On a more serious note, I've had a phishing email supposedly from Amazon this morning:mad:, so watch out in case you have one too.

Also had another from delightfully named, Penny Pingleton, a member of our local Freegle group.

This is our hatch from cotton eye jojo, silky m and f not sure about the others, certainly one male. I have just not bothered checking yet. Two are very clearly our own coming back, but what is the brown one alfie? Its a nice bird.

The silkies and the likely hen of our stock via alfie are as big as jojo, the cuckoo and the brown one bigger than her.

LIR ....the brown one may be from an "american " chook that we ended up with [given a pair who now have thier own chicks ] they were free range with "yours" at the time, we just seperated to breed true.
they are very bold strong chooks, very striking in looks...toughies too..cant get near her chicks who are BIG !!

ive been leaf blowing this morning for old lady. filled 6 bin bags from her court yard [neighbours eucalyptus tree !] , had a cuppa,biskwit and a good gossip with her and she was happy..:)

works great he said. used to do the grounds of a holiday caravan park. what do you reckon its worth..???

Still not sure but burdock still looks most likely.

Now if only you'd have had a photoshoot close up of Mabel next to a flowerhead, then a leaf , then a ...............:D

Guess Dave may be able to price up the mower.

Just had a giggle watching the chooks following DW round the garden, just like they were on leads:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I was going to say burdock too, but it looks a bit skinny for one of those, maybe? None here to compare with ATM.

Mower about £1k in good nick, but it's a specialist machine, so might well sell for less. People who have large playing field-type areas to cut, have wallets to match and might only go secondhand from a reputable dealer.
