COLD DARK ROOM
- Thread starter Tidgy's Dad
- Start date
Since our Dark Lord started T.O.R.T.O.I.S.E. and made the rules, I will honor his Master Plan and will declare that ALL T.O.R.T.O.I.S.E. gifts are to be opened on Christmas day...
...except mine...
(I can get away with that, since he's not around to scold me!)
I’ll send the Leprechaun after you if you don’t retract this statement!
Bea!!!! There’s a meerkat taking over your account — again!!!!
Beautiful!!
I’m all excited. We applied and were accepted into our local power company’s free test trial of some wifi enabled gizmos - including some temperature AND humidity sendors! One already has the ID of SullysHouse.

I can sense a spike in excitement over at your house! Congratulations!
Do tell her she’ll end up on the naughty list. We actually keep one! The Naughty Tortie of the Year award.
All beautiful! I forgot, again probably, that you have three massive torts, not two. Are you still able to soak them?
Razor is a very sharp-looking dog, and I’d love to squeeze Sweetpea a little. So cute!
Yes ma’am [emoji2]
Kiddie pools and 5 gallon buckets are very handy when bath time rolls around. Thankfully I have a wet sink in the laundry room with hot and cold water for the cooler days [emoji851]

I told her and this is how proud she is
The weather has turned cold here in NYC. Officially it's 43F/7C, but there a strong and very chill wind that cuts straight through you.
After going to 1WTC observatory we went to the 9/11 memorial museum. It was very thought-provoking and the queues for entry were clearly organised by JFK immigration [emoji849] Two hours in two separate queues to get in! I'm glad we did it. Like visiting one of the Nazi concentration camps (we have visited Dachau), it is probably something everyone should do and the world would be a far nicer and more tolerant place because of it. It's quite a simple message... "Why not be nice to each other and support each other rather than assuming everyone is out to get you?"
It's not something you do for fun so, with the sun shining, we walked The High Line this afternoon which cheered us up and blew a few cobwebs away. This is a disused section of railway track that is now a park and footpath. It was seriously drafty and cold up there and I didn't get my phone out to take pictures as that would have meant taking my gloves off. You can take a look on the website though

So we are back at our hotel with steaming mugs of tea to warm us up and then we are going for dinner before seeing Springsteen On Broadway

Glad to see and hear that you are having a great time. Cold and clear. Enjoy your cuppa (hope you have a KitKat or a HobNob) to go with.

My in-house cat-mittee want to know if "mere" cats are a lesser species. Otherwise, they want to convey that there is nothing "mere" about cats.Merely cats? More likely, meerkats...
Love your description! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

That's more than twice as long as the U.S. has officially been a country.
I would JUMP over board just to get a wash. It would be a nice and really big bath. [emoji23] [emoji23]

And here I was thinking that I want the top bunk. I would hate to be the guy at the bottom in case those beds collapsed.
Sounds real interesting.
Wow. She is strong.

Quite right! I'm an Anne with an "e"... and I live in Florida. It's been a long week or two, so I don't know if I've said hello or introduced myself to you yet...Oh no my dear friend....... you misspell a name in a document, and watch.

Where there's a will there's a way!
Or where there's a tort there's a thought!
"How am I going to get out of here?"
