thefathippy<p>A small (for its type) lizard basking in the hot sun at the front of my house. It's either a blue tongue or a pink tongue - related but different. I can only tell which is which when I see the tongue! 😂 The pink tongue living out the back (posted before) is much lighter coloured, but we do get both types. </p><p>This one was only about 30cm tip to tip, so I'm guessing a juvenile.

Heather Evans<p>Having my two granddaughters to stay involves clearing my weights, step, yoga mat, bands etc out of the spare room. Pulling the trundle bed out from under the spare bed, folding out the legs &amp; making the bed. We went out for Thai last night because Fridays are busy for me generally &amp; I didn’t want to cook 😁. We did shopping today &amp; I took them home after lunch. It was a lot of fun having them but boy is it tiring. Now I have to do the reverse to get my spare room back to what it was. Just sat down for a cuppa (which I think may just change to wine by dinner time) &amp; spotted this 👇🏼on my back porch.
