Im laughing as im typing, I said to my husband that its a good job we are detached as the neighbors would think we have tortoise torrets lol

Ha ha, thank you, now I feel completely normal with my tortoise morning chats

Of course I do! Doesn't everyone? I get more sense out of Joe than my teenage son!

I talk to Lolly too. It seems to make sense to me.
But I do live alone, so it might feel strange if there was someone else there to hear me.
I've not thought about it before.
