COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

I took the little man to our local nursery and they have a really cool train with miniatures all around and little ponds with fish. It’s huge, you can walk around and stop to watch the trains.

Oh, I enjoy miniature railroads! Especially the Garden scale ones. I know G scale isn't uniform, but it looks like so much more fun the play with, and it stands out much better outside.

Somewhere in the back of my mind is a thought that dared to whisper... "Do you think there could be a Turtle scale railroad?"

Oh dear... I think I keep making more work for Linda... I keep tagging @JoesMum in the Introduction threads from new tortoise keepers in the UK! [emoji14]

I am sure Linda doesn't mind.

[emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji33] ding ding ding. And Linda is in corner on the right and at 6ft will be going against Carol at 5ft. I think on arm reach alone Linda might give Carol a bit of a hard time. However don't write Carol off just yet as she can easily manage to slip in here and there under Linda's arms.

Hahahaha! I missed this post yesterday. [emoji85][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Not really practical with the amount of travelling we do

You could get one of those dogs you could carry in your purse.
I’m sure the cats will die of laughing too hard...

 

[Kristoff]

Right I forgot about that. Then as soon as they bring out robot dogs you can get one of those.

The ones with laser guns?

Dunno how much of a greater demand there is.... yes, ppl do purchase as salad greens but it’s just one of a large variety of available greens. Only the greens are sold - nice bundles - but Sully does love the flowers of course.

I may have seen this or a similar video — all the dandelions disappear in under two minutes! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

When my tortoises had been outdoors this summer they found very old dog poop that I haven`t seen. I think they smell it.

There was no dog poop in my garden, but Elsa would dig out cat poop that I think had been hidden there since before we bought the house! Really gross! [emoji23]

One of our friends sent this the other day...it only really works if you have already had your birthday this year...it didnt work for me or wifey.

Of course it works. It’s basic maths! Add your age to the year you were born and you get this year ... or subtract your year of birth from this year to get your age.

There’s nothing special about this. It happens every year... actually it only truly accurate December 31 due to people’s birth dates.

We should really try that the wool spider ( if she exist ) will cooperate with us. She could knit useful things like bags

or funny animals

Bee, we had roommates who tried to get closer to the Wool Spider, and where are they now? Even the recent cases of @DE42 - he was so brave to go into the catacombs, and @Tidgy’s Dad, who woke up with wool underwear after your flying adventure. Please please listen to me: don’t do it!

I don't know if any of you are familiar with Publix or not, but I've seen bundles of dandelion greens, a couple different varieties, I think.

Publix is a grocery store / supermarket chain based in Florida. They don't have a housewares section where you could by linens or towels, they focus on food, and they do it well. For a UK reference, Publix can go toe-to-toe (or head-to-head) with Tesco, any day.

Tesco doesn’t stock Dandelion Greens. In fact, due to financial problems, it’s range is very barrow these days. It never was good on “exotics” anyway. None of the UK supermarkets is.

Lmao!! Not MY wedding... just a wedding [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Phew. I thought I missed your special day.

Oh dear... I think I keep making more work for Linda... I keep tagging @JoesMum in the Introduction threads from new tortoise keepers in the UK!

Can you ask them to PM me for attention in their thread? I don’t get the tag notifications. I won’t respond in PMs... I go looking for the thread

 

[JoesMum]

Lol. Just add your age this year and then do it. Or your age you will be in December that is. [emoji3]

Snap!

 

[Kristoff]

Stop it!! You’ve brought tears to my eyes.. dang emotions [emoji68]‍[emoji66]

Sorry. I’ll be there in a few years... [emoji173]️

 

[JoesMum]

Good morning all. It’s damp and gloomy this morning. I have another day of chores ahead... and I also need to get some stuff on eBay to sell.

 

[Kristoff]
