Hiya. Thanks for the quick response. Sorry my message was so rushed and panicked I'm surprised anyone managed to decipher it!

I have spoken to the pet store and the guy there agrees that I should leave the thermostat on a constant 22 degrees C. We're having really hot weather here in the UK and when I put it on 22 degrees for the night time temp the lamp is not on often as it is warm enough so I think I'll leave it on that - I dont want to fry him!

What does everyone else think? It's only 3 nights and I'll make sure he has a big bowl of water before I go. I'd usually drop him off at the pet store as the guy there will look after him but got a bit caught up in things this time!

Thanks

Caz
