Happy Thanksgiving 🦃to all My Tortle Friends🐢. And If You don't celebrate. . I still wish you all the best...🥰
Thankyou Marsha. We don't really celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK but we hope you all enjoy yourselves. My noisy neighbours are meant to be moving out tomorrow so I hope to celebrate that but meanwhile I was in my hometown of Leigh-On-Sea today and I bought the items below. The two big tortoises are replacing the ornaments that were lost when in storage three years ago alongwith the Victorian nutcracker.

Goodnight everyone

Happy Thanksgiving to all our US friends.
I hope you are enjoying the celebrations.View attachment 397024
It's been nice thanks. And happy Thanksgiving to everyone here. I spent the day cooking a 13 lb Honeysuckle turkey I found for $5. I even got the gumption to make homemade egg noodles after that blessing. I'll freeze some, make turkey salad, etc and eat some for leftovers tomorrow. Yee haa! I won't have to cook or decide what's for dinner for 1 day at least 😉 I'm thankful 🤣

Unfortunately no nibbler boat for me, but I have driven a car on one of these ice roads on top of a lake. Here is an example of what one looks like:
In Michigan we would drive our vehicles on the frozen lakes to get to our ice fishing shanty's

Well it's 3:25 am here. Rose is leaving for Prague, so she is waiting for a Uber. She will be leaving he we here about 4:30am. Her friends and her are going on a 10 day cruise on the Danube river. Not sure what all countries they are visiting. It was our plans to do this together. But after the accident I can't fly on a jet that long because of the fear of blood clots. Plus it is such a hassle for me getting on and off planes. Another issue is many countries don't have a infrastructure for handicap accessibility. Here in the U.S. we have the ADA( American Disability Act). Every country Rose has been to so far. Would have been impossible for me to navigate. She puts up with me all year,I am sure she enjoys the time away. I will try and send pictures when I receive.

Yeah, yeah, Ray--Opo. We all know that's just what you are telling her, and the wild raucous parties you are going to have and then act innocent and bored when she comes home. You could have at least invited us to some of them!

I was leaving that part out. Hoping you wouldn't catch on.
Everyone is invited, bring your tortoises 🐢

Good evening everyone!

Last night wasn't too bad and to celebrate my friends and I went to see Fawlty Towers The Play at the Cliffs Pavilion. Angie and Lyn do you remember the Fawlty Towers television series. The other photo doesn't do justice to the beautiful sunset.

Yes I remember it well but I wasn't a big fan. I think I appreciate it more now when I see short clips of it, but farces in general aren't my cup of tea. I hope you enjoyed the play.
