Did you ever wonder where the Romans got bread from? It wasn't from Waitrose!

Do you know if this sort of thing is covered under warranty or do I need to find a service engineer?

If this is where I think it is, the mother has nested there for years. The first time, the ducklings didn't survive the fall. After that, the people in the office building watched her. When it was time to leave the nest, they went out and helped the babies. Believe it or not, some people claimed it was wasting 'valuable time' to help her. The employees said it was better than a bunch of dead ducklings upsetting customers. So now saving the ducklings has become an annual tradition for them.

Some kind of softshell turtle. They tend to have long noses or whatever like that and swim around in lakes and stuff.

That's absolutely what it is. Soft-shelled turtles can really motor when they want to, at least over short distances - like '20 kilometers per hour' fast when startled out of basking. On land.

As an offhand anecdote, they also tend to be a lot more stubborn about letting you pick them up to get them off of the road than their slower friends like gopher tortoises. At least the florida variety has a pretty long neck and will definitely try to bite you a lot so you have to have your hands toward the back of the shell. You don't belong in the road turtle, go in a pond or something.

My experience (limited; they don't live where I do, but are native to where my grandparents lived when I was a child) is less that they bite and more that they scratch like maniacs. They have strong legs and they're not afraid to use them.

I have a new dog!




His name is Apollo, he has too much energy (he's one year old!) and oh, my god he loves fetch.

He also told me he needed a walk earlier, so I took him outside, and...



He just wanted bellyrubs in the sun :kimchi:

It's an absolutely brutal case of nominative determinism. His name is Scoops and he'll scoops stuff off countertops, dirt from pot plants, food off your plate, ice cubes out of your drink...
