I think that applies to all of us on here, though some may know more than others and some have more experience.
We just do the best we can.


when we had fido outside last week the kids from the other flats came over , as kids do... and were really curious. after telling them not to poke him, (they didn't :) ) and explaining his diet ... they went off on a hunt for dandies! ... came back with all sorts of grass and buttercups, bless. we said we couldn't feed as unsure about weed killer. they then disappeared, think i was being a boring old man :)

phone can be saved! don't try to turn on, put it in a bowl of dry rice... overkill, use a full bag! leave for 24hrs and in theory... it'll work :)

I get troops of kids coming to my door.
I give them a dirham (about 6 or 7 pence) per batch of greens and then chuck them, just in case.
Helps the local economy if nothing else.

hours can and have been lost reading on here. the pinned threads are great, however i do spend alot of time trawling through theads as well, learning from others experiences i do believe is a good way to go.

I really wish there was a 'tortoises for dummies' book I could get, or a collaboration of info... I'm really enjoying learning about them, but my knowledge is a drop in the ocean!
There IS a "Tortoises and Turtles For Dummies" book, which I purchased! I was not impressed at all- a lot of repetition and not enough species-specific details. Don't waste your money, is my thought. :p
