    I've also sorted my 'to-do' list - personal and work stuff. I need to give myself some deadlines and start being strict with myself so it doesn't all pile up and get me stressed.

    Penelope Penguin set me off wanting more hens so we went this morning and got six new POL warrens which are a pretty brown/ginger colour. Not as pretty as my Marans but at £6 each they will soon pay for themselves. This meant we have spent the rest of the day building an emergency extension to the hen shed to fit them in with the current two. DH has been a :A to get it finished despite the odd hailstone shower. Fingers crossed they don't have a massive bust up when they get mixed together with my girls tonight - pecking order is called that for a reason :cool:.

    Hurrah :j:T:j:T:j:T:j
