Lost tortoise returns

30 June 2010 16:30 GMT

A missing tortoise has been found after almost two years - just a mile-and-a-half away from its English home.

Maddie Tibble's pet Lottie - who disappeared just two days after she had been given to the youngster as a ninth birthday present - has been found on a road on the far side of adjoining school playing fields, 22 months later.

The tortoise - described as in "fine health" - was returned to Maddie by a local vet as she had been fitted with a microchip.

Maddie said: "I just didn't believe it was her. I was really shocked I just thought it must be another tortoise, but I am so pleased to have her back."
