Fate has stepped in
« on: 11 July 2008, 11:19:40 »
I have had an urge to buy and Alfa 147 some some time and last week while looking through the Autotrader I saw the perfect one, Blue in colour, wifes favorite so easier to sell to her, cream leather, sat nav built in phone, Bose stereo, low milage, reasonably priced and local so I thought, if thats still when I get back at the end of the week I will go and see it. Got home yesterday and made the call at 4.15pm and it was still there, so got directions and went over this morning and the bloody thing sold last night.

Looks like the Omega will ba staying for a while longer ;)

How can a tortoise drive someone mad?

Not talking the mick, just wondering. They don't seem hard to get along with, and if they roam too far surely a self tapper through the shell and a length of chain is all you need. ;D

No, sheep are useful ::)

We have an indoor pen for the torts so when its cold outside, we bring them indoors and they've got a UV heatlamp, once they've warmed up you should see them move, or should I say hear them move :'(

We've got two Hermanns and have had them since hatchlings. I was going to give Chester Zoo a call to see if they would like them, as for having more, I have decided not to have anymore pets once the cats has popped his cloggs and the torts have gone, thats it, its too much trouble if you want to go on holiday.

Ditto.. If every anybody has probs with re-homing the wife runs a sanctuary for reptiles and the like... we live in this sanctuary, but would not be without any of them.

They are such a tie when you want to go anywhere though I must agree.
