John Masefield’s The Everlasting Mercy.  Shocking!!
