[Sir Tigger KC]

I don't think we can complain about the weather we've had this year. It's grey and damp now, but what a summer we had. Imagine living in constant sunshine at around 30° all the time. No thanks.

Oh, I could handle it fine, I'm sure

Me too!

That would certainly suit me, just trying to persuade SWMBO that we should all have Christmas in Spain, all 11 of us just fancy something completely different this year 🎄🎄🎄

You'd all turn the colour of asylum seekers. It's just not the British way

Watch out for Spanish flags on all the lamp posts.

  You adapt. It is the light for me. Sublime. Could never go back to living in Tupperware.

I would hate every minute of that, but Im sure Dodo, our little Tortoise would love it. 
Time for it to spend a couple of months in its fridge soon.

Then we can claim benefits and free housing....

Mum says she thinks ours won't last the winter this year.  He's believed to be around 100, which is the expected lifespan of a Med breed.

That's amazing!
If somewhat boring. Sleep all winter, munch lettuce all summer and probably never even set eyes on another tortoise, let alone shagged one.

Ours has spent much of the summer running around the garden chasing me so it can shag my Crocs. 
Bites my fingers ate every chance too, as thats how they pull a mate.
Bite it until it pulls its head and legs in, then run around the back and climb on.
They are actually fascinating things if you take the time to observe them. Not boring at all.

100 is a hell of a good innings !
Must be a decent size too ?
Ours was 97 grams and a year old when we got it five and a half years ago. Its now about 550 grams.

We were stupid to buy a year old Tortoise in our 60,s. It will more then likely live for decades after we are gone.
It seriously worries me, what will become of it after that.

I'll still have years left when you're gone, Albs, I'll take it on 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Ungrateful bastard! Hope a cat gets it
