COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

So far so good! I’m really proud of my daughter.. she’s taking them very serious!

Oh, they’re too young Kudos for your daughter!

 

[Kristoff]

I wanted to leave y’all with the progress on my “Tortoise Garden”.. Goodnight all! Sleep well [emoji42]

They’ll love that swing! [emoji12]
Looking good! I can already see you relaxing there as they go about their tort business.

 

[Kristoff]

Good night all!

Good night, Yvonne!

Good morning all.


Cute overload with Heather’s daughter’s charges. What are they again? I can’t find the post.

Mark’s figs look delicious. When we went to France last summer there was a tree in the garden of the house we rented and we ate a lot!

JoesDad and I are off to do a spot of bird-watching at a new (to us) nature reserve. I need to have a chat with my cleaner first; she is due imminently!

 

[Lyn W]

I could post you a tree.
Probably a bit expensive, though.

Send it via Parcelforce
I believe they have branches everywhere.

That's lovely - she's a natural substitute Mum !

That looks great and the tortoise in the middle looks very happy with it!

Good morning all,
It's been a soggy start here but still needed after the dry spell so not complaining.
Lola is still in bed so just about to get him up for his soak.
I think we may have to visit the vet again if he doesn't perk up again by Monday, just to be on the safe side.
Have a good Wednesday and I'll catch you later!

Hello all, how have you been?
Since discovering how bad straw is for a tortoise, I've done away with it although Merlin doesn't exactly seem to be digging it (pun intended) I'll post some pictures of the new setup but he seems to wander elsewhere to sleep and doesn't exactly do much burrowing? I've just used soil as a softer sleeping substrate; any ideas?

The bedding Merlin has and him in his wild plants feeding place thingy

Good mornooning, roommates! I’m feeling refreshed this morning. About to finish my cup of coffee and do a few chores. Wishing everyone a terrific Tuesday!

Thank goodness it is Wednesday for me. Except this week seems to be taking ages.

 

[CarolM]

Good morning everyone. I was delighted to see that @Laura1412 and @DE42 popped in to the CDR in thr last 24 hours. I am sorry I missed you both.

As I write this, some sort of incident is unfolding outside the Houses of Parliament in London. The police are reacting as if it is terrorist related; fingers crossed that it isn't. Whatever, JoesDad and I are heading into the city ... to Westminster... this evening. Life goes regardless as usual.

I hope it wasn't anything serious. And that Wesminster was fun.

 

[CarolM]

Good morning, Carol!
You have a Terrific Tuesday Too.

Good Morning Adam, Sorry did not manage to come back yesterday but I can spend a few minutes today catching up. I hope your Tuesday was a good one and that you get the biggest potatoe on your potatoe run (i.e. if you are doing one.)

 

[CarolM]

Good morning, Roommates!
Got to buy a potato and then more sorting of books and some fossil stuff.
Should be a nice relaxing day.

Oops, I see that you did your run yesterday already.

 

[CarolM]

Hi Carol yes autumn is on its way to UK .
The trees have been shedding their leaves for a while because it has been so dry they obviously didn't have enough moisture to hang onto them longer.
I love Spring and Autumn!
Have a good day!

You too Lyn. Are you behaving yourself today?

 

[CarolM]

They have fallen out with the other neighbours on their other side too - as well as several others - but they just give each other a wide berth. The other people don't have to share a lane access with them so they can easily avoid them, and they are quiet people who don't like to get speak out. I tell the other neighbours what's going on but never expect them to get involved unless they offer.
I get the brunt of it because I am an easy target - living alone and they know I don't make a fuss uness I really have so they have got away with quite a lot over the years.

 

[CarolM]

Good morning all.
Caught up with you after several telephone interruptions last night.
The Housing Association have been in touch re NFH and are referring the matter to their Nuisance team.
I hope they go around next door and make a real nuisance of themselves.
They are also sending someone who deals with fencing and boundaries.
So hopefully that will be resolved too and they will not only put the fence back up but box them in completely!!!
Hope everyone is having a good day so far.
I'll not see you later

Well that sound much more optimisitic. As they have responded to you alot quicker than that PO did. I really hope that they can sort it out pronto. Holding thumbs for you.

 

[CarolM]

G'Day to all!

Hi ya!! (Waves Hand) + (with a smile on face!!)

 

[CarolM]

Neighbors brought me some new foster children last night. 3 brand new cat squirrels came down with a tree and one didn’t survive the fall. These two are critical and I don’t give them good odds but they at least have a chance. They had a good night in steady temps. They both ate well and peed n pood so you never know!!

Oh Shame, poor things. I hope they make it.
