Can't say I have.
Had a few smoking/flaming ones, they get to a good size before going bang

Once got 33 out of someone who'd been camping, amazing the places they can hide

[tode]

That's what happens when you spend too much time in the long grass      

[AmandaH]

You people are sick 

Says the woman who wants to keep a tortoise in a cat box!

[tode]

Try keeping it in the bath* :  I'm sure Plod wouldn't get out of that     

(  *Empty, of course     )

[AmandaH]

No, he wouldn't get out but he'd poo in there.  Ugh.

I think perhaps I'm just going to have to post him back to MIL in Australia...

[too many girls]

you can't do that, it's too warm in Aussie

[tode]

You could try buying him a very large hamster-wheel   

[AmandaH]

No way, he'd just see the wheel as another way to torment me.  Imagine it - squeak, squeak, squeak, as the wheel goes round.  I'd go demented!

Hmmm.

Perhaps I am getting a little paranoid about this tortoise...

[tode]

It would appear so  . . . unless it's the beginning of a great love.   

[Rubellite]

Aw, if I were only closer, I'd take him from you for the duration...............except that, as I recall from childhood, the family dog viewed my tortoises as walking bones 
I doubt that the current gang would view them otherwise

"Oh mum thankyou, this is taking the raw food diet to a whole new level"  Yep, I can see the fun of a tortoise to a dog 

[AmandaH]

Oh Rubellite, you're only in Essex.  I can be there in, oh, about an hour?

[Caralou]
