Adam, hope your student didn’t try to cross a frozen lake on foot in an attempt to make it in time for the lesson. ;) ;)

Looks cold there too.

It’s the wind causing here. It’s very cold so the snow is fine and powdery and the snow is drifting.

It is really strange to see frozen lakes and snow etc. I normally only see them on documentaries. Which makes you feel kind of divorce from it. But knowing all of you and seeing your pics does make it that little bit more real. So Linda, when do we see the pics of you ice skating on the frozen lake?;)

Good morning, Carol! :)
I am very sorry to hear about this, but at least you didn't part with any money, but how cruel some people can be.
These scammers are so selfish and yes, evil, no consideration for others at all, preying on the love people have for animals.
There are a lot in the tortoise world as well, of course, and even the fossil world has a lot of cheats and scammers after your hard earned cash.
Hope your mood improves as the day progresses.:<3:
Thank you Adam. It has actually because I recieved my delivery for the seeds I bought for Rue's food garden. That definitely made it better.20180302_114040.jpg20180302_114047.jpg20180302_114052.jpg

Yum.
I love gin.
But not as much as wifey does. :D
Gin seems to be a womans favourite choice of alcohol and whiskey or beer a man's. That is not to say that both sexes don't drink the other. And wine of course is goes down well with both.

He just got up late!
Half an hour late and left 20 minutes early to go to the mosque.
Nice short lesson! :D
Picture postcard stuff, indeed, except for those horrible advertising 'a-frames' blocking the pavement! :eek:

Good afternoon all.
I have a work free weekend and it feels good.:D
Last night temps had been - 11, 8 C . For my American friends: 10,76 F VERY COLD !!!! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
But next week it will be warmer again. So said the weather forecast. The only nice thing is that the sun is shining every day.
It looks really lovely outside but it is very cold.
I wish you all a very happy Friday.:)

Hey, Gang!!!!! The vet's office just called!!! Jacques' white blood cell count is down to 12,400- that is a HUGE improvement and shows she's responding very well to treatment!!!!!!! (Her count had previously been 30,600 which is SUPER high).
The vet wants to complete the full 2 weeks of treatment, so if all still looks good on Saturday, I'll be bringing her home then!!!!!!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

Good Morning all. I hope everyone is having a good day. I am unfortunately in a very bad mood. I have decided to get Milley a companion as she is just not right ever since her brother died. We found someone who was advertising English Bulldogs. Absolutely beautiful puppies. Anyway after emails back and forth and the family choosing which puppy we all liked I asked the person where she stayed exactly so we could go see the puppies (they advertised under western Cape) it turned out they are supposedly in the northern cape. Anyway long story short it was a scam. Thank goodness I didnt
didn't pay them anything. It however still is very disappointing and really cruel that people run these type of scams. Anyway it has put me in a very bad mood. So it is not a good day for me. Sigh I suppose it could have been worse.
Sorry to hear that Carol. Don`t let it put you down. There are a lot of people who try to get money for nothing in every land. In Germany too.:(
