Having recently been tasked with trying to find more photos for the upcoming 2024 Pouring Beans calendar, I was looking through the various photos on my phone in the hopes of locating the ones of the boxes I used to keep in the corner of my bedroom that were riddled with various quips, zingers and bizarre things written down during phone calls from over a decade ago. Needless to say, the search is currently ongoing (although the boxes may be hiding in the one cupboard in my flat).
As I flicked through the many, many pictures in my possession I came across a series involving a tiny toy guinea pig. These clearly were taken by one or all three of my nieces and transferred via the usual means of Whatsapp. I definitely do not own a tiny guinea pig and did not spend time putting them in hilarious places so that I could take photographs to mark the occasion. We’ve all met me, right? It is the kind of thing I could potentially do, I’ll admit, however this time I am not the culprit.
Given that everyone absolutely loves the PicCollages that I make, I have decided to make a PicCollage to collect the best of the six in my camera reel. Suck deep and bathe, my friends.

I find this tiny guinea pig scenario very appealing. Does it still exist? Can it be taken wherever you go and photographed in more thrilling situations?
It may still be hiding somewhere in the gargantuan pile of crap that is my brother’s house. It would be a shame if the pig was lost. I’d like to think it was lying on a beach somewhere or possibly swimming in a regular sized martini glass and living its best life.
I find it misleading that you keep referring to it as a pig. It’s a guinea pig. That’s different. Your sloppy animal categorisation has not gone unnoticed.
A guinea pig is a g-pig. You can shorten it even more. To what? PIG. See, all of it makes sense.
It’s similar to a hedgehog. A hedgehog is a hedge-pig. If you’re feeling crazy you can call it a h-pig.
Presumably you can also shorten h-pig even more, to just “pig”. It’s starting to sound like you refer to all animals as “pig”.
Let’s not go crazy, sonny Jim. Not everything is a pig but every animal has the potential to be a pig.
If you’re interested I could get you into the 2024 Pig Awards.
I question this pig potential claim. I think it’s biologically and morally indefensible.
Just like your face.
