    Yes, we'll keep him & put him in with our other chickens when he's old enough.

    Actually, I think 'morethan' is a much better name for him....I shall talk to the children.. :D
    I'm not so tired & not so desperate..... mainly thanks to MSE :D so just call me Notso.....
    Yes, I'm juggling and I might drop some.... but at least I'm trying ;)

    Afternoon all. Hope everyone's OK, I didn't even turn the computer on yesterday and this morning there were no emails - not like the "good old days" when I got hundreds of spam all the time!

    So far today I've done some washing (hung outside), vacuumed through downstairs, cut the back grass and edged it and swept up and got a roast dinner on. I might get the front grass done this afternoon.

    Not on NTL are you- if so all your emails are probably in their spam folder.
    Gooooooooooood afternoon to all the flyladies :cool:

    Good afternoon right back at you.

    Cleaned all the scuffs off the wall and now it has dried you can see all clean bits where the wall was obviously dirty. So now I need to go over the entire wall - the big one going up the stairs.

    Notso - lovely picture - are you keeping him - I laughed at the story of his survival

    Toots, Diva and L-L - special thoughts and hugs for you

    Flying - I've cleared a huge hotspot in the kitchen - we have a dumping ground on the corner of the worktop and when said dumping ground gets to the point of collapsing on the floor it gets cleared! I've also WM x 1, TD x 1, DW x 1, watched kiddies on Wii Fit that DH got me on Friday as an early Birthday pressie and caught up a bit on here

    DH is of to work soon so I will be able to get on with some flying when he's gone
