Making chicken feed of my mortgage

Greying_Pilgrim

MWC - that dinner does indeed sound lush! Erm, YIKES :eek: to the snow though. Congratulations on the win - I hope there is some sort of remunerative prize on top of the credit/recognition/small article in the company magazine

bah to silly HR negotiations tho - and *vegetarian*, potentially veggie munching, chickens too But we can't help but love them still (the chickens - not HR) :D Perhaps one of the *aunties* will stump up compensation

Have a wonderful time in the US - isn't this the west-coast epic?

Apparently grade and salary discussions with HR aren't going as well as boss had hoped...

Never mind, at least I have a job

I should have checked the weather forecast before I packed - cold and raining heavily, chance of snow :eek: Today's outfit includes white linen trousers and sandals :rotfl:

Miss Gladys and/or Miss Beryl (Mr MWC can't tell the difference!) keeps escaping from the chicken run into the vegetable garden :eek: At the moment she's happy digging in the bark but how long before she discovers that there are tasty things growing in the raised beds... fortification required when I get home.

It's a good job Greying posted about the chooks - I missed a post :eek:

Chicken passports required for Mr MWC and as they try to come through customs he can send them back. Good luck with the fortification plans.

White linen trousers and snow - I don't think anyone will have seen that combo before

Have a safe trip home, Tilly x x

Nope, Liitle Red Hen didn't partake, she doesn't like rhubarb :rotfl:.

Well done MWC :T

Well done on the award!


Will you ever pack for travel again without checking the weather forecast first?!!

Thanks everyone!

I won a $200 gift card - not entirely sure how I'm going to spend it as I fly home this afternoon...

Shame you couldn't have had it ready and waiting straight off - you could've purchased some boots!

But did it make you feel like a million dollars? Worth it if it did
