This makes me sooo sad

It is sad, the orca have a really interesting way of hunting the narwhal though. Fascinating

Thanks and hello.
Just going foe a stroll with Tidgy, then i may need a short nap if i can find the pillow fort.
We're all used to cuddling up with the armadillos!

Head on over! There's an armadillo that looks like it's up for some "Adam snuggles"

It was! In spite of the first frosts of the year having to be scraped off the car today, it was really sunny and by lunchtime like a summers day!
Good walk, rock pooling, collecting shells and pebbles.
Much better than being in school!!

Hi, Lyn!!!
I used to love that sort of school trip.
Though once I fell in a river.
happy days.

It was stunning, the sea was like a mill pond, but a little too cold to paddle.
We cooked sausages and a lovely day was had by all!

My sausages ??

I recently read an article about Dolphins and polar bears. I'll have to see if I can find it. Dolphins are starting to travel further north as well. Some got trapped under some ice and when they came up for air, the polar bears started pulling them out of the water. (I'm a softy--it makes me a bit sad). BUT the really cool thing about it is that scientists saw Polar Bears do something they had never done before...the polar bear couldn't eat all the dolphin and buried it in the snow to preserve it and save it for later.

So fun! You're inspiring me to set up a cool day by the lake for my kids. There are several lakes near by, but we usual just go there during swimming season. I think I may have to take the kids for a cold cookout similar to what you did

That will be lovely - a walk, skimming stones, building a den and a fire and cooking sausages and hot chocolate with marshmallows ! A great adventure with autumnal colours!

Sorry - too many hungry mouths to feed!

That's pretty neat! It's interesting to watch them adapt

Can I freeze pumpkin?
A colleague was pumpkin carving with his group today and I asked him to save me the scrap bits for Lola who is constipated.
But I had a lot more than I was expecting.
So if I put it the freezer will be survive for future use if needed?

Hello. Back for lunch.

Hi Ed how are you this week?

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Hi Ed how are you this week?

Good thanks. How is your throat area?

 

[Lyn W]

Hi, Lyn!!!
I used to love that sort of school trip.
Though once I fell in a river.
happy days.

The last time we did a waterfall walk in the vales I was the only one to fall in a river!
Only about 3 years ago and after nagging the kids to always bring spare clothes in case of unexpected soakings
guess who was the only one to have forgotten hers?!
I had to wear one of our waterproof suits home - and then had to sit in a meeting after school wearing it too!

The kids thought it was hilarious.
What a numpty I was - but it proved my point!

 

[Lyn W]

Good thanks. How is your throat area?

Much better thanks Ed, I still feel a bit washed out back in work

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Man!
I've been looking at "rehome" ads and almost every one of them get a response by someone that just joined the TFO about a minute ago.
Crazy. Are people just fishing here for free or cheap tortoises?

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Much better thanks Ed, I still feel a bit washed out back in work

It's a shame that someone so cheerful and full of happiness is not feeling well.
I do hope that you are back 100% soon.

Probably - get them free, sell on, easy money I bet.

Thanks Ed, I'm OK - nothing a few evenings taking it easy and early nights won't sort out.

I'm pretty sure that you can, I wouldn't see why not. I don't think becoming mushy would really be a problem
