Lesley Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 I think there will be plenty of mud wallows - the weather forecast is looking pretty suspect at the moment All the chat about bringing shovels is because Carl and I are holding a small get-together here tomorrow. Mostly for local Eglu owners but also some from further away that I met last year when the forum was very small. I'm sorry it wasn't an open invitation - perhaps next year I hope I haven't missed any locals - if I have and you'd like to visit sometime, please just send me a PM. Photos and more chat on here to mark the event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly for local Eglu owners but also some from further away that I met last year when the forum was very small. I hope the weather's nice for you! I'm having a get-together myself tomorrow - a (relatively) civilised hen night at home with some girlfriends One of them is even a fellow eglu-owner (when I got mine, I knew she had chickens but she hadn't mentioned the eglu) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wild, just margaritas and Mexican-themed food, plus a chick-flick on DVD - and lots of hysterical laughter, if our normal get-togethers are anything to go by!
