I love me some turtles!!!

 

[Thornless]

Is Janie President of the turtle club?

 

[JanieDough]

don't hate

 

[Peter Parka]

Terrapins, actually. That could have been taken in any body of water in the SE of Britain now, the're everywhere here. Kids bought into the teenage mutant ninja turtle fad in the 90s then let them go when they realised they get big and can bite, loads of the fuckers in the wild here now! No natural predators and they eat anything!

 

[JanieDough]

yeah we have those everywhere here too...red eared sliders.

i don't know if they're indigenous here...indigenous???

 

[Peter Parka]

The're getting a problem over here, see plenty of them down the road in ponds in Epping Forest. There's even a resident one on the river Stort a couple of hundred yards down the road from me, been there a good 5 years now, always see it sunbathing on the boom.
