Willow Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I've just booked myself onto the Hook course on 5th April Lesley I see you are on that course - it'll be nice to meet you Any other omletters on it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi Patricia! *waves* - yes, we're still on that one as we can't make it to the Sheffield one because of lambing. I don't know if anyone else is on that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HENthusiastic Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I still don't want to come oh no. Far too scary for me. But that doesn't stop me being that you are all having fun arranging a meeting that I'm not coming to . So I thought I'd just stick my nose into this thread again! For no particular reason.

Egluntyne Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 That sounds a good idea. You could do a bit of retail therapy at Meadowhell whilst we are all weilding our knives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madchook Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I'm pretty sure a chainsaw would make a neater job than my first attempt last week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HENthusiastic Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 You stop it with your shameless encouraging. I shall stay well away and only meet up with any of you after a reasonable period of time has passed. That way I will be able to hear all about the course, but with a certain distance to the telling. I will hopefully get to hear the watered down version, without the whole horror of the gory bits (I still recon Mostin should stuff her chicken in a bag pre crunch time and make that her much longed for chicken of fate ) Room for one more Mostin??

mostin Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 (I still recon Mostin should stuff her chicken in a bag pre crunch time and make that her much longed for chicken of fate ) Room for one more Mostin?? Always room for more (as far as I'm concerned anyway). I'll take a really big bag with me in case i can't do the deed .

Guest Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 just thought, are her chickens free range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAJ Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 just thought, are her chickens free range? Never thought to ask, but I am sure they are - as well as her chicken website there is a more general farm website http://www.hookfarm.net/page_1226052311859.html - given the pigs are free range, as are the layers I cannot imagine the meat birds are anything but free range. I still cannot imagine how many she will have to bring up north (2 per person) for the course - half of which she will have to have killed and plucked at least a day beforehand so they are ready for gutting. Also if you look at her two-page article in March Practical Poultry - she wouldn't have 'mud management' issues if they were not freerange.
