Thank you!

Thanks. Yes, I probably would have been talking about it some time last February, after I bought my dress. We spent just over a year and a half planning!

He couldn't be there, so my bracelet had a tortoise charm on it. Wanted him to walk me down the aisle, but he'd have been a little slow!

Thanks all! I know a lot of people say that after planning a wedding you feel a bit depressed when it's over. I loved every second, but I'm relieved as well. We survived, I didn't embarrass myself and I sort of like reality. :-p

Haven't been around a lot for about a year! Things have been incredibly busy with my business, and with preparing for my wedding. I'm now back from my honeymoon, so life might calm down for a little while. Thought I'd share some wedding pictures, as a few people said they wanted to see them, as...

Hello, everyone! I'm back from my honeymoon, have been for a few days but I've been ill and trying to catch up on work, so this is the first time I've sat down. Pulled my magazine out, and there's a story from someone in the US that apparently visits tortoise forums. One of ours? I have so...

Even the herbs that are safe to eat, Emrys won't touch. He hates them.

I'm still here! Busy preparing for my honeymoon...I'm closing down my company for more than two weeks. Scary! Tomorrow I hand over the house key to the lady that's going to be calling in to look after Emrys whilst I'm away. Leaving him for two weeks terrifies me, but I know he's in good hands...

I like to consider my garden to be a 'beautiful wildflower meadow'.

Boo! Sorry for not being around for just about forever, again. Life keeps getting in the way, but now seemed like the perfect time to return! I've probably missed loads. And, I will be rushing off again in a few days. You see, I have a honeymoon to go on... So, yes, I'm married now! Got...

Hello, all. Very tired here. Spent the afternoon with a very ill baby. Now I'm home, the office is a mess and I'm going out to a hen party tomorrow that means I need to be ready to leave the house at 8am and might not get back until 3am on Sunday. In other news, I'm getting a bit tired of...

Sometimes like this: And sometimes like this: And often in his hide, where I can't see him.

Look who's outside! At the end of February! In Northern England!!! Unbelievable. Last year we had a March heatwave that just seemed MONTHS early but meant I could get Emrys out for about a week. Today I noticed it was surprisingly sunny, so just went out to the shops and checked temperatures...

Great little guy! :D Regarding the clamp lamp - I used it for months with that mesh cover over before I was told it blocks some of the effects. You can just remove the mesh - it's not necessary.

Rental properties don't generally allow pets at all. Especially not roaming ones. At best you can get something in a tank or cage - I really pushed my luck with Emrys but luckily got away with it.
