Oh that was cold ... and I went round in a circle trying to find a new route through a housing estate (roads marked on map didn't exist yet), ended up going back to a route I knew.
Did I say it was cold .... very cold!!!

You know how it is when you're wearing a knotted hanky on your head, answer the door and only remember when you see the visitor doing a double take at you

My youngest is desperate to have some birds for the garden ... he now has decided that quails are smaller and that he might be able to persuade us!!! (He really likes ducks but I don't think we have the space and I hear that they wreck your garden!)
Several months after leaving my customer service job, I've just given someone my old work freephone number parrot fashion when talking on the phone and asked for my phone number
I suppose the question is how do you erase a phone number that you repeated countless times every day for 12 years from your memory.

Ducks can be harder work. Ex battery Hens are great, low maintenance, doing a good thing in keeping them alive and giving them a chance to live as they should (political bit over), lovely to keep and being that bit bigger are less prone to foxes than smaller fowl.
Smoked paprika for me, but I get what you are saying

My 3 ex batts from a couple of months back have settled in well and are looking much much better. My young cockerel on the other hand is still a complete wimp and terrified of the ladies
. I guess that will change in a month or two.Edit/ ps my bullying hen who was a nightmare with the newcomers turned out to be broody. They are now friends (most of the time).

Dorothy (on the grass) and Annie, the last two of our previous rescue intake, they're both doing surprisingly well and are grand old ladies, we've had them for over 2 years now. Dorothy is a bit of a bugger with new birds so I imagine we'll have a few weeks of pecked heads and pulled feathers while they sort themselves out.
