COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

Can we have wine with the cheese?

Welcome to the CDR.

Pull up an armadillo and Montgomery will be around to offer you a beverage of your choice, as long it is of the soft variety. For the hard stuff you will need to order from the One Legged Pirate or Heather .

If you see a snow leopard don't worry she only eats carrots. Poke a jelly fish if you need a little bit of light. There are knitted gloves, scarves and underwear in corner 7 knitted by the Wool Spider (if she exits) and watch out for the hedghogs. If you stand on one it will be very painful.

We are a bunch of international people who have become friends and like to gossip about everything under the sun, snow, sleet, frost, fog, rain, thunder, you name it and we are talking about it or have already talked about it.

I am Carol from Cape Town South Africa.

Just join in and have fun ?

Phoenix is around a year old, right? So he still has some growing to do.

I don't remember where I read it, but somewhere I read that male beardies tend to be longer, but the females are more heavily bodied.

Okay that might explain it then.

 

[CarolM]

What the Brits call chips (as in fish and chips), we Americans call fries (think steak fries).
What the Brits call crisps, we Americans call potato chips.

We just call them chips here. For fries as well. so sometimes we have to explain which one we actually mean. LOL

 

[CarolM]

He will grow. But he won’t be as big as my girl. The males are smaller than the females. Yours is only a year old? Still got a couple of years of growing to do. Affina is 8 in December. She is fully grown. Males tend to be smaller and thinner in the face. Affina is just a fatty ?

Okay cool. Good to know.

Well all caught up again and it is home time for me again. Stop at the shop for supper and then home to do chores and get the worms and roaches all set up.

Chat either later or tomorrow. Depends on how it goes.

I used to have a beardie when I was 15, he died a while ago ?. I’ve thought about bringing another in the house, husband would never allow it. With 2 dogs, 1 cat, 6 horses, 2 torts, 18 cows, 5 pigs, and 4 donkeys why would he? We have quite a farm.

Wowzer ?

 

[Golden Greek Tortoise 567]

Yep, we live 20 minutes from the ranch and these days we haven’t been going a lot. One of my friends takes the kids and they go do all the work. That’s what kids are good for, well at least they’re paying back all the money we spent on them over the years with good old child labor! ?

 

[Pastel Tortie]

Unless it’s a big ol’ portion of Fish-n-Chips - then no explanation necessary,

Horses cows pigs and donkeys don’t count because they are outside!!!! (I think???) lol... sometimes it’s debatable here.. I had a miniature horse walk into the mud room on a concrete floor one time... THAT WAS A DISASTER! All 4 hooves went in different directions and the poor thing couldn’t keep her feet from sliding out from under neath her...?
