Default Perks of being married to a carpenter

Tom had put the word out amongst his builder friends that I was looking for some polycarbonate to build some new tortoise enclosures and tables. So this morning a double glazers van pulled up in my driveway and guess what? ....................... I now have some free off cuts of polycarbonate that was left over from a conservatory roof.

Now all I need is a carpenter to build what I need? that could be the tricky bit!!!!!!!!

Yep Its brilliant works great for the tortoises. I did see some more sadly my grandma saw them first and had them all but I'm sure I might be able to get one off her lol.
