Morning Y'all.
So sorry to read about your tooth, Lyn.
I'm glad you're doing better, Adam.
This is the first day that there has been any big improvement with my cold/flu. I still have no energy though.
I ended up just going to Home Depot yesterday after work and BUYING a "garden Cart". It's metal with pneumatic tires and the sides come off.
In the box it was $90. I coulda made one for a little less. (The wheels are the expensive part.) So now I have an easier way of loading up the tort gang from the back yard and bringing them in from the frigid December 80 plus degree cold blasts.

Glad to hear you're a bit better too, Ed.
I rarely have any energy anyway, so I'm used to that.
Good news about the cart!
A photo of all the torts in transit would be nice if you could manage it.

Just a reminder ! No politics on the forum.

Thank you, moderator Mike!
Though you are quite right, of course.
But from a purely business perspective, I wouldn't deal with him and from a personal perspective he's off my Christmas card list.

Hi, Cold Dark Roomers! I haven't been on in several days because we were getting Jacques all settled in!!! I started a thread in the Water Turtle section, titled "Meet Jacques!" View attachment 158195View attachment 158196

Seems to be finding his way around his new home.
Will look forward to seeing more of Jacques

Fire up the Tortmobile!
Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better Ed, still a way to go yet though so rest up when you can - at home or in work!!
Thankfully my tooth seems to have calmed down again for now so fingers crossed it will stay that way until I can see my dentist.

Morning everyone. I hope everyone has a great Hump Day

Good morning!
Hope your birthday is going along nicely.

Oh, WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is gorgeous!
I will pop over to Jacques' thread as soon as I can!
i've been very busy today and still have a few things to sort out.
You must be very happy with him.

OH.MY.GAWD!!!!!

How on God's green earth can supposedly intelligent beings do such a thing???!?!?

Thanks goodness you got her Adam- I shudder to think what they might have come up with next.
How did you manage to get her from them?????

Hi, Bea, lovely to see you as always.
The thing is here, is that if you compliment something enough and say how lovely it is, the owner is duty bound to offer it to you, though you should refuse at least twice before accepting.
We learned this at the hotel we first stayed at while falling in love with the medina and looking for a home.
Wifey adored a waitresses earrings and so the waitress gave them to her.
One must be careful how much one like something.
However, this meant I simply had to adore these poor little tortoises and I was offered the one that within the hour became named Tidgy, on the spot, but unfortunately, her sister was owned by another family whose child was staying there and, as they weren't there, this tort could not be offered.
I impolitely accepted Tidgy at once and escaped before the children's tears or complaints began.
