Look who popped out of his shell after near enough two years... 
Yup, It's Mr Terripin! (Don't ask...)
So yep, when he (actually a she but Mrs Terripin doesn't really go..) was in his run outside my mother decided she felt sorry for him, so decided to give him some space. We got a knock at the door 3 hours later from the postman asking if this turkle was ours...
So indeed, mother let him go again, and me thought he was dead. Searched and searched but couldn't find mr terripin..so gave up.
The other day I randomly decided I would go search for Mr Terripin, so ended up digging in mud in my bare hands  got about a foot down only to look to the right and see his shell sticking out of the mud..
Amazing he survived, absolutely amazing, so had a word with mother and shes agreed never to touch this little ninja turtle again.

So after 2 years, you thought, "I know, I'll go digging in the garden with my hands, I may find Mr Terripin!" and you expected to find him buried 1 foot down or more?
