Hi Adam, hope you're all well.

I've been to a doctor and was told it's all tension. Nothing physical, thank GOD.

Thanks very much your concern Adam. :)

Regards to Wifey, and lots of love to Tidgy from Oli (not Kahn of course). :<3:
Hope the doctor has put your mind at rest Gillian,
I used to listen to some relaxation tapes to help me wind down.
It involved concentrating on your own breathing and counting backwards from 100.
I don't know what the rest of the tape said or if it worked - I always fell asleep before I counted down to 60!

A very quick visit to say Good Morning!

The trade show in London starts tomorrow. Last day of prep today. Most of yesterday I spent doing governor things - exclusion panels for another school and then a board meeting - so I have a lot of catching up today. My lists don't seem to be getting shorter!

Happy birthday @Lyn W if it's today! (You said something about going out for a meal!)
Good luck with the show Linda.
Thanks for the birthday wishes - it was on the 13th but this was the nearest date most could make it.
I enjoyed good company and a good meal.
No slaving over a hot popty ping for me tonight!

Hi Lyn, and thanks very much your question as well as your advise.
I can't say I'll relax withing 24 hours. I know about the tapes you mentioned. However, I'm not sure if they are available here. This is part of the "Third World" I'm afraid. I've tried playing with numbers so as to speak. But that does not work as easily as one may think.

How's Lola? Hope he's well. Believe it or not Oli is still wide awake and it's 1.40am here. GOD only knows why.

Hi Gillian, you may be able to find some relaxation techniques on YouTube - it seems to cover everything else from wart removal to DIY open heart surgery!!
Oli seems to have livened up considerably lately - Lola is OK - still suffering from the Winter blues I think but he is eating and out and about for a few hours a day. I haven't seen him today as he was still in his hide when I left this morning and I was home late today. I was going to drag him out for a soak but decided to leave him tonight. He'd eaten all his food so not worried about him. I don't like not seeing him though. I'll have a peep at him in then morning.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha!! Funniest thing I've watched today! I'm rolling on the floor and holding my sides. Stop - you're killin' me!

But on the serious side, Willow is very pretty. Do you know how old it is? That's a pretty nice place for a young tortoise. In the house at night, right?

True, one can find anything on the net. I'll give it a try.

Glad to know Lola is fine. Oli is eating relatively well. Butt the "funny" thing is that when it's cold he's wide awake, and when it's relatively warm, he falls asleep. Shouldn't things go the other round with torts, or am I mistaken?
