| Lol Tommy Walsh is a bit of a show, it was remarkably quick though, i was impressed, except the flat is now covered in tiny little patches of silicone... |

| Alas Matt has left the tape measure in his tool box out of my reach on top of the wardrobe, i fear if i reach for it i will be crushed in a screwdrivery mess, but from the argos website the length of each viv is 2'6 and the depth is 1'3 and its 5'6 high so you can divide that up pretty much how you like to get the heights of each viv. We've got quite a shallow one for Hoggie and a deep one for Caramac that we're going to put a big ledge in when she's bigger to give her another level :) |

What did you use to cut the vent holes in the back board? I'm not entirely tool savvy...  ooh and was the perspex stuff easy to cut? |

| i used my electric drill with a bit designed for cutting holes for lighting fittings. i brought a set of 8 different sizes and it was bout 10quid. the perspex was cut by the company to our measurements but i got them slightly wrong so had to shave some excess off. |
