COLD DARK ROOM

[Yvonne G]

There are sockets for the drinks machines (one hot and one cold) and the coffee machines and hot plate.
Otherwise I don't know as heating and lighting is prohibited. (though a personal blanket would be acceptable) .
You could feel about near the bottom of the walls and see what you find.
i'd be interested to know myself.

No way, Jose. There's nothing in the world that would make me put my hand down in that dark, scary place. No telling what would get me down there.

Don't blame you.
This place is still largely unexplored, though we think there's a giant wool spider lurking in a web up above, somewhere.

If there's any left I'll give it to the torts and millipedes. They haven't had s nice treat in a very long time.

What do the millipedes need to eat ?

 

[Killerrookie]

What do the millipedes need to eat ?

Carrots, lettuce, apples, potatoes, and other fruits and vegetables!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Carrots, lettuce, apples, potatoes, and other fruits and vegetables!

Fresh or rotting ?

 

[Killerrookie]

Fresh or rotting ?

It really doesn't matter but i like giving them fresh food.

Most splendid.
Most of the ones in Thailand only seemed to eat rotting vegetation.

Just popped back to tell you about the latest trouble my recycling has gotten me into!
School was throwing out some new tins of blue paint so I brought them home to put on Freecycle website.
Only remembered they were in the boot tonight, so about 10.15 went to get them, but dropped one of them; it landed upside down and and the lid came off - right in the gutter outside a neighbours house. Nightmare!!! The air was (quietly) as blue as the road!
Thankfully it was emulsion rather than gloss but it's taken me 2 hours to mop,scrub and rinse it all away with only one poxy torch to help. I may have missed bits in the dark and will have to check in the daylight but what a disaster on a Sunday night.
Here I am trying to do good things to save the planet and that's all the thanks I get.
January hasn't been very kind to me in one way or another so I'm hoping Feb will be better or I may just have to stay in bed for the whole of it to try to stay out of bother for a while!
Right I think I've sufficiently calmed down enough to sleep now so I'm definitely off to bed, so see you all tomorrow.
Nos Da pawb!

Cold and colder.
It's 8 pm and already down to 51.
I wouldn't worry too much with the new 75 watt bulbs, but it's also still raining, so I just drug all 7 torts into totes in the back, "bird room" with the heater in the room set at 73 degrees.
Cold and rain are not a good combination and are almost unheard of here.

Good morning, Ed.
It's lovely here.
I use a CHE when necessary, which isn't often.
And don't alert @Tom in the CDR.
He'll come and tell me off for using baked beans as substrate.

Baked beans DO hold in heat and humidity.
I no longer use coleslaw.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

I prefer beans with bacon pieces it myself

+2 in the bacon beans.
Or salted pork.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

My rooms hot from all the lamps and heat pads everywhere...

I ended up keeping my Uromastyx in the garage.
It was the only place that could support the 100 plus degrees.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Good night.
Sleep well everyone.
Those that DO sleep.

Oh, dear, what a month it's been for you.
Really hope that the paint doesn't look too bad in the morning and that you have a good February and rest of the year.
Don't give up, Lyn, you'll get your rewards for all your good deeds, one day.
Nos da.

We're just coming out of our cold spell, coldest winter by far in the 12 I've spent here.
The weather's gone crazy.
You drug your tortoises ?

We're all still learning here.
