You could speed up the turtles as well...

Thank you for the nice welcome, I discovered this place a couple of days ago and fell heart over heels in love with it.

My 3 turtles (Hannibal Lector, Jeffrey Dahmer and Lizzy Borden, rest assured, serial killer names not chosen for some weird serial-killer fetish but rather to emphasize the sometimes somewhat unpleasant disposition of the turtles to people who despite my warnings still insist on putting their fingers in the turtle-pool) are a little bigger than my hand, about 20 years old and living proof that turtles can exist for years on a diet of Chicken McNuggets, potato chips and shoarma (I lived with a bunch of students way beyond my college-years)

There should be a pick of the biggest one, Hannibal (22 cm shield-size) just above (if I did not screw up the picture-posting thingie

)

It is a nice place isn't it? So I looked at your linked homepage. I like the few pictures that are there.

What is "anti squat" housing? Are you a squatter, or are you an anti-squatter, doing battle with them and tossing them out of their homes to use for yourself?

Chinditz · 03-21-2007, 11:44 AM

Nope, we live in houses that are due for either deconstruction or improvement and pay a nominal sum for rent, this is mostly to discourage junkies and other vermin from moving in and burning the place down, overdose and lay undiscovered for a couple of months, or fire large handguns at their neighbours which is considered quite rude here. There are actually quite a few former squatters among us (including me before I, to my own eternal surprise found myself employed in law-enforcement and actually enyoing it) its a nice way of living, we have a lot of pleasantly weird people, artists and professional party-goers among us and usualy end up giving huge partys when we "take-over" a area.

And it is, off course :" Head over heels"

Preview is not my friend.

Amazing. So who is your landlord? Is it the local government or private land owners?

Chinditz · 03-21-2007, 11:53 AM

No, its a commercial agency that a friend of mine set-up a couple of years ago, due to the great volume of improvement projects going on here, he is now making money beyond his wildest dreams. Still bummed about not getting in on the action when I had the chance

Chinditz · 03-21-2007, 11:54 AM

Nice kids and impressive number of posts by the way.

That's really neat. I'd never heard of that before.

Why is Hannibal looking at me like I'm a big chicken nugget?
