I don't really know what to say here. You've all been very kind, thanks so much for all your words they mean a lot. I still have some space left, but I am saving that for an extension to the hermanns and horsfields enclousures next year. Kate, if you like pasta then yes I can cook

:P
Pretty much finished now. You can't really see the wire along the hedge, but it has boards along the bottom and so they can't see through it. It needs a bit of tweaking, but I will do that over the next few weeks as the torts settle down.
Here it is from the bottom of the area.

Then a close up of the top area - slate basking/feeding area, bark area and the coldframe, which leads to a strip of concrete and then a small greenhouse.

See the tortoises?

And one of Bonnie as she started exploring.
