    Crikey Mr MWC, my dogs have said you're only supposed to be loving them, not other bitey type hounds :eek:

    I hope your girls settle down soon.

    :j:j re tax rebate :j:j

    No need for them to get jealous Tilly... he was walking past it, not petting it, and it bit him on the leg!

    New girls settling in nicely with Miss Effie :)
    Miss Gladys still with us... just :(

    We were supposed to be going clay pigeon shooting this morning but it has been cancelled due to the weather :( still meeting friends this afternoon though :)

    Love to the new girls and hope Miss Gladys rallies xx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • Hey MWC - what a 24hrs indeed. I'm glad that you've got new girls too :D They do look lovely - and I love the 'rockin the punk vibe' on the..... Columbine? Soft spot for the bluebell though, I must admit :o I hope that they give you many years of pleasure - goes without saying, that those girls will be treated with so well in their new home :D

    *Ouchy* for MrMWC getting bitten :( no need for that at all :( Hope the tax rebate dulled the pain somewhat, but oooooof......

    Have a great day out with your friends.

  • I'm baking today :D

    There is a chai, apple & coconut tea loaf in the oven (smells fantastic :drool:) and later I'll be baking a rum-soaked sultana, banana & walnut cake and a beetroot seed cake.

    I won GG's fitbit challenge :j I beat her by a country mile... actually if you use 1 mile = 2,500 steps, I beat her by >9 miles :rotfl:

    TBH - she just picked a week when I had nothing better to do, this coming week I doubt I'll do many steps at all :p

    New girls still unnamed - must rectify that today

  • Is there a new challenge in the offing?

    I'm baking a lemon drizzle cake but yours sound way more interesting.

    MWC - greent sums it up well. Good heavens, what a 24 hours :( I'm really glad you got some new hens straight away. And poor Mr MWC :eek: that really is too much :(

    Loving the cookery tho - sounds like everyone is going to enjoy their meals, at least :)

    Not yet but easy enough to set up on fitbit.

    You can't beat a good lemon drizzle cake yum!

    What a rollercoaster! Hope all settles down and the girls are all friends. And that Mr MWC doesn't get any nasty lurgies.
