Hm--m-m, let's see . . . a zebra and a leopard in a cage, a group of preserved animals in glass jars (in a cage), a rabbit and a lettuce leaf (and maybe a Tidgy hiding behind the leaf), and in a cage, two birds in a cage and last but not least, a pink ant eater/elephant thingey. Ok, my guess is a strange zoo/museum.

I like how Mr. Adam and Mrs. Wifey are clothed to match the clothing in the original pictures (in the book). Your attention to detail, and great over-acting are very interesting, funny, entertaining. Keep up the good work!!!!!

That is a Clanger.

The Clangers was a stop-motion animation shown on 1970s children's tv. They lived with the Soup Dragon, Froglets and the Iron Chicken on an unidentified bare-rock planet.

I loved to watch it :)

Points for the zebra and the snow leopard ( a CDR member herself), point for the lettuce, point for the two birds, point for the rabbit.

Good morning, Linda!:)

But what's she pretending to be ?

It took him two days to visit each pet-shop and choose his tortoises. He wanted a great many, at least one hundred, perhaps more. And he needed to choose them very carefully.
To you and me there is a great deal of difference between on tortoise and another, but to the layman they all look pretty much the same. To them, they differ only in their size and in the colour of their shells. Alfie had a pale shell with dark patches, so Mr Adam wanted to choose only the lighter shelled tortoises with darker blotches for his great collection.
Size, of course, was everything. Mr Adam chose all sorts of different sizes, some weighing only slightly more than Alfie's 'thirteen ounces' according to Mrs wifey's bonkers scales., others weighing a great deal more, but he didn't want any that weighed less.

Points for anyone who can tell me what the objects are in the cages and jars and further points for telling me what they represent within the context of this story. :D
