COLD DARK ROOM

[Lokkje]

Good morning everyone and happy saturday! I was gonna scroll to see what iv’e missed but thought better of it

Oh and good morning!

Still catching up, but have to go out and buy a potato while the temperature is still above 40°C.
Back eventually.

Pre-baked I take it?

Yes I’m ok. I had a retest Wednesday. It came bk clear. Kiddies came home Saturday. I’m so happy missed them so much I can’t even begin to explain. There was plenty of hugs for sure.
I still have a slight cough and moments where chest goes tight. Been given an inhaler for that. Energy levels are not 100% but are getting there. I went to see a friend today as she said her tort didn’t look good. As soon as I saw her oh man I was so damn mad. Told her point blank the conditions are NOT acceptable. And she has no choice the tort is coming with me. She wasn’t happy but tough. It was either that or I was going to report her for animal cruelty. The little lady is about 4 year old from what Clair was told. She brought her from a local pet shop who knows naff all about tort care. I will do my best for her and keep all updated. I just need a name for her now ?

Adam.
Best name there is.
Even God's favourite.

That’s awesome! What a big fish

Hmmm, I’m thinking Lokkje’s mission is to talk about sporks and Sporky.

No it’s not

Random question but has anyone seen the pyramids in Egypt?
ive always had a fascination with them. When I was a kid my dream was to go to Egypt.
anyone else has a dream when they was a kid?

No.
That way lieth Madness.

Good morning all! I’m pleased with the start to the day. I’ve got to make adjustments to the thermostats in the tortoise boxes today. Our nights begin to drop to the 60’s... I don’t have a whole lot on the chore list besides that. My niece and her husband came in For a visit last night.. I may get out my bow and do some target practicing.. you All know I am an avid lover of nature but I was raised by my father who set a great deal by the sport of hunting. I was taught to respect.. and a lot of time I just enjoy taking pictures.. But I do need to harvest something this year for my freezer.. ( everything on my land here is protected) SO, I may take Ready out to the deer lease for a bit of riding, bonding, and scouting... the options are endless.

Even if your mission is to talk like an English professor I am not going to call anything because it’s too delightful to be reading your posting.

You seem to name a color in most of your posts and you also seem to be talking like some sort of crazy outdoor poet. The thing is your pictures and your conversations are poetry so I’m gonna just keep enjoying it.

So maro2bear’s mission is to name as many plants and flowers as possible. Calling. I’ve got to retain my spork.

Nope, you start at the recent stuff and work your way far enough back that you think you might have a clue about what's going on. Or September 2, whichever comes first.

Well, I've read every post and i have no clue at all as to what is going on.
Pray enlighten me.
In a dark sort of enlightening way.

I'm back playing games.
The Chubbs Roommate is back.
My birthdays are approaching.
You're all Doomed.

They are doomed because the mighty Sporky that you spawned is going to take them out in the fires of the cold dark room which is hidden from the master. And by the way, I hope you have a delightful and lovely birthday. I still think it should be birthday month and that you messed up on that one. I always have a birthday month. As a matter fact every day is my birthday. Why not?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

YAyyyyyyt!

 

[Lokkje]

No.
It's the Cold Dark Room.

Thank you. I know you meant to write -100. Update your records. You have those nice new columns and nice new spreadsheet so make sure you get it correctly in my column as by my count I am now at -5,782,648.

I’ve had to do a quick fix. She’s on a 5ft tort table with a 3 in one bulb. I have no reflector. So need to get one ASAP. I’ve turn heat up to 90degrees. She’s on orchard bark substrate now as being a red foot owner that’s all I have in along with the coco messy stuff . (Haven’t given her the Coco messy stuff. Just orchard bark). I will get her different substrate if the orchard bark is no good for her.
I gave her a 45min soak and mixed in some carrot baby food. I put the bowl under the heat lamp to keep her warm. She dunked her head twice. I’m going to start recording weight from tomorrow. I also gave her mazuri with kale, rocket. Dandelion greens and grapes. She ate about a quarter. Her poop seems normal. But her wee is white and a hard substance not sure if normal.
I rang Clair earlier she said she’s never soaked her in the 4/5 weeks she’s had her. And said her pee has always been a White hard substance.
I really hope I can pull this girl through I really do.

I'm sure a million folks have said, but keep temps high, day and night and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.

Good morning. And happy Saturday

Good morning. How is your tortoise today?

Adam was tossed out of the garden of Eden if you recall.

Ok tried Brie cheese for the first time.
Wish I had tried it years ago.
It was delicious, very mild cheese.
Wish I drank alchohol, a nice glass of wine would have been great.
Thanks Dark Lord for my mission for using the word cheese.
I would have not tried brie cheese if not for the mission.
I wanted visuals to make it not to obvious of the cheese mission.

You'd think if they wanted people to eat all those fancy cheeses, they'd make them more accessible. Put them in a can, or conveniently sliced and wrapped individually.

anyone else has a dream when they was a kid?

My unrealistic dream was I used to look through the telescope and wish I could be on another planet. Planets fascinated me. My real dream was that I wanted to be doctor. I need a new dream.
