The ammolite is beautiful, love the colours in that,I have recently made friends with a couple of very nice young mothers in Canada who go fossil collecting with their young daughters. They have been kind enough to send me lots of Canadian Ordovician fossils and slightly younger Devonian ones.View attachment 247287
Here are just a few plus some they collected in New York.

Gosh! Is that long since we banned ourselves from punning in Pretend Chat because we were getting on people's nerves?How odd.
No mention of England's loss to Belgium in the Third place play off.
Virtually no mention of the final.
Congratulations to France.
(a little grudgingly) .
England's future looks bright.
Also , no one seemed to notice or celebrate the three year Roomiversary!
Three years of the Cold Dark Room!
Thanks everyone for making it such a very special community of very special people.
The personnel may change a bit over the years, but the heart, kindness and silly fun of the place remains always intact.
Bless you all.![]()
That's brilliant!Well, the comments seem to have just petered out, rather.
But thank you, carol for organizing the World Cup thingy, it was great fun.
And congratulations to Todd for being so good at his predictions to win the thing.
I operated a thread over on the Fossil Forum with a person representing each country in the competition and getting points for the results, predictions and games and quizzes and questions about football, fossils and even a few on tortoises.
I had thirty two players, one representing each country, a mix of males and females from about twenty countries with an age range from teenage to late sixties. Much more cosmopolitan than the real world cup! Lots of other people joined in too!
It received 4.658 posts and was viewed 41,622 times, the biggest thread in Fossil Forum history!
Here is the Tidgy emoji they made for me.

The animal must be killed by having it's throat cut with a very sharp knife whilst appropriate prayers of thanks are made. The animal is then strung up so as much blood as possible can drain from the carcass. That's it in a nutshell, at least here.I think it makes it not Halaal. If my understanding is correct you have to use utensils and meat that has not had any contact with pork products.
Yes. Baily is a cat that behaves often like a dog. A real relaxed dog.Silly cat.
Clearly feels very secure sleeping like that.![]()

Clever Tidgy tortoise ! Want water ? Waiting patiently until her daddy turns on the water....Tidgy stands under my outside tap and stares at me until i go over and turn it on. About three minutes and she's done and strolls off.
Until the next time!
Thanks, Kathy!@Tidgy’s Dad

Very yummy ! In Germany we have them too.Pain au chocolat.
View attachment 247259
We have them in Morocco but call them Pain sans chocolat as they have a tiny dot or smear of chocalate at one end at most to save money and effort.
In the South of France they are called chocolatine and this has now started an argument in the French parliament
