This is what happens when you start watching late night t.v. instead of going to bed like a sensible person - you bump into The Great British Sex Survey and learn things you really didn't think you needed to know.

But when the narrator commented, over the scene of a disconsolate looking young man trudging forlornly home through a park somewhere in London, "perhaps understandably, Georgio has decided that public humiliation is not for him" I laughed 'til I cried and shall now go to bed feeling more cheerful. Thank goodness Georgio found that out in good time, eh?

A driver up ahead was a bit erratic, drifting to the far right of the lane.
Coming closer, I saw that it was a driving school vehicle, still drifting, so I want to pass cautiously, and see the new driver....smile, or something.
Passing, there is only one driver, no passengers.......this EXCELLENT driver was no doubt the instructor!
I behaved myself, looking straight ahead as I passed by.

Hah, Madge, I had enough of gambling to last a lifetime from when I lived in Las Vegas. However, when in Rome... I didn't find any lucky ones but I did find a couple "not terrible" ones and lost only a little bit, lunch money amount.

Lol Ms.Madge, you are so bad!
It is okay Luckylu, no one is going to bake Yertle in a cake. Have some, it doesn't taste like a turtle at all, because it is a chocolate turtle cake.
How is Yertle today?

How are you today? Because I don't want to have to start another new thread entitled:

I'm not eating soup, but now I wish I was, lol! Mmmm...chicken tortilla soup!

Speaking of cake, my nasty in-laws have been visiting Dad (good times, gotta tell ya), and so last night after they left, I opened a bottle of wine, and sat down with a chocolate rum cake and a fork! Sooo good. I haven't been eating that much sugar lately, but I made up for it last night! And ya know what? I don't even care, lol! Worth it!!!

I'm off to find some soup...it was cold this morning!

P.S. How's Yertle?

P.P.S.  No, I didn't eat the whole cake.  Thought about it.  It's not a large cake.  ;)

Yertle? Where did it go?

Box turtles are official state reptiles of four U.S. states. North Carolina and Tennessee honor the eastern box turtle.[21][22][23] Missouri names the three-toed box turtle.[24] Kansas honors the ornate box turtle.
So as the State reptile, they are 'protected'.

Tell that to the racoons....muah ha ha ha!

Luckylu, Well, they do after the racoons give it a try. NO, NO!

Why, how many should they have?
Are you sure you even saw a turtle named Yertle? Lol.

Turtles can be very fast.

"Three-toed box turtles are known to migrate seasonally in order to maintain their preferred humidity level. In Arkansas, three-toed box turtles were observed in grasslands in late spring, while in early spring, summer, and late fall they were found in forested areas.[11] During dry times, they dig shallow burrows into leaf litter to conserve moisture. When water is available, these turtles soak for longer periods of time than any of the other subspecies.[8]"

Maybe it is hiding in some moist leaves?

Had a phone call last night.
"Hello Grandma, how are you?
Hesitantly, "Who are You?"
Confused, "Your grandson"
"What's your name?"
"Michael, I am your grandson Michael Grandma" sounding a little worried now.
"I don't have a grandson called Michael You must have the wrong Grandma"

Wow, I have read of an elderly scam like this Veronica.
You were supposed to say, "Michael, is that you?"
Then they have your grandson's name, and ask you to send money to far away.

You were so very uncooperative! Brat!

Your caller hasn't honed his skill yet - he should have disguised his voice saying he broke his nose in an accident and needs help

Mom got this call several years ago and in true Viking fashion told the fraud to call his parents and hung up

The Sees turtles are called almond buds, we tried them!
Sure that Lu could make better turtles. (chocolate, caramel, nuts).
We actually were on a turtle hunt and ended up there.

Used to be our private aides would try to redirect  mom with a cookie 🍪 or dish of ice cream which she does still enjoy

But since we've discovered an odorless coconut 🌴 oil at sprouts they're now giving her little massages to soothe her along with little bite size Mounds candy bars

I'm not a coconut fan but I got her some coconut water to see if she likes it

Put the lime in the coconut and mix it all up

Seems to me there have been quite a few screen name changes, and I did that too when I could not login. So, I asked my husband, if I quit the forum and logged back in with a new screen name, what name would I use?
He replied: "Quitter".
