Honestly, perfectly good joke and you have to go and say that. What's the difference between a lizard and s dragon then?

Charlie is a bearded dragon and is a native of Australia. He is a big boy and is around 2 foot long. You would probably liken him to Guy Branston as he is tough and mean and eats live things!!!
Waffle is a Uromastyx Lizard. These are very unusal and ours is a native of Mali in Africa. They need quite a lot of experience to look after as they live in exceptionally hot conditions and his electricty bill is...well...don't tell Mrs Mid Devon.
He is kept at 90' all year round. He is a vegan! and lives off bird seed, millet and a host of veg, liking Sainsbury's Organic Curly Kale the best and Hibiscus flowers! You would liken him to Euan O'Kane, slow growing, looks like he needs a good roast dinner but exceptionally fast and exciting to watch!

Cool. So, if I wanted some kind of lizard/dragon thingy for when Hammy the Hamster goes away, what should I get, as an amateur? Bearing in mind, I really like those cool little lizards you get on holiday in hot places.

You mean those geckos that are everywhere so you have to look at the floor when you walk to avoid squishing one?

Bearded dragons are really easy. They are tame and easy to handle and great for kids
Apparently the Beckhams have one, and if they can look after one, even you could.
Just remember they are not cheap, £200 for a new set up of a decent quality. Loads of good places for food now in the area and you can even buy insects by post
Suggest if you are thinking of starting out to pop in to the fish and reptile shop near farmfoods in Torquay as they are good people and will ensure you do things right.
Geckos and Anole type lizards are good fun and are popular, but not as easy to handle and can get stressed easily

Having looked at the highlights on the BBC I have to say we did ride our luck a bit in the first half!
However, by the looks of things I have to say that whilst it did appear that Zebs was offside for the disallowed "goal" to me it looked clearly over the line before he got there!

Quite right Troj, I can't stand people going off topic.

spent most of the morning reading this thread and admittedly got a bit emotional at times!
Although I didn't go to the game it was such a nice change to watch the highlights and see all the chances Bury missed, them hitting the post, going inches wide, etc instead of it happening to us!
This must be up there with the Wycombe result as performance/win of the season.
It really does make me proud to support this team - we really do have a good squad of players here and credit to Buckle for turning things around after the Hereford result where it was complete doom and gloom.
6 points off 3rd place - fantastic! Lets sneak into those play-offs with the momentum!

'Ere Troj, we've got another one of those 'off topicers'!
Marky, this topic is for the discussion of lizards only, no other chit chat will be entertained.

Matt, now you are a mod you have to play nice. =D
I know this thread is about lizards, but I'm not having posters coming on here being topical. Next minute it will be about topical fish.ferrarilover wrote:'Ere Troj, we've got another one of those 'off topicers'!

Had one dinner time today as it happened, went down well with the chips, mushy peas and pickled onions.
