Comments

OK - not sure I actually want to confess this but - here goes:
[disclaimer - all the dead things currently and in the past that have been in my freezer ALL died of natural causes]
Non edible things in the freezer are currently:
Two tubs of lush frozen gel stuff
Bloodworms for the fish
Said Guinea pig's chum who died later and we have decided to bury in a nice pot here
A Puffin that someone gave us for a friend who is a naturalist artist - for her to draw - its beautiful not a mark on it - only issue is that it is dead
A jack snipe that I was given at work today to ID - its there until I can get it verified by a bird expert.
IN the past we have had:
Eagles - being invesigated incase it was killed illegally
Lamb milk
Cow special calf milk
Eagles poo - lots of it for a pal who was researching sea eagles on Mull
Puffins - see one below
Corncrakes - for ex ex ex's work
Gold crest - being kept until the kids came home from dads to show them it
Mostly for research things - don't most folk have various birds of prey
Isnt it the same in most households???We keep food in there too. Just not on the same shelf.

Hi Lemon Tree
Ace name - GPiggies very safe - we loved ours - xxx
Thanks for seeing the determined bit - its difficult amoung my calamatous sp? life to see it sometimes.
We three are a v happy bunch - living alternatively on an island etc has been a real lifestyle choice - but it comes at a bit of a financial penalty I think, although I wouldn't change it for the world.
I tried to live on the 'mainland' in a town and it just didn't work for us - we were use to being out in the sticks on a farm - unfortunately for me Daddy had the farm and the job and the house so we left it all - but slowly but surely our 'normal farmy-island-life' has resumed.
My new OH on the mainland has a nice job and we could have stayed there - but we wanted our 'island' stuff back.
He visits when he can but thinks we three are bonkers!!
Thanks for your kindness xx
See guys - I am lighthearted and determined - Lemon Tree said so..........:)Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
