First Gardening of 2012


The tortoise enclosure needed a bit of attention in the weeding department. Didn't take long. From this..

..to this. Neat and tidy and all ready for the tortoises to have a little explore.


And after they had mooched around for a while, a bit of upright sunbathing was in order. It's sunny again today so they will be pleased to be out and about again.


We even had the patio doors open. My new wellies - Matalan, £9.


This is the view from where I am right now. Loving the sunshine, Gerard is loving it too. He was in the pet rescue for the whole of last summer so missed out on wandering around in the sunshine. He's making up for it now though, we hardly saw him yesterday! Hope it's sunny where you are. x

  6. Hey! Ooblick is possibly one of the BEST words ever. Where's it from? is it your own creation?

    How many tortoises do you have?!
