Titan, who weighs in at a whopping nine stone (60kg), was found in Kesgrave, near Ipswich, on Friday. It took three police officers to lift the wayward pet into a van and drive him home to his worried owner. Richard Aston said it was a "mystery" how Titan made it that far as he had not broken through his shelter. "Maybe he teleported there," he said. When police called Mr Aston, he was not at home so had no idea his 35-year-old pet African sulcata tortoise was on the loose. "There was no sign of the fence being broken, and he can't jump over it - it's three feet high," he said.

They will be turning it over and putting their knee on its neck . Note who they use latex gloves as well easy to throw away so nobody to blame , surely they are not afraid of catching covid off it

I always thought keith was into bourbon big time in geezer butler's book hes always on about it , all those long american tours i surpose

Just looking through finished coin prices I noted on seller Lucido-8 sell a near fine copper farthing for £102 and yet a EF coin with lustre ( A really nice coin ) never got a bid at £100 starting price (Another seller) , totally weird. I also noted this seller seems to get consistantly good prices for really rarther poor coins . Is he shilling or does anyone suspect a rat ?

that 1856 farthing discribed as A/Unc looks like it's been covered in gilt as well

Keith moon a top coin grader ? I thought hes having a party with freddie mercury and john bonham .

Northern ireland apparently

1859 farthings are rather rare and are popular you could sell them till the cows come home same with 1851 and 1852 , but there is no way that coin should have gone to much more than £25 esp as the other coin was listed at around the same time There again ebay does produce freak results for sellers every so often

If you read what I said carefully lucido 8 's coin was in worse than fine (but described as good fine ) and fetched £102. The other seller had an EF coin and it never got a bid at only £100.

You offered £2 I presume

Maybe latant racism as well lets take the knee for him

Plenty pr****'s In Manchester - plenty holes in the road as well - I blame "The beast from the east" as long as its not racist .

It could be lurcio off" Up pompeii." Oh I have just had a look and nay ,nay and thrice nay

would settle for a nice view of the arno myself

Judgeing on previous booms and busts in the houseing market - it is still caveat emptor in the property market . I must admit the last really big bear market (the one that led to goverment interference in the market being withdrawn (As in MIRAS tax relief) was in 1990-1993 long time ago now.

Flash by name flash by nature - queenie liked him a lot LOL

I have never ruined a coin by cleaning with acetone , nor have ever seen a ruined cleaned in acetone coin

House prices have risen nearly 30% in my area in the last year allbeit from a low base.According to zoopla anyway. My god this thread would be at home in the daily Mail

I have seen that as well

Coins and coin collecting are a luxury and an indulgance , mind you a few on here certainly think it adds to their lives

Ruth shafrey looks really pleased - she looks like she's not seen one in years!
