Question Where can I buy a Tortoise?

Yes, I know it will outlive me, but ever since I saw Blue Peter I have wanted one and the Nursing Home thinks it would be a good idea ....

where could I get one??

When I was a lad they were 10 shillings up the market - where have they all gone??

wow a tortoise, that brings back memories. Why not get a mirror and watch yourself drive, Miss Daisy?
