[144 Grandpa Turtle]

good mornooning all finally recovered from Saturdays shinanagins! never again until the next time.

Good morning CDR

I'm still a bit weirded out by being home. Not sure of the day of the week and not particularly inclined to do anything, but I must as I have much to catch up on.

Mum sounded bright when I rang her last night. My sister has confirmed this. Today they're trying to get things with her doctor. Mum needs referral to a specialist to see if they can get to the cause of this. She had this problem before Christmas last year and refused to see one then. This time she has agreed.

Sounds like my guess at the reason for your disappearance wasn't too wide of the mark No pain no gain as they say

Morning all How is everyone this fine day?

 

[Marinated mamma]

Hm.
Read on, Macduff.
Expense doesn't put people off here.
They will spend no money on a pet other than a couple of quid for the initial purchase.
Feed them all scraps and let cats and dogs forage in the streets at night.

That's not cool! I have two cats (pampered princesses) and my neighbour has nine not last Christmas but the one before one of hers came in my kitchen through the cat flap while we was opening presents and ate my turkey I was not impressed!

As usual, gone for a few days and…424 posts to catch up on here in the CDR! So I'll say and I shall not tell a lie, I'm so not gonna even try to catch up on the posts I've missed. Those who've posted, please don't take it personal or anything like that. I'm just lazy and I don't much feel like catching up on all the back pages. If I've missed something important or traumatic concerning those I care for, please PM me so I'll know, okay? Thanks.
Today I had the job interview. As was expected, the interviewer and I got along swell. Last more than an hour and it was all business no football. At the end, he assured me that he was going to place me at the top of his recommendation list for hiring and he felt confident that I'd be taking on with the final company.
All of this was a very solid boost for my ego and feelings of self worth. This was my first job interview in over a year. I haven't had a job since July 30 2015. I so happy to have that under my belt and I'm so relieved knowing I've still got it in me.

I bought a grape vine for Lola last summer - it's grown back really well after winter. However no grapes yet and Lola won't eat the leaves either!

Unless you bought a self cultivating type, you need both a male and a female grape vine to get grapes.

Morning, mamma.

Good news, Ken. Fingers crossed for you.

Looking into getting my tortoises insured been quoted £18 per month for my three with up to £2500 vets fees cover is this good? Sounded pretty good to me but I've only ever been able to insure my cats before

In 46 years of tort ownership we have only had to go to the vet about 6 times and they were over a single 12 month period. Total cost was about £500.

Honestly, save some money in a separate bank account for the torts if you must, but don't get insurance. You are just paying money out for no reason.

It sounds very fair.
As I know first hand, tortoise vet bills can quickly get out of control.

That's not cool! I have two cats (pampered Princes) I was not impressed!

Have you read my fun story of my two(2) boys bring in critters through the cat door? I'll come home to find piles of feathers all around the livingroom floor? Or the small field critters played with and then left alone to hide in the couch while the cat goes out hunting more? Or the snakes cruising across the floor? Or my favorite was seeing, "in the corner my eye" the chipmunk scampering across the kitchen counter? Good times all, yes indeed. And think how dullsville our lives would be without them. Her is Baxter, my best buddy and this is Nigel watching TV while on MY BED using MY PILLOWS!!

Are there stipulations attached to it such as limited vetinerians approved to be used or annual exams that will need to take place?
