Around £2000 now more will be going again this year. The work that Elmar does is amazing and the number of species of rare asian turtles he is breeding just goes on and on. I am looking forward to seeing him and Ingrid agian soon. Also Llewellyn lets see if he likes his young lady this time!! It was Llewellyn that had the headache last autumn!!!

I went out to Munster with Romski last September and saw Llewellyn:
Whilst we were there, eggs were hatching, and dear old Rom thought he had died and was in heaven. Last edited by Geomyda; 03-04-2010 at 04:55 PM. |
