    Have been very virtuous today....no gravy, only a little dinner (roast pork, roasties and carrots) And I'll be having a salad for dinner.....but first...I shall locate the banana and eat that!
    Been enjoying being at home and catching up on sleep, am I the only person who gets tired when it's TOTM?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    beanie, I've been waking up, having breakfast, then going back to sleep for a couple of hours...I always seem to do it when I'm home, maybe it's just my body de-stressing...

    They're fine, The cats are still fascinated and have wandered up a few times for a sniff, the hens rule the roost though!

    The new chicken - Noodle is still freaked out by the cats because she only just met them yesterday.

    You can always tell when Dennis is coming back from his outdoor patrol when the warning clucks start.

    They are lovely to watch, they all have their own little character and quirks, Bella is totally freaked out if anything flies overhead. Nugget has a favourite place to sit in the garden she's also the most gobby one, Noodle is an explorer and Speckle is the boss and loves to strut up and down.

    They all hate having a dirty beak and when they come into the house they wipe their beaks on the doormat.
    They all love to listen to Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, when I put it on they sit down and drop off to sleep.
