Welcome to the Cold Dark Rooms, I cannot remember if we have introduced you to the way we do things and or greet all new comers, so bare with me if we already have.
Pull up an armadillo and I am sure that Montgomery will be around with a beverage of your choice unless you need the hard stuff, in which case you will need to look for the one legged pirate and see what he has available for you. It is quite dark in here so if you need a little light then please poke a jellyfish and they will light your way for a short while. Be careful of the penguins Willy and Silly they are Sabine's pets and she is rather protective over them. Also watch where you step, as I believe it can be very painful if you step on one of the hedgehogs in these rooms. There are lots of woolen accessories and or garments in corner 7 (I think Linda - JoesMum said) which apparently have been knitted by the Woolen Spider - if she exists - they might come in handy when it gets very cold in here depending on which corner you are visiting. If you visit my corner - more to the south - then it will be warmer than it is in the northern corners etc.
If your carrots start to go missing in your corner that would be the snow leopard, as that is what she likes to eat. If you see a Meerkat then please do let the rest of us know as they are the bane of our lives here in the CDR. They really like to mess around with the smooth running of the CDR and cause no end of problems when they decide that they want to liven things up a bit.
We talk torts, lizards, grass, weather, nonsense, books, dinosaurs, fossils, you name it we talk it in here. We are a bunch of fun, pun loving people from all sorts of corners of the world. And I know that we have met before outside of the CDR rooms, but I am going to say it anyway, I am Carol from Cape Town South Africa.

Thank you Carol!!
I know how painfull Hedgehogs can be, I have two African Pygmy Hedgehogs myself. Haha!! I find there needles in my clothes sometimes.
I do like penguins and I am learning to hook with a needle at the moment, so I will be fine I guess... maybe the Woolen spider can teach me. Lol

That is if she exists. I think I have seen your little hedgehogs. But just in case could we get a picture. I think they are such adorable little things. Unless of course you get one of their quills stuck in you. Then maybe not so adorable after all.
We could track JoesMum ALL the way here....but, at least we know shes heading in the right direction. Folks in the CDR don’t necessarily take direct routes anywhere!

Thank you for the updates.
Dear Adam, I am glad that you finally got the parcel. I hope so much that you and wifey like the things. It was a great pleasure for me to send you all these things.I received a parcel from the absolutely incredible Sabine today. @Bee62 .
WOW ! ! ! ! ! !
It weighed about 10 kg, nearly killed me getting it back from the Post office. (not that I'm complaining)
Here is the empty bow as I emptied it too quickly for wifey to get a photo of it full.

I think she is just saving on Christmas card postage - just popping a few cards in the post, then back to the motherland.
.......closer, getting closer.
Hello my friends. I am alive !
The leg is still hurting and I can`t work but I am doing better.
I am missing you all. I will try to use my laptop to pop in here. Sitting on a chair in front of my PC hurts too much in my leg.
