COLD DARK ROOM

[Gillian M]

Good evening all. I'm back from London.

So tired and my feet ache.

Here's a photo I took from the cable car over the Thames looking west toward the city last night.

View attachment 198266

The big white tent thing is the O2 Arena formerly the Millennium Dome. Anyone that watches EastEnders, a BBC soap opera, will be familiar with seeing it from above on the titles.

The nearest skyscrapers are in Canary Wharf - the new business area of London and beyond those is the City of London... the square mile that is the heart of business in London.

Time for a hot bath now to soak my weary limbs. I may be some time!

Welcome back Linda @JoesMum . Nice to see you at CDR.

My torts are living in closed chambers and althoug it`s difficult to keep humidity high.

Talking about our "babies" : dogs, cats, torts or something else is always a good stuff to talk about.

Yeah my closed chamber leaks out the humidity but it goes back up after a good wetting and the fogger going off for 15 secs.

Hello Austin,

saw your pics of your new pets ! They are all interesting and cute !
Someone said to me that a centipede could be poison. Is it true ?

Hello Gillian.

Centipedes are poisonous.

 

[Bee62]

Thank you Gillian. Yes I am well. But I read you have had a cold. Do you recover ? Having a bad cold is so exhausting. No one need a cold !

Millipedes are safe tho! Just have to wash your hands if the leak their nasty toxin. It's so their predators don't eat them!

Hi Gillian we are going to need all hands on deck for this move so all volunteers welcome.
I am quite upset about all the stuff being scraped when it could be recycled and rehomed easily. I have offered to help dispose of things to Freecycle or charity shops but no one has had the courtesy to reply to my emails yet. Such a shame I really hate unnecesay waste.
Sorry I'm on my soapbox about my pet hate again

Hi Lyn and Lola.

Please be patient, Lyn. You may receive answers to your e-mail messages. I know that waiting is not at all easy.

 

[Gillian M]

Yup.
We'd accept a photo of you upside down, Lyn.

Upside down! WOW!

What do you teach ? English ?

Mostly.
But I have one student studying palaeontology and sometimes teach maths, physics, astronomy, Latin, all sorts of stuff.

Morning roommates

Good morning, my beautiful hummingbird.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good morning all! A sleepy morning for me. How is everyone?

Good morning, Linhdan, how lovely to see you, so to speak.
All good here, how have you been ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good Morning Bee !!
So sorry to hear about the ice rain. It was rainy here all last week and part of the week before. I'm glad it stopped though. My pup was getting all muddy. What are you up to today?

Usually pups like getting muddy!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I did that yesterday. Holy Moly it dries out quickly doesn't it?

Use baked beans.
They hold in the moisture for a bit longer.

Luckily the ice rain was today, on Sunday. On Monday when everyone drive to work it would cause trouble. The "weather man" promised rain for the next week.
I have nothing special planned for today. Just relax and look after my animals. Staying indoor will be better... It`s a nasty cold and wet weather outside.

Yup, I'm staying in, too.
It's quite nice outside, but a little chilly.
I am starting to look like my sofa.

Hi Ed
Are those to fend off the cannibal at the vets?

I think a dose of REALITY would work on her.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Unless it's warm and sunny, I don't want promises. lol. Its really cold here in Maryland. I'm at work though, unfortunately. I would love to go home to my animals though. My puppy has been having loose/watery poops for a little while now. I think it improved though. No middle of the night poops or even early this morning

I hope he gets better soon, poor mite.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Wish i could come and help out! I enjoy helping people out.

Morning, Austin.
