The fish was that big?

The sneaky rain came from the wrong direction so I only noticed the raindrops on the window after it had passed over . We had some washing on the line which is now damp!

Had a lovely luncheon of two slices of wholemeal toast, one with marinated anchovies, one with sliced avocado, along with a banana, a nectarine and the obligatory two

Am having a quiet afternoon pushing some paperwork, but I will go out in a bit to get some logs from the garage.

Will also grab a hot water bottle when that's done, as i just feel really cold for some reason.

Note I called them hens as that is what they are and NOT chickens as so many call such fowl.

"Lunch" is probably a better description...

You know, for those of us not familiar with UK TV programmes, "Quotation marks" on titles can solve a lot of misunderstandings.

Surely you're familiar with that one, it must be as old as you are.

I can't understand why people choose to work permanent night shifts if they can't stay awake past midnight.

My recollection of night shifts was that I was the only one awake. I could have worked (noisy), but it was more than my life was worth.

One less tooth now. Bonus is I mustn’t exert myself so no more gardening today 😃

I think it is because dental treatment may carry the risk of infections.

Only if you can catch them, wring their necks , disembowel them and defeather before cooking. P

Forgot to add you have to hang them as well. Opinion varies as to length of time but one friend maintained it was best to wait till the heads fell off with a gentle tug.
My wife who was not bothered by a bit of blood and feather dealt with all that. She had brothers who were poachers so all sorts of things came her way.

Stromboli?

No problems with the dispatching and cleaning etc. I have a friend who goes shooting out Downham Market way, and I regularly get the odd pheasant or rabbit left hanging from my gate.

Catching though... That's another matter
