redfrock Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Unfortunately I am at home on my own this afternoon otherwise we would have been able to show you a cracking photo! Seeing as we finally have some sunshine I thought I would eat my sandwich on the swingchair. OH has taken to feeding the chooks corn from this location too. So there was me with freshly made crusty roll with ham and pickle (boring but tasty), and the chooks roaming the garden, when one of them spied me with their beady eye. Within seconds I was surrounded. Then I was ambushed. Milly jumped along the back of the chair and stood on the back of my neck. Pumpkin did the same and stood on my right shoulder. another six jumped onto the chair - 2 onto my lap - 2 were round my feet. By this time my neck was bent with the weight of a chicken .... and my roll was being hotfooted up the garden by Clem, swiftly followed by the others. I am now grubby, no doubt have scratches on my neck (try explaining that one!) and hungry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye&Ant Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 LOL I made the mistake of eating my lunch in the garden once, until two big feet landed flat down in the middle of the plate without warning Although it sounds nothing like the party you seemed to have had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 brilliant! Funny I was ambushed by my two earlier for some garlic bread .. you'd think it was brapes/pasta the way they attacked me for it. Right little madams when they want to be.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
