COLD DARK ROOM

[DE42]

If everybody does that, we'll never get there!

I'll post twice as much so it's ok

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I will only say that it was tort inspired[emoji6]

Aha.
Could probably spend all night guessing but I ought to get some sleep.
Good luck with that!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

So the water table must be pretty high to support all those trees. Learn something new everyday.

Yup.
Even in the desert.
Here is the Draa valley, Sahara Desert, Morocco :

Please do!

 

[Moozillion]

Look forward to those!
Hi, Mooz, please send Jacques all our love!
Good luck with the ramp and love to you too, of course.

Thanks bunches, Adam.
I am a bit obsessed about getting Jacques' basking platform JUST right. It's silly, but oh, well.
I really need to unwind a little about this whole incident, from the near-drowning to the pneumonia and the extended hospital stay. My perfectionist tendencies are going full-bore and that's not really good for me, my blood pressure or the people around me!!!!!!!

 

[Moozillion]

Have you seen this?

HOLY MOLY!!!!!!!

Well, i hope you're trying to do some relaxing as well.
Put your feet up, do some fun things and try to take your mind off it all.
You don't want to upset Jacques by changing things to much when she's just settling back in to her old home.

I'm still looking for a turtle lol I have an 80 gal tank ready when I find one.

 

[Momof4]

Have you seen this?

I have no words!!

 

[DE42]

Back home. Laying in bed. A dog at my feet. Time to relax.

I did not know I was going put CDR to sleep.

 

[JoesMum]

She appears to be doing great!
She keeps wanting to bask (float basking a lot) but I removed the one involved in the accident, the next one was not satisfactory, the next one developed great gobs of fuzzy mild or something, so I’m trying to build a plastic one, post haste. I want her to be able to raise her body temperature at will, so I’ve got to have one that she can get completely out of the water on.
Been working feverishly today, and hope to have photos for you tomorrow! (IF my phone will behave...[emoji853])

Don’t worry about us. Jacques needs you more at the moment. Give her our love.

And don’t forget to look after yourself. You have our love too. x

 

[JoesMum]

I haven't a clue. Had an idea pop in my head this morning, I'd have to harass my husband into making a prototype...

I think this is where you need to start

[JoesMum]

Aw geez! What the heck? I've never seen anything like that before. You couldn't pay me enough to do that job. Not just the electricity, but sitting on the cables that high in the air? No way.

It’s only the height that bothers me. Sitting on the cables never has. My dad, an electricity board engineer, explained that to me years ago. Like the birds, you’re fine as long as you only touch one cable.

It sounds like you need a session in a certain English Tearoom to unwind.

I’m awake now Dan. Hello

Good morning everyone. Happy wibbling Tuesday

 

[Kristoff]

Snow clouds, probably.

It worked!!! Lots of ice on the roads now, which will soon melt and turn into mud, which in turn will end up on people’s cars, bikes, and clothes, all of which can be washed. All’s well, in a nutshell

 

[Kristoff]

Or aged Adam.
A couple of the youngsters were joking about my age today on Fossil Forum. And a guy at least 10 years older than me as well!
They made this :

I don’t see Adam in that timeline

 

[Kristoff]

No.
Not even the sub-Sahara, though full days of rain are rare here and it gets pretty dry, but we can be quite verdant even in summer, two rivers go through Fes. We are in a mountain valley.
This is just outside the city in the middle of summer.

Lovely. So green. And vaguely reminds me of Esio Trot...

Intriguing. No clue about patenting though
