Gonna see if I can get compassionate leave out of this.

How did asking for compassionate leave for a tortoise go?

I'm really sorry for your loss, Tinker looked like a very fine fellow, and he really stood up to that box.

They told me to fuck off. I said it was a fair cop and got on with it.

We got a little stone tortoise statue and put it in his little tortoise run and half an hour later he'd broken its head off.

You've done him proud mads.  Hugs.

Slow and steady wins the race, as they say.

The tortoise and the madhair.

Fucking nailed it, lads.

Lovely videos, madhair60.  Clearly a wonderful character.  Sorry for your loss and sorry if you feel that any of my earlier contributions detracted from your memorial thread.

RIP Tinker.

Sorry for your loss madhair60. I know it's hard when pets die after they've been around so long. If it's any consolation, I enjoyed watching him ram that box. Really showing it who's boss! Classic Tinker. I just wish he'd been ramming MY box, if you know what I mean! Can't stop thinking about him RAILING my ass! Fucking the SHIT out of me! Again, sorry for your loss madhair60.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Still enjoying how dead your tortoise is now but previously wasn't - many happy returns

He looks like Jimmy. Mind you, there's not a lot of variation in tortoises. It's still a source of eternal shame to me that during the Queen's Silver Jubilee in 1977 I painted a union jack on his shell. I'm a staunch republican now, but come on, I was 11.

Can't believe you're all dedicating time to this when there's so much knife crime in Liverpool still. Get your bloody priorities straight

madhair60's tortoise, who art in heaven, Tinker be thy name; thy cardboard box; will be beaten; on earth as it is in heaven.
