Top pics. Is he a rescue tort? (sorry if I've missed his story)

Awww thanks for all your comments guys - he is rather gorgeous aint he!!!

No he wasn't a rescue tortoise - I bought him from another member on here - hubby had just said okay you can get another one, I came in, sat at the pc and bang there was the advert just been posted. I spoke to his previous owner who happened to be coming to Cornwall a few weeks after and he hand delivered him! We'd been putting pound coins and 50p's in a pot and I had 6.50 left over after paying for him!!! Mr Harries was definately meant to be with me and I made a couple of lovely new friends as well - couldn't have been any better!!!!!
