Good Advice

Ok this is nothing to do with animals but it gave me a good laugh. I took this photo in a car park in Swansea today.

Very good. Sometimes we need a laugh.

Once in awhile you see a good sign like that.

Well it might not be about animals but it's hilarious and it's about God!
So I guess we'll let that one go! haha!

A very striking way to stop anyone accidentally putting petrol in a diesel engine!

Not that I know, but I imagine it really matters about the two kinds of fuel.
I write notes on the outside of terrariums so I don't make mistakes.
I have a Brook's King Snake. He is a baby and he is pretty, but King snakes react to the smell of other snakes. I need to WASH HANDS BEFORE TOUCHING! I might be okay while he is young, but I want to train my brain to remember so that I don't have problems later. It looks silly to write on your own tank just to remind yourself, but I think it is a good idea. Better safe than sorry.

My life is a constant string of notes. Here, there and EVERYWHERE!!

I sit here at my computer surrounded by a pile of notes.
On the wall behind the computer is all the incredible amounts of stuff I need to remember while I am setting up the Forum. I have an animal diary on my bulletin board to remind me of when I did the stuff that I don't do daily.
Otherwise I would not remember. I write down charts for my animals so I can remember when and where I got them and important dates(like when the eggs are due and when they might hatch).
I guess the good thing is that we remember to read our notes...or do we.

I'm a great lover of notes too. Notes on the calendar, notes on the fridge, notes on my hand........

[Catherine]

You write notes on your hand! I sometimes do that. Sometimes you just need to be sure you remember something.
I certainly need to write down lizard feedings. They don't eat every day and they don't eat the same thing every time. I can't be sure I would remember things right.

I guess cook books are just a giant pile of cooking notes, so that we can make the recipe come out the same each time.
I did a favourite recipe from memory, but I added twice the amount of shortening. It was more like pastry than biscuits, but it was too much like biscuits to be good pastry.
Three cheers for notes.
