Tehehehe. I wouldn’t have clocked in if the word phone wasn’t mentioned 4 times lol
This is just a suggestion from something I read and tried on a tortoise with a uri. This was years ago. I read that one reason wild tortoises with a uri don't survive is because they can't smell food so they don't look for it. Along with everything else everyone has told you... you might try non-invasive handfeeding technics. Long leafy greens to keep your fingers out of the way. And it's less stressful than placing them everytime close to the food tile. My tortoise still throws a little fit if I try to make him eat. He wants to do what he wants to do when he wants to do it.

Innoway there is. I have not been feeling very pleasant mentally of late and I’m thinking about taking a bit of a break. It was very hard losing Jilly.
Breaks are necessary.. when something ignites your passion again, you’ll be healed.. always sad at the loss.. but ok with it. Time is necessary in any endeavor. And anything worth doing is done right. Good luck . “I know that you already know this, but it never hurts to be reassured”

Actually a quote from Doctor Who; The Talons of Weng Chiang.
I've seen all of the episodes (I think) where the Doctor was played by Christopher Eccleston and by David Tennant. Unfortunately, not too much on either side of that.

I used to have dreams where I was getting chased a lot. Fortunately never by weeping angels. Made me think twice about putting up statuary, though!

My doctor is not very confident as to my continued survival.
Having said that, my doctor is an idiot and i should have been dead eight years ago.
I don't believe I'm dead, yet.
Though it's difficult to tell.

well... after seeing this note I must honestell you my good man.....
You better not die or....we will kill you!!!
And that doctor of yours is going to come face to face with our Dark Spork Lord and get sporked!!!! And we shall have Tidgy bite him on the big toe if he crosses you again....my lord. ?
I am sorry doctors have no filter for bad banter....
I must cheer you up ....?
Here....have some cheese!

Well.... you tell your doctor from us here in this cold dark room... he can go to....
He is not welcome in our world. Only optimism and willingness is allowed.
I must cheer you up oh powerful dark lord.
Here..... have some cheese!!!!

Just starting with “I made puff pastry” is amazing. “I buy puff pastry in the refrigerated section of the store” is more my speed.
Michelin starred Chef Raymond Blanc on yv a couple of years ago advised people to buy puff pastry for use at home. He said it was too much to make from scratch unless you were a chef in a restaurant
