    I  was  planning  a NSD  but local poultry  farm  was  able  to  deliver  hens  so  I  have  3  new   girlies and   hopefully  lots  of yummy  eggs  to  come  in the  near  future 
      Ive  been  on hot  bricks  all  day  watching  them  settle in ,  they've  now all  gone  to  bed so I'm a  happy  new mummy .  enjoy your  weekend  folks  whatever  your up to  take  care x

    Sounds like a great thing to do, jammy dodger - I've always loved the idea of keeping hens. Would love to hear how you get on with them.

    Hello cathybird. I'm well thanks. Taking it day by day and trying not to panic. Turning up here and carrying on as normal is helpful. Not spending so NSD 3/16 for me. How are you?

  • Jammydodger I'm well jealous, used to have 12 hens when I was in the countryside! Double yokers couple times too and the cakes were always amazing. Good luck and watch out for mites!
    Day 4 nsd yesterday. 
    Not sure about today as I need to get some bits to work on the camper ready for next mot. Gutted I bought it in Jan and not gone out for a weekend yet, was meant to be first weekend away in it over Easter. Hey ho, the money saved I can use to give her some tlc!!!

    Stay safe everyone!

    Good to hear you're well doingitanyway :) I'm OK, if I am honest, quite like working from home ... could certainly keep doing this even when the virus is finally seen off and the restrictions are lifted, whenever that may be.

    MoneysavingmadGem, you sound good with mechanical stuff, wish I was, very useful skill! You must have saved quite a few pennies over the years, at a guess.
