I'm playing catch up with messsages I read but didn't get chance to reply to but I will get up to date eventually
freespirit66 - I didn't know rats were attracted to chickens :O!
Though with our current mouse infestation I'm pretty sure we probably already have emThey've been doing loads of building work in the abandonned barn and well "swamp" (it was supposed to be a garden
) has chased all the wildlife in there out and into our house it seems. We were catching at least one mouse a day between the humane traps, poison traps, and cats! They are such annoying little things! They ate my bulb of garlic and sweet potato! damn them!! lol.
Thankyou all for the good luck wishes with the etsy shop, I've done hardly anything to promote it so far and 4 people have stumbled across it and someone has favourited somethingI feel special
lol.
I've just started popping links on pinterest, and my twitter account for my blog (very few followers) Not sure I'm ready to share it with you lot just yet, your a scary bunch :P lol. Consider it a compliment, I like to know something will work out ok before I tell people about it. My friends and family know nothing of it's existence yet.... It is most definitely the scariest thing I have ever done, and I've abseiled down 141ft :P
I'm house sitting next week have a week of arty things planned to get the shop a bit more full then maybe I'll share it
:j Happy Birthday Msgigglewick! :j :beer:
OMO - brilliant quote I can so relate. I feel like I spend too much time trying to explain to people that I just don't know how I feel.

ChrissyG - I never actually made it to the Armouries myself but my housemates went a couple of times they all really enjoyed it
. If you haven't been to Leeds city museum that's worth a visit too. they had a spice girl exhibition when I was there lol!

Afternoon everyone,
PIXTOTTS ooh yes they are attracted to the food i think, but i am so terrified of rats and mice that the thought of putting my hand in to get some eggs and something jumping out at me ugggh!! Oh that is probably why its so bad then, we had rats in the garden and rabbit (aviary) run because ndn smashed up an old caravan that had been in the garden for about 20 years unused :eek::eek: luckily we got rid of them and havent had a problem since. Oh well done on getting interest already on etsy, we arent that scary are we???? :rotfl::rotfl:Gettingtherequickly wrote: »Went to class and got told off for speaking dialect
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Hope today is better then :rotfl:
LINZ haha i always feel old when i say things like that but it is true if it aint broke dont fix it, oh i saw that JCB ride on it was a fab bargain wasnt it?

DD is still vomiting morning noon and night , i really dont know how she is managing to function, Her gran has suggested a spoonful of manuka honey so we are going to give that a go just a spoonful at night. Can you tell we are getting desperate.
i expect the insurance comany to reject the claim , i will do a back flip [mentaly:D] if they pay out .
On the christmas front ive managed to get a few bits and got most of them wrapped. I expect to be finished DD by the end of September.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
