Guest Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 we had an absolutely brilliant day! Lynda and her family are so welcoming, I can't thank them enough for their hospitality! I'll update my blog later with more details and piccies etc but here's one of us together. The chickens behind us were for sale, hence the very excited look on my face! I picked out about 7 but then prudence stepped in and told me off so none of them came home with us and here's one of me having pig tickling lessons from Lynda's hubbie thanks Lynda, James, Katie, Josh and Amy for a fab day. I still want to take Rosie home with me and rename her Olga! I might have to think about getting a Rosie of my own!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to those friends we haven't met, who have been so supportive behind the scenes, so to speak. The ones who've given me moral support and sent kind gifts. You know who you are too Thank you so much for your friendship, I really value it and you've given me something priceless! Right enough of the slushy stuff!

Joojoo Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Guess who we met up with this afternoon in sunny Shropshire? Justine (Poet) and her hubby Ian What a lovely couple! We had a really nice couple of hours sat chatting in a pub beer garden with chickens running around all over the place. It was lovely to meet you both hun, and if you are ever back in this area you are more than welcome to pop in anytime. Likewise if we get up towards Widnes we will definitely give you a call Hope you had a safe journey home. xxxx (Ash said hi too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 hiya Jules, lovely to meet you and Ash. What a charming young man he is, no wonder you're so proud of him. We got back about 5.30pm-ish but I've been out with my babies, I jmissed them so much! Had a lot of poo picking and brushing up to do, Ian's mum and sis fed and watered them but didn't do any cleaning. They'd let the girls out too (which we didn't mind) but there was poop and kicked stones from the path all over the place! Only just sat down now I'll post that photo to my blog either tonight or t'row. What a gorgeous pub that is, I wish we could have stayed longer. Ian's taken mum to the hospital as I was bushed and I'm better at cleaning the girls than he is I'm taking mum to see the consultant t'row so I'll see dad then. Again, really nice to meet you and hope to see you both again sometime xxxxxxxxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I'll post that photo to my blog either tonight or t'row. Hmm can you photoshop me out of it? I think I must have dropped a camera in a previous life as they definitely don't like me now I hope you get on well with the consultant tomorrow. Keeping everything crossed for your Dad xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
