The weather is far sunnier than reportred. And fewer overturned cars in the streets and less looting than I had imagined.......................
Ha de ha,
Good to see you, Ed.
If you have time today, could you go back about 6 pages to post #11290, Stojanovski would like some advice on Redfoot outdoor enclosures and plants.
I know you're the man who can for this.
Ta in advance.

I also went shopping today, but only in the souk, our local market and to the shops at the bottom of the road.
I like doing these little shopping trips.
Do you like your school uniform ?
I hated mine, except the tie.
I don't mind it in the winter. But in the summer it's unbearably hot.

I hate the pe jogging bottoms though :(
Thy are so uncomfortable and look horrid. Even when it's cold, I refuse to be seen in them.

Never mind only 7 or 8 weeks to half term and if it goes as quickly as the last 6 it won't seem too bad.
Although I swear someone fast forwards the holidays (Adam admitted it was him once so we'll blame him)
if its any consolation very few of your teachers will be looking forward to going back either (unless they are mad!)
From past and recent experience, quite a lot of teachers are indeed bonkers.
Did I admit to the fast forwarding?
Well, it's probably true then.

It's The Cold Dark Room, not COLD DARK ROOM.
But now i'm being picky and naughty.
Hope you and Oli are well, too.
Tidgy got up this morning, peeked out of her hide ans stared about for half an hour, walked out about a foot, did lots of staring around (probably sent a kiss to Oli) and then went back to bed where she still is.
Funny girl.
I insist on Cold DARK Room.?Bosses can really be mean and picky, can't they, Sir?

Regards to Wifey and a kiss (just one, notice), Tidgy from Oli.

We always had to run in shorts, blinking freezing.
Including through an icy river in cross country.
Horrible. But bizarrely fun at the same time.

Ok, ok, but it's harder to type.
Your choice.
My team, Leeds Utd finally won on Saturday after 4 draws in a row.
Still, at least we haven't lost yet.

Can I see outdoor enclosures that you guys have for your torts? I'm wanting to make one but I don't even know where to begin?!!? I always look at pictures and never get tired of seeing new ones. I have something to work with here and I know I will have to pull the plants all out and start clean here. But then what?? If I begin, I just want it to be done right and safely for my torts. It's about 26 feet long and I'd definitely widen this area. It's about 3 ft wide. What plants do you guys put in for Redfoots.

Since Redfoot don't dig you have easy options.
All three of my pens are basically made the same way. It's strong cheap and easily modified or made larger.
I use 4' steel fence pickets hammered into the ground 12" and then attach treated fence pickets with deck screws.
I suggest four pickets high with the bottom one flush with the ground. I've also made them 3 pickets high.
Higher walls and doors, roofs are also easy to ad.
I also use Spider plants and Bermuda grass. Tough to eat and offer hiding spots and shade.

I have a concealed carry permit and have a handgun everywhere I go.
The whole world is turning to crap.
Will he be ok?

I enjoy typing and type quite fast.

Who did Leeds United play, and what was the result? 1-0? Nothing! (Only joking Boss, ok?)
