    It's as black as the ace of spades, here - we have just had an almighty thunderstorm - knocked out my internet for an hour, and one of our chickens got into the kitchen and left her trademarks everywhere :mad: :mad:.
    That is not a good sign. :huh: :huh:

    Oh yes, H - and with a few choice words as well. :(:(:(

    Wouldn't have been so bad, but the two cats were just sitting on the kitchen table watching her :rolleyes: so I'm going to give them a piece of my mind, too. ;)

    Floor's all nicely scrubbed now, though. :T

    Nearly slunk off the page bump.
    Darn hen Rog - I used to have an eccentric uncle who kept a hen in the house as a pet, she'd been injured as a chick and never rejoined the rest outside - his was not the cleanest house:eek::eek:

    Do you get the feeling that the hen was being aided and abetted by the two cats:eek:

    Mind you I always think the place for a hen or a chicken is on my plate:D

    A chap I once worked with found a lost lamb whilst he was on his hols in Wales and he took it home and housetrained it, and he used to take it for a walk on a lead even when it was fully grown.:rolleyes:
