Laura & CTB Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Mine will start at about 3pm although i have to admit not doing much at work today as I'm too excited about going to see chickens next week ('nother thread in the Chicken forum) CTB is plodding along still re-fencing garden for forthcoming chooks - we actually got as far as getting the eglu out from the living room ( covered in cat hair) and set it up outside to see where it was going to go! My last comment to OH before I came to work this morning was " dont forget to bring the eglu in if it starts to rain" So hopefully by end of weekend will have run surround completed. Have a good one Buffie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're off out for a meal tonight (Rosie is with her dad this w/end) Tomorrow, we are going early to Stratford upon Avon farmers' market, then going down to London to meet up with some friends at Fruitstock (and see the Omlet stand of course).

Lesley Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Our weekend will start any minute now It is Jake's birthday tomorrow but we are having a family curry tonight. They are just collecting it at the moment as the Curry House don't deliver this far All the animals are fed and watered and only the fun bits left to do - like check on the chicks andtake corn and greens to the hens. Running around to tire Jazz out as well. Farmers' Market tomorrow - should meet up with Clare A sort of 'free' weekend for us - some Accounts to finish for clients but mostly Eglu cleaning - moving animals around - and trying to 'find the stream' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 We have decided now to go tomorrow too, so we should see you there Ginette. We aim to get there earlyish though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'll look out for you Clare! (I sent you a PM.) It's going to be hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Well, we missed Ginette , but had a fantastic time. The festival opened an hour late because they hadn't picke dup all the rubbish from the day before You'd have thought that they could have done that overnight. The toilets were overflowing and filthy too - I went as soon as we got there and wished that I'd used a bush or tree instead. The Omlet stall was busy whenever I went over there, and I bought a pair of ladies Omlet pants - they are really nice, I will post a picture of them tomorrow as I don't think that they're on the shop. We had some lovely organic burgers, Phil drank loads of beer and passe dout in the sun while I traipsed round all the stalls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Glad you had a good time. I think that it's bad to open late and be a bit grimy and filthy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I kept my eyes open for you Clare, but really there were SO many people there, it's not surprising we didn't meet up. Shame though! I trawled the stalls and enjoyed the farmer's market and especially the Herbs stall next to Omlet. I didn't buy anything because I didn't want to carry it home, but we saw someone on the tube with a Castor Oil Tree! Esther won one of the hourly raffles and she was the only person to have collected her prize! She won a 30 minute massage with Triyoga. Unfortunately it was announced too late and by the time we'd walked across to collect it and then to the other side of the arena to find the massage place, the slot had gone and they were fully booked. Instead they are sending her a voucher to redeem at their place in Primrose Hill Sounds like a trek to me! It was a great atmosphere though and we had a good time. I was sad to miss the London Community Gospel Choir, but we had to go. As it was we didn't get home till 8:30pm, then we had to have dinner and poor DS (8 )has just gone to bed. I'm longing to go to bed too - absolutely shattered! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
