COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

And Lena takes the lead.

Good Morning All
It is 06.30 over here. I am getting started on the laundry early today in the hopes of being finished before Father's day celebrations begin. I hope all the great Dads out there ( including Tort Dads) have an awesome day.
Not chat later.

Hey Lena. I thought you are in bed ???? Saw you lurking out of your corner. SNAP !!!!

I’ve been lurking these couple of days. We hosted daughter’s birthday at the Copenhagen zoo. Didn’t lose any monkeys, but I was out for the rest of the day. Will try to step out of my corner now.

It's 10:30 here. Hubby has fallen asleep in his recliner hehehe, so I'm popping in for a bit.
I did laundry this morning. And then the sun came out! Clunker enjoyed it of course.
I gathered up a bunch of tort food today for a lady who lives pretty close to me. Kind of excited to get to meet a fellow forum member! Just hope I'm able to be helpful and get her tort perked up.

One time some guy gave me some candy and next thing I knew I was riding on a magic dragon. Santa Claus the Easter bunny and all my favorite friends were there too. It was one crazy night

Thankfully there’re no candies in the CDR...

 

[Kristoff]

Hope everyone is enjoying or has enjoyed their Friday. Took some time to explore a very large reservoir in our area...no shortages here.

Good morning all.

Daughter returned home last night and she and Son are off on their travels. JoesDad just took them to the airport.

They’re flying to Bergen and spending a week in Norway, finishing in Oslo. Daughter returns to the UK at this point and then spends the next couple of weeks touring Scandinavia finishing in Finland where a friend of his lives.

Let’s see if they catch the same glorious weather you did

 

[Kristoff]

Good Morning all. Hope you have an awesome Saturday. AND A Very Happy Birthday to Lena's Daughter. I hope the party goes really well.

Thank you! It went smoothly enough

Me too. And have fun.

Daughter is appalling. I swear she chose her degree (joint honours geography and environmental biology) based on the travel opportunities. She did field trips to Spain, Croatia and China... as well as many UK field trips.

She has travelled solo to South Africa, Tanzania and Canada to join conservation/environment projects and finished the 3 months on Canada with a month touring the USA (she joined a tour group, but had a few days alone in LA and NYC at each end)

We weren't surprised when she landed a job that wasn't local. We were surprised that it was actually in this country [emoji849]

Son is (was?) more reluctant to travel alone. JoesDad and I pretty much had to force him to go the USA last year to join a similar tour to the one his sister had done. Anyway he did it and, to our surprise, came up with the plans for this Scandinavia trip completely unprompted.

What was that saying about the apple and the tree?

 

[Kristoff]

Check out "Snap" in his new home, he seems to be enjoying it

I’d swim in there too! He’s so cute!

 

[Kristoff]

I think I found Snap a friend this morning

Might of found Snap a Tankmate this morning too

Are they OK in pairs?

 

[Kristoff]

I saw on your other thread. Love it. It almost makes me want to get a turtle too. And is Snap his name now . If it is I like it. [emoji3]

Ditto. On everything.

 

[Bambam1989]

Don't stand under them or an apple might hit you in the head?

 

[Kristoff]

Hi Linda, it seems to me that your whole family has the travel bug....

Stay away from Linda’s corner in the CDR. It might be contagious!

 

[Kristoff]

Iceland hold for a draw against Argentina

And now we have switched channels for the Rugby: South Africa V England...

Carol and I in supporting opposition

Lol. We switched channels as well. [emoji3]

May the strongest team win..?

 

[CarolM]

Don't stand under them or an apple might hit you in the head?

Or someone might be shooting it with a bow and arrow?

 

[Kristoff]

Whahaha. Its okay. We thought we would let you get a few points in before we take the game.[emoji6] Although we maybe just end up watching boxing instead of rugby by the looks of it.

As long as no one is boxing each other in the CDR...

 

[CarolM]

As long as no one is boxing each other in the CDR...

Nope we don't box in the CDR. We throw Tort poop!![emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji90]
