COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Just realised I sounded a bit bitter there! It because someone I know did exactly that, for instagram pictures basically, and it made me cross! Rant over.

Not bitter. Bitter sweet ?

What about importing captive bred tortoises?

I think that's possible if you have documents to prove it's captive bred, a CITES permission paper, a health certificate and the tortoise has a chip implanted. I can't remember exactly, though I did once look it all up.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Whatever all that is... it's still been a nice day. Perfect weather for Sapphire to be enjoying one of his few last days outside.?

That's nice.
It's slowly getting cooler here, now, though we really need rain. Lots of it.

I think it makes us all cross to see animals not looked after properly.

We are maybe going into what we call our Indian Summer except we haven't had the true frost or freeze yet where I am. We usually have some frosty days in the beginning of fall. Then it gets warmer. We need rain too.

Nos da, Roommates.
I'm off to count the curtains in my bedroom.

Nos da, Adam!

Baack & a success. Was only going to pickup 5 planks, but we loaded up 8. Loading up 8 is just as easy as 5. I keep them up on my roof rack and pull down as I need, BUT, going to try and go kayaking tomorrow, so will need to remove them all. Or work really long & hard today. I need a helper, other than poor wifey.

Did you work hard and get them boards down?

 

[Amron]

Good mornynoon, dearest apiarists.
Today is the Bank of Lao Establishment Day.
So that's nice.

Good morning. Only a day late but I got here

It was a good rant, my feelings exactly

Were they all still there??

We are very good at bureaucracy. The paperwork necessary makes it likely only for the most determined. And if you don’t have complete paperwork proving the lineage and health of the tortoise then there’s no hope.

Good morning!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Dunno, can't remember how many there were before.
That's why I was counting.
I have four.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good morning, Roommates!
Today is American Touch Tag Day!
Which would be fun, but no contact and make sure you all social distance, please.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Crime in Multi-storey car parks.
Wrong on so many different levels.

Hhhm, I did a lot of prep work on the deck. Boards unloaded. Today some grass mowing & gardening. Remove all the Summer plants from deck, lawn chairs, etc.

Makes me tired just thinking about it.
I'm off for a lie down.

Good morning All!!! Took a tortoise pic the other day (starring Pickles) with nice sun and wind.. meant to share it but I guess I got side tracked so I will share now.. hoping you all enjoy your day!!

If it helps, me too. Cutting up & lifting all the old planks a bit labor intensive.
