i buy wormer in a huge bottle! it costs a fortune but does sheep and horses.[regularly] yes you are right LIR, my olden BARNEY TB has fewer teeth at the front now, he was a dressage/show horse before, stabled, bored and cribbed....... when i got him the sight of a field was almost too much for the poor fella, couldnt understand he was FREE !! i have had a worm count done and it was fine,so will continue as is hopefully....

Do you mind if I pm about Barney? Its a bit nosey so you can tell me to mind my own business if you like

Rummer, how fascinating! Do you use your degree now? I'd really value your input on what we do and how we can do better still!

Someone just put an order in for some chickens. I should be delighted, but I'm going to find it really hard to sell them.:(

well i am back with nothing:rotfl:

it doesnt help that i feel rough... with the lurgy... itchy eyes bunged up nose...

managed to get to Matalan, thought i could get some stocking fillers etc, and also 'pinch' some ideas for some crafted gifts....

I really do feel like a grumpy old woman....:rotfl:

people were just putting all sorts of carp in their trollies.. a chainstore's dream customer.... put anything on the shelf, and they will panick buy it...

decided to put my basket down, and walk out...

the annoying thing, that was me a few years ago, when the kids were small...

I normally do the main pressie thing on-line, and hten the stocking fillers in the shops, but not too sure if i am leaving it a bit late, for delivery.. plus i seriously got to watch waht i spend over the next few weeks....as my money is needed elsewhere...

Alifie.... Hubby wants to go and see wars of the world in the CIA in cardiff, it suposed to be really good...... Rhydian from the X factor is in it... but the tickets are expensive, and for 4 of us to go,, we will have to give it a miss, BUT My Chemical Romance are touring again and are in the CIA in feb.... so might go and see them again...

felt like an old rocking granny in there, with all the kids....but at least the pub round the corner was empty so we could have a pre- gig drink:beer:

right going to sort my sewing machine out and make some cushions...

Go on, spoil yourself! :cool:

'Twas the same with me when the Who were playing Ashton Gate at the start of their two year tour in 2006.....
"What!" I said,"tickets are £45 each!!!"

(Last time I saw them, it was 50p at a rehearsal gig in Bath, and in the early days at the Marquee Club it was 25p. OK, The Isle of Wight/Albert Hall and a few others would have been more.)

Anyway, DW said: "They'll be past it soon,even if you're not. Go on, could be your last chance!"

So I booked up, we all went and it was a fantastic evening. :):)

Looks like she may have been right too.

I can do. (See I'm putting a brave face on it). The only pure breds I'll have for sale next year I think are cream legbarrs, but I'll have a fair few legbarr cochin crosses I hope and some indeterminate hybrids could also be arranged (They'll be a mixture of maran/leggbar/cochin). I bought a new incubator last year, so I should really have it in use more . The good thing about cream legbarrs for sale is you can tell from hatching what sex they are.

edit: alfie if you want some of my crossbreeds or legbars tell me how many and I can cook them escpecially for you after christmas/early in the NY.

i must admit i dont pay for the tickets... boyfriend does !! [he has his uses !:rotfl:] he has suggested some concerts that iv said NO to tho....deep purple ?? i am half expecting this scene of geriatric men shuffling out on stage ..... i think id rather remember how they WERE !
i always go to the IOW festival with a girlie mate. but we dont camp now !! i have a friend who has a fab holiday home in sandown so we leave site at 1am, go there, chill and go washed and fed next day for another round of acting like we were still 18 !!:rotfl:
