superjules Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 At DD's dance class I bumped into Jules from St Ipp's who's on here too, but I already met her so does that count? Another mum at school, who lives round the corner from me has chooks, her garden backs onto mine and she has 2 cockerels too! Well if she can do it....... I find that when people find out I have chooks, the most common response is "I've always wanted chickens", or "We're thinking of getting chickens".

little chickadee Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 After we got our girls, we found out that someone over the road from us has some too, which we didn't know about. There are quite a few chicken keepers in our village actually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I watched 'loose women' whilst having my lunch yesterday, and it was Denise Welch's 50 th birthday. And, what did she get for her birthday.....CHICKENS!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolo Rabbit Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 The man who fitted our new boiler's daughter has them. Your boiler has a daughter? What did he fit her with ... oh, I see! Hmmm... Just trying to work out why it's wrong! I can see that it says the daughter belongs to the boiler but can't see what it should be. No, no, no -of course I don't teach English...

Olly Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 sorry, I feel bad for picking this up! Wasn't trying to be smart - well, I was but only in a humorous way. We all understood what you meant, Crazygal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
