Good morning all!
I am having big problems with TFO today.
It's very slow to load and when I've tried to navigate between pages or threads I get a message saying 'SSL handshake failed' and it's a problem with the host.
So unfortunately I don't have the patience right now to persevere, but I will try to catch up with you later when hopefully whatever has gone wrong will have been fixed.
TTFN

Hope the host will behave later today and will shake hands with you, Lyn. Very annoying.

I'll take your word for it... :eek: The reason I got into poison ivy is because I was geocaching* on a trail in Canada. I've learned my lesson now. I hope. :rolleyes:

* Geocaching is an outdoor recreational activity, in which participants use a GPS receiver or mobile device and other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches", at specific locations marked by coordinates all over the world. (from Wikipedia)
Sounds fun. Even with the episode.

Good afternooning. My osteo/physio was very thorough and disputes the cause of the problems with my leg. I am inclined to believe her.

Either way, I have different exercises to do now and my leg is feeling better after her treatment. I am back next week.

Following the TFO problems, just a reminder that we do now have a CDR Facebook group. It is closed... you have to request to join... and posts will only be seen by members of the group.

It SHOULD ask you for your TFO posting name when you join so we can match your real name with someone on TFO. Lena and I are the Admins and will only authorise recognisable TFO members!

Here’s the link for the CDR Group:

No, I'm not the admin on the tortoise forum's facebook group. Josh is. I've cancelled all my facebook accounts. Was having too much trouble figuring it all out.

I haven't forgotten. But rarely go on FB. But I will use it when there are problems in the CDR.

I'd avoid downloading that at all cost. While Facebook *claims* the app is safe and non-intrusive, the permissions required to run the app could allow for malfeasance by Facebook or a third-party company. We've banned the app on all Android devices in my company for that very reason.
I've solved the problem. I deactivated my account. Trouble is, I have three accounts, so I deactivated one of them, but in order to not have it automatically reactivate itself I must stay off facebook for 48 hours. Then I can go in and deactivate one of the two left, wait 48 hours then deactivate the last one. Such a headache.

Margery’s misadventures!!! Part 1

You would think by this picture that this tortoise looks timid and shy..............if so you thought wrong.


So the breeder who’s a friend of mine said that I could have another tortoise if I wanted one and I said YES of course. So I came to pick her up and the breeder said “she’s as good as gold” and “she will be no trouble”. That was a lie!!!:D

Patty and Selma are chilled and well behaved.........most of the time anyway, but Marge is the extreme she bites, rams my hand, eats ants when she sees them and is scared of the water bowl (good thing I soak every day). The breeder knew about her behaviour all along and his reply was “Hey, if your going to work with animals then you have got to deal with different personalities”......... brilliant ;). Other than that though I love that little demon and besides she is funny sometimes.:)
