Making chicken feed of my mortgage

The Girls are locked in their walk-in run so - touch wood - safe tonight

Back in the office tomorrow
It was such a treat to stay in a 5* hotel - and not have to pay the bill
Here's one last photo from my trip:

I'll get Mr MWC to pee in the garden when he gets back from his business trip (Wednesday). If that doesn't work then........

Perhaps this is where the Chicken *UNCLES* have to step up to the plate......... I can let you have DP..... I'm trying to size him up, wondering how much brown parcel paper, string and sellotape it would take to get him to you...... also wondering where precisely to apply the postage stamps...... :think: Could you promise to post him back soonest though? as we've some adventurising planned....................................

Sending a *virtual safety net* around the girls - and stay away vibes to mr fox - through the ether......

Gorgeous pic of the west coast!

Thanks Greying!

Not sure what my lovely postlady would think if she had to deliver Uncles and/or bottles of pee :rotfl:

Chickens 6 All safe & sound :T
Fox 0

I kept them in the walk-in run today and replaced freedom with treats (1/2 bag spinach, a punnet of squishy blueberries and a couple of handfuls of mixed corn/sunflower seeds/mealworms)

Eggs IN 3
Eggs OUT 20 (2 boxes of eggs laid at the start of the month given to colleagues, 1 box sold for £1.30 and 2 eggs scrambled for my dinner)

I've had a bit of a spendy evening... I bought my dad a coffee pod machine for Father's Day (an online offer from Costa £30 (£120 RRP) + £5 P&P) and I bought Mr MWC a book of stories and recipes from his favourite places in Vietnam and the new REM DVD for his birthday. I'm hoping I've timed it right and Mr MWC's gifts will be delivered whilst he's in the Czech Republic next week.

Chooks all safe & sound but not liking being cooped up all day

Today's treats were a squishy mango, a round lettuce and a couple of handfuls of mixed corn/sunflower seeds/mealworms.

Eggs IN 4
Eggs OUT 2 (I'm baking a rum-soaked sultana, banana & walnut cake this evening to use up some squishy bananas)

Can you see a theme developing here?! Mr MWC didn't eat any fruit whilst I was away

£17.37 claimed from TCB

Need to go for a walk once the cake is out of the oven

Will there be a chicken obesity outbreak now due to lack of exercise and the plethora of treats though?

Probably... they're already plump!
