COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

How lovely! Where are you thinking of going this time?
I wish I had someone near me to look after Lola for a couple of days, so I could go away.
I will have to see if the tort vets near Cardiff takes them in for holidays,
although I would much prefer it if Lola could stay in his usual home.
I suppose if he was going to have to go somewhere else it would prob be better to take him with me.
At least I would know he was getting the correct food etc. and not have to worry about cross infection from
a pokey cage/tank.

It's tricky, isn't it?
I can't really leave her for more than four or five days, it's not fair on Zacariah who lives in the New Town and has university at this time of year.
Maybe, Portugal, not sure yet.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

What a treat!
I picked another big bunch for Lola today when I was out walking the dog.
My sister rang me last week and was quite excited that she had found loads of very healthy looking ones
off the beaten track so I've been going there. Not very handy for me but better than shop bought greens
- have to grab them while I can!

I'll have to go hunting on Monday, if not it's tops of root veg and stuff, which i get for free from a local costermonger.
Have prickly pear, too, so it's not too bad.

Great that should be lovely at this time of year.
I think Zac was on the forum yesterday - or maybe Monday?
Recognised his user name in 'members online'
Shame he's busy
No chance of me borrowing him to tort sit then?

Sadly, it's almost impossible for Moroccan's to get visas to Europe, especially the UK, or I'm sure he'd be delighted to help!
He pops on to peek sometimes, but usually PMs me.
Didn't this time.

Lola also enjoyed some Bok Choy leaves yesterday too.
They were reduced in the shop.

Maybe he could see you weren't online or maybe he was just admiring your calendar girl!

 

[Lyn W]

Have you ordered your calendar yet?
I have emailed Josh re shipping costs

Can't get anything that exotic here, not even bagged mixed salad or greens.
Supermarkets are pretty basic, not even a lot of tinned goods.

Me, too.
pepsiandjac reported postage was $15 to the UK, presumably for 1 calendar.

Don't know what that is in £ and p - will have to find a conversion site - but its all for a good cause anyway.

 

[Lyn W]

oh, bit more accurate!

Not far off a tenner!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Not far off a tenner!

it's easy at the moment, the pounds worth about a dollar and a half.

Thanks,
I cheated and used a conversion site.

Fudge is telling me it's bed time now.
She is whimpering and wandering between me and the hallway
where she looks upstairs, comes back and looks around to the stairs again.
She's just like Lassie!
"What's that Fudge?
You want me to follow you upstairs and go to bed?"

So I'd better go as I'm sure she'll have me up early tomorrow as well.
Night night Adam and anyone else yet to return or arrive.
Take care and speak to you soon.
