Good afternoon everyone,

I can remember when dad and I took Jacky and Daisy for a check up at the vet's around the corner and Jacky was very good but Daisy made a complete mess in the back she was carried in. I also had to explain to the vet that Daisy was anything but slow. She used to bash the back door and I would take her to the back of the garden and she would be back at the door in five minutes. She would make numerous trips back and forth until she got fed up!

Natrah
I wish I could have seen that - Daisy sounds like an amazing lady. I still say goodnight to her, with my mum every night.
Love from Zola xxxxx

Dear Angie,

I'm pleased it went okay. I hope you are relaxing by the fire with Zola. Have you got much snow there? We've had nothing here and Jacky looks very cosy. Just been teaching but pleased to have my broadband back.

Goodnight Zola, Sapphire, Ernie , Leo, Angie, Amanda and CathieG

Dear Angie
Im so sorry you have to have all those needles in your head. I’m so pleased that Zola was with you. Do you sneak Zola into the hospital? Or do they know he’s with you.
How are you Natrah, Sleeping beauty, and angel Daisy, Leo, Angie & Cathy G.?
love Amanda & Ernie xx

Dear Zola, Angie, Ernie and Amanda,

I say goodnight to you all as well and I say it on behalf of Jacky and Angel Daisy. Jacky has turned around in the pet carrier but not woken up. Just done the usual teaching today but when I was shopping in Sainsbury's I saw a man looking just like my dad complete with cap, jacket and walking stick.

Hope you all have a good day tomorrow especially Angie, Zola and Zolasdad at that anniversary.

Goodnight Zola, Sapphire, Ernie, Leo, Angie, Amanda and CathieG


Natrah, Sleeping Beauty and Angel Daisy

PS: Jacky and I are okay and we hope you are all okay as well.

Dear Amanda and Ernie - Zola's dad keeps him under his jacket in the hospital until we get to the room where the nurse is going to do the treatment, then Zola is allowed to put his head out - but , of course, not allowed to go on the floor or anywhere else - just to watch me ! The nurses know, - in fact, several nurses managed to meet him outside the building one time, but only unofficially.
He has been to a lot of unusual places over the years - he is very good at staying under the jacket, and small enough to hold, still.
Love from Angie and Zola.
Happy Anniversary 🎉🥳🎉🥳 Angie and Zolasdad!

Good morning Zola!

Dear Natrah - we have just had our Burns Night supper - haggis, sliced and laid flat on a baking tray and baked in the oven until it crisps up, with mashed potato and mashed sweet potato mixed together. Then we had our favourite ice-cream, which happens to be made in Scotland. I'm afraid Zola doesn't get any, though!
Love to you and Sleeping Beauty and to Angel Daisy and our other friends

Dear Zola
You are very brave looking after your mum. I’m glad your mum & dad have had a good evening.

How are you Natrah? Thinking of Cathy & Angie & all your lovely shelled loved ones.

Dear Amanda,

I'm okay although I still think of Daisy. I say good morning and goodnight to her and then I say goodnight to everyone here. How's little Ernie in this cold weather?

Dear Natrah
Although the house is warm it is not quite warm enough for Ernie, she likes to come out and Cuddle into me for warmth. IsJackie still hibernating? It is nice that you say Good night to Daisy.

Good morning Amanda.

Yes Jacky is still hibernating and sometimes I feel like hibernating as well. Hope you are well.

Natrah

PS: I've said Good morning to Jacky, Daisy and all our friends here.

Dear Natrah - thank you very much for all the birthday wishes to Zola and his Dad (Richard) - they were both very appreciative - it was very kind of Jacky to zz too, and we hope she didn't disturb her sleep much to do it !
It has been a cold day here, and although we went out for a brief look at the sea,Zolasdad was unable to take Zola for a walk in the afternoon as he had hoped, because it started raining. Zola had a half-bitthday card today, of course, which I willl fix to the wall of his room at tortoise-head height for him to see (the card has lots of tortoises with very fancy shells on it.)
Love from Angie - and Zola xxxxxx

Dear Zola,

I'm glad you all had a good day but sorry that you didn't get your walk. Did Zolasdad have birthday cake? Did you have radicchio Zola? Jacky is very fast asleep and I have been teaching in Rayleigh. I shall celebrate my friend's birthday at Wagamama tomorrow.

Goodnight Zola, Sapphire, Ernie, Leo, Angie, Amanda and CathieG

Someone told us how to cook haggis like this - we had tried it before wrapped in a cloth and boiled, but it definitely wasn't very nice - however, baking it works very well, and the fat drains off -if we see a reduced price haggis after Burns night, we might even get another one I
Yesterday, on Zolasdad's birthday, we had roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. which was lovely - he does all the cooking these days, except cakes, which I make maybe once a year. I do all the washing-up, of course.

Dear Natrah - it was my half-birthday - my proper birthday is in July, the same day as my mum's. So I had a lovely card, and a very very big radicchio - much bigger than me, and an extra long cuddle by the fire with my mum - and she and my dad sang Happy Half-birthday to me.
Love from Zola xxx

Dear Natrah - did you have a good time at Wagamama with your friend? What's it like? I have heard of it, but where we live there are no places like that - just a fish and chips van that comes around sometimes !
Zola was a bit agitated today, so I ended up holding him and stroking him by the fire for almost an hour, in the dark. I nearly went to sleep myself.He was agitated because I made him have a long bath and then scrubbed his legs etc (gently) with a little toothbrush. He is fine, though.
Love to you, Jacky and Angel Daisy, and all our tortoise friends
