Beast has found a tortoise in the garden. It's an active little thing, but we have caged it and given it lettuce and water, and I've been calling local vets and the Norfolk Tortoise Club to see if we can locate an owner. It is peering mournfully through the mesh.

I have no mournful tortoise icon, alas.

Edit: I have taken our shelly visitor to the vet. They will scan him/her (how does one tell?) for possible chip, and if none is found the receptionist, who was very excited to receive the tortoise, will care for it until somehow the owner turns up. I shall keep an eye open for Wanted posters.

I mean, will you ever have a better opportunity to take a photo from which to make a mournful tortoise icon?

Well, DARN! You are so right!
