THANK you all for your good wishes for Elsa! :) She had a great visit at the vet: X-ray showed NO more urate stones or flakes!!!!

I'm really pleased with this vet. She is not our regular vet, but joined the practice not too long ago. She asked me a bunch of questions before she examined Elsa. She asked what temperatures I keep her at and how I hydrate her. She asked what I feed her and was glad I don't feed her much spinach- she says she often gets tortoises that are fed ONLY spinach because their owners don't know. She examined her eyes, ears, mouth and skin. She said that Elsa looks great; that her shell is very smooth and "shows no pyramiding at all." She told me a couple stories about tortoises she's treated where the owner didn't understand how to take care of a tortoise. She ended by telling me to keep doing what I'm doing, and that I'm giving Elsa "excellent care!" (polishes halo ;) )

This was the first time Elsa traveled in a car in the 4 years that i've had her. She pooped no less than :eek: FOUR times!!!!! So the vet had plenty to sample for parasites (not that we think Elsa's having any parasites, but she's never been examined for them and as long as we were there, why not?)
Well done to you and Elsa!
Sounds like a great vet you have there Bea.

Good morning all from a soggy South Wales.
Hope you are all enjoying Friday.
I was going in to school but the caretaker text me to say he was needed in the new school so couldn't open up the old one for long
- I wasn't too disappointed;) Gives me an excuse to go shopping.
Have a good day everyone.
TTFN

Holy Chinese spam!
This is beyond annoying.
Is anyone knowledgeable enough to give that jerks software a virus?
We were discussing this problem at my IT forum's conference yesterday. The timing of these posts suggests its actually humans being paid to bypass forum security features and post spam rather than a computer program.

Our webmaster has blocked a huge swathe of Indian and Chinese IP addresses and it made a massive difference.

He's also been reporting hacking attempts where they keep trying to login to accounts trying random passwords. The accounts that come under most fire are those are just someone's forename.
