Ouch. There’s a general TFO group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/tortoiseforum/?ref=share
But you’re welcome to the CDR if you don’t mind the strange inhabitants. The armadillos, on the other hand, are very comfortable to sit on, the Snow Leopard is strictly vegetarian, and the Wool Spider might not even exist.
I hope you are recovering well from the op. Don’t overdo it!So Hubby built Toms 4 x 8 night box while he was home this time. I had a complete hysterectomy last week so I was very limited to what I could contribute. (No, I didn’t tell anyone) He had to go back to work Tuesday and the main construction was complete. I just had to seal the outside and build the door, attach the lid, put all the heat, lighting, shelving in. We went with the big one to accommodate numerous tortoises down the road and offset the door so we could make it a double if needed. Son has been helping me. This thing is HEAVY! Yesterday, I asked my yard guys if they could move it this weekend for me and today I worked like crazy to get as much done as I could. They came just before dark ahead of schedule, and luckily I had finished all the sealing and leveled the spot for it. So it’s in place. I still have to finish a couple small things and run it to stabilize temps. I’m so excited though. I will be showing off in a couple days
Still can see no pictures, but well done!! She’s making her momma proud. [emoji173]️

How are you feeling now?
Well done on your team effort!!
I am having problems with pictures in the app too. If you select the post and then go to More > Web View, it drops into the website version and you can see them.

Yes, please, send me an invite.
Good mornooning everyone!
Hopefully I have fixed the hiccup with the CDR Facebook extension now.
It SHOULD ask you for your posting name when you join so we can match your real name with someone on TFO. It appears doing that broke the group. I think I got it right now!
If it does ask for your posting name, please supply it. If it doesn’t, please message me via FB or via TFO so I know it’s you!
Here’s the link for the CDR

Hello everyone, haven't been feeling well. Trying to shake this infection. New antibiotics are not agreeing with me.
Tried yesterday and today to upload a photo of Opo but it won't upload. I will try later

I’m sorry to hear that Ray! Do hope you get back on track soon... we will look forward to pictures when it works! rest up!
Thanks... My tortoise garden is really coming along! For me, it’s a huge accomplishment! On one hand, I can’t wait to get Toretto moved out because I’ll know he will love it... on the other, I’ll be a nervous wreck with the change for a few weeks I imagine... Lol! Once he is outside, I will convert his big indoor enclosure to a “double decker” and Pickles and Crusher will get an upgrade . They have really grown a lot too.
I’m feeling fine! It’s very difficult for me to limit my activities but I really do try to be aware.. I’m too impatient for setbacks! Now days, the modernization of procedures is amazing and everything is so much less invasive.
Oh yes I use cream too, but not always effective.
I find the antihistamines help a lot.
Clever girl!
Well done to her.
Gosh Heather, That's a huge thing to have gone through!So Hubby built Toms 4 x 8 night box while he was home this time.

I'm so sorry to hear you've had surgery, but very pleased that you seem to be making a good recovery from the op.
Make sure you take it easy and let the family spoil you!
Looking forward to seeing pics of your hubby's (and your) handiwork
Good morning Lyn! just try and stay positive. Miracles happen every day and Dr’s are required to prepare you for worst case scenarios... I feel that you’ll be continuing your outdoor lessons in no time!
That's quite a climb!
I would have headed for the bar until the lifts were back in action, but I bet your daughter slept well after all that exercise.
Yes the insurance company of the driver has been in touch and told me they would be happy to settle any claim and expenses.
I have to see a solicitor to get the ball rolling and hope to do that next week sometime. I wasn't going to claim anything as it was an accident, but it has had ,and will continue to have, a big impact on my life (no pun intended) so going to go for it.
Thanks! I meant to ask you the other day, can you post a pic of Lola?? I have been wanting to see him for some reason
now that I think about it, so you ever post any pictures??
They can be quite challenging and cover things like caving, climbing, bike riding, gorge walking etc but depends on the children's ability really.Makes me wonder how extreme your lessons must be! [emoji33]
Daughter’s class teacher has been off since January too, with a concussion.
My concern is that if walking on uneven ground is going to be a problem for me, it will rule out a lot.
But as with our river walks, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it!
Good morning Everyone!!!!
Most of my recent pics are taken with a 35mm camera rather than digital , but these are some older ones...Thanks! I meant to ask you the other day, can you post a pic of Lola?? I have been wanting to see him for some reason
