You did it!! I was going to reply!!
I have heard that a blind hog will find an acorn every now n then [emoji23]... but now you’ve got to tell me what you think about that tortoises house. Am I just crazy? It’s clear that the man loves his pet... so surely that’s not his only house????
That sounds very scary
Good morning all. It is is still grey and a bit damp here. There are signs of green in my lawn already. It is amazing how one day od rain can let it recover from being parched so quickly.
Lots of chores to cwtch up on today, so I'll be in and oit of the CDR. I hope you are all OK.
* Shouts * COOOOOOEEEEEE! CAROL! HAVE YOU GOT LOST IN THE CELLAR?
I do hope Carol hasn't been caught by the wool spider, if she exists. Carol is the only southern hemisphere occupant of the CDR, and the only one habing winter, and the Wool Spidr may be trying to make her wear ALL that woollen underwear she has been stockpiling

That’s so kind of you! I would freak out at both the snake and the — horror of horrors — praying mantis.
Good morning, roommates!
My thoughts are with everyone in California. Is there a thread for TFO members to check in and tell us if they’re alright?
Also, @CarolM, we miss you!

Hey guys, how are we all doing?
I feel sorry for Merlin at the moment as the torrential downpours have prevented him from wanting to come out, just a grumpy head poking from the straw!

Do you get moles where you are? They aren't common per say around here but I have seen their hills on my travels before!We say garden here in SA and lawn refers to the grass portion of the garden.

Good, sorry I didn't reply sooner, how are the bananas doing?So far so good. I don`t want to complain.
And you ?
Check the temperatures. You may need to adjust the lighting for torts kept indoors. For those outdoors - a couple of hiurs under a lamp to start their day is the way forward.
Cool and damp weather is where Respiratory Infection takes hold, so it is important to intervene.
Try going to Derbyshire - I have never seen so many mole hills as in the peak district! They prefer damp ground, so they'll have dug deep and be less obvious in this weather
@CarolM Gophers and Prairie Dogs are burrowing mammals but nothing like what we call moles here in the UK.
I have a huge problem with moles! They are so many that a good rain collapses their tunnels and leaves huge crevices & washouts all over my land
Good morning all & happy Monday!

Yeah, me to, I didn't want to have to send a prize to anyone else.Congratulations!!!!!!! I hoped you would win
Hmmmmm.
And have continued to do so!
ooops!Good morning all. The apps are reflecting the browser with Adam at the 100K post
I understand some moderation may have affected the result which is rather irritating.
In defence of the mods, they may not have realised the impact.
As a moderator in my other forum, I see all the posts, even the deleted ones. The post and page count I see is completely different to what ordinary members see due to this.
Being very technically ept, I know this and would have left well alone. However, it is possible... probable even... that the mods had no idea what the impact was going to be.
It was thoughtless, but probably not malicious.
I propose we consider Lena the winner ... and the Dark Lord also a winner as we wouldn’t have 100,000 posts of friendship without him.
I am afraid, I am getting increasingly sad as this month progresses. The first anniversary of the death of my next door neighbour yesterday reminded me hard that we will have been without Joe for a year shortly [emoji22]
I hope everyone is around for hugs and to cheer me up.
Sorry, Linda.
I'm here now if that helps.
My Journey to The Cold Dark Room.
When I rescued Tidgy, i stopped off at a cyber-cafe on the way home and checked as many tortoise information sources as possible. This Tortoise Forum became the main base for my tortoise learning.
I didn't join until years later, when Tidgy had a problem with a leg, that thankfully wasn't serious.
I soon joined in the fun over on Pretend Chat, but then had one of my hissy fits, threw the toys out of the pram and established the Cold Dark Room as a place to sulk.
I like sulking.
