    As I'm useless at smiley's I'm 'borrowing' GGs.

    How fab if one of them belongs to LRH - maybe it's actually the big one :T

    Dream on Aunt Tilly - the white egg is Miss B's :rotfl:

    The teeny tiny brown egg with speckles (weighing a whopping 15g - the smallest egg we've ever had) is Miss LRH's :cool:

    You'd better really appreciate that egg MWC. You're eating it on behalf of Auntie GG and Aunt Tilly

    Well done Miss LRH :T

    Will do Tilly - might have to fry it rather than scramble it!

    Thanks MCI

    I was in a bit of a grump today. My mood wasn't conducive to 2013 goal setting that was today's task...

    I work in a fairly small team - me, line manager + 4 others. Of the 4 others, 2 will be leaving in the next month or so :(, 1 is job hunting and we think the 4th is having an affair with the boss!

    Mr MWC made spicy parsnip soup for dinner. It was too spicy for me even with a big dollop of yogurt. I'll have to rethink tomorrow's lunch now as I was planning to take leftover soup.

    Is it a cockerel's egg? Sometimes first eggs can be just egg white. Years ago people used to think the cockerel's laid them.

    In that case Tilly and I will wait till we have yolks. None of those poncy egg white omelettes for us :D.

    We've been talking about LRH laying her first egg. Would it have hurt her? Would it have scared her as she didn't have her mummy with her to hold her [STRIKE]hand[/STRIKE] wing? Would she have known what was happening? If we'd known it was imminent we'd have come up and shown her a video or something :(.

    This surrogate auntie stuff is very stressful smiley-with-chicken-emoticon.gif

    Sorry you had a pants day :(.
