bellekatz Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Well my purple eglu and two chickens have arrived this morning! Many many thanks to Johannes for bringing them up especially for me - I also had a film crew from The One Show on the BBC and Rajesh Merchandani for 3 whole hours!!! The girls were great - they seemed to have settled really well and seemed quite calm despite various takes. Still cant quite decide on names though the kids favour Tikka and Masarla. You can see the film on Thursday evening (unless they change their minds again!) on The One Show, BBC1 6.55pm I will post some pics if I can work out how!

Guest Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 (Changed it to link to the photos for you, as I have no idea how to get the photos on!) Why are the film crew suited up in chemical protection gear??! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellekatz Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 Ah well, they were going to film at a chicken farm and someone else's house and didn't want to transmit any viruses or germs - they wanted to be seen to be "doing the right thing" as they were the BBC but they found it as hilarious as I did!

bellekatz Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 Johannes did a really great job today - he even ended up driving round the block a few times with a cameraman onboard! Bet it was the weirdest delivery he's ever made!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellekatz Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 They were running very late - it was after 1 when they left us and they had another house in Stretford and the Chicken farm at Lymm to do as well - hope they make it soon - Im sure you would have heard if they weren't going to turn up at all?
