    Mr MWC has his performance review today - his boss has changed the grade on his appraisal form to superstar status so I don't think he has anything to worry about :rotfl:

    Morning MWC, delighted to read about Mr MWC :T

    Are the girls laying more now the weather is changing?

    How is Miss LRH doing, we haven't had an update for a while and Aunty GG, Aunty Natty Pants and I will be worrying about her?

    Best wishes Tilly x

    Thanks Lois & Tilly - I'm very proud of him :D

    I'm still waiting for Miss D and Miss H to start laying and there is no chance of an egg from Miss W as she took early retirement a couple of years ago!

    We went to the chicken shop last weekend to buy feed and I resisted buying more chooks. I have room for another 2 but it would be more sensible to wait until autumn/next spring to increase my flock. Sensible isn't much fun :rotfl:

    Miss LRH is fine - I'll ask her to pose for a photo over the weekend :)

    Superstar status = 6% pay rise + 9.25% cash bonus :T:T:T

    Brilliant news MWC :T.

    Lend us 90k will you :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
