Guest Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 we went to applejacks farm in warrington today and a lovely day out, then had a country pub lunch and then picked up 42 copies of 'country smallholding' magazine that were offered on freecycle. At £2.25 a copy that's £94.50 worth of mags! The people were really nice too and showed us their chickens, they have Cream Crested Legbarrs and also have Lemon Saplepoot bantams and have said if we ever want any just to let them know as they breed them. If we can't get a cple more ex batts we may get a cple of of the legbarrs. We had a lovely chat about chooks and growing your own etc. A good day!

Cate in NZ Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Sounds like you had a great day Poet A lot of reading to get through now though, with all those mags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 What a lovely way to spend the day and well done on the mags. Does that mean we won't see much of you on the forum for a while as you will have a lot of reading to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I took 2 to bed with me last night. I was reading an article from a 2000 issue about a lady who adopted some ex batts, when (I'm guessing) the BHWT didn't even exist. It's a good read, bit of everything in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
