Nicola H Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I have to admit I waited a while before posting on the subject, I have a rather large collection too much to mention nearly everything I use in the kitchen has a chicken on it Tea towels, oven gloves, my rubber gloves even have chickens combs on them, I have chicken mugs ornaments etc. and who could forget my hubby buying me chicken world from ebay at christmas somewhere in the archives there is a picture of this marvellous piece of pottery..................

Popcorn Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Yes, I've seen those Nicola - they are good fun aren't they. Trouble with me is I get through rubber gloves like they are going out of fashion. I've not idea how, but they never last me very long (and mine tend to get a bit pongy inside too - think my washing up water might be too hot and hands get a bit clammy!)

buffie Posted July 6, 2005 Author Share Posted July 6, 2005 Glad I'm not alone in the smelly glove department , I even bought lemon fragranced ones from the mothership (that's what Mikey calls John Lewis and Waitrose because I go into a speedy trance on approach to my favourite shops) Legs like the girls running to get a grape!!! Don't we bare our souls on here, any chap reading this would think....Mad Bx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Hey - lemon scented rubber gloves, what a great idea Do they work Buffie? My mum turns hers inside out and washes them with the daily load! Now there's commitment to the washing up for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 Hey - lemon scented rubber gloves, what a great idea Do they work Buffie?!

fowlbird Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 I'm quite restrained really. We have a pottery hen like the one they had on the table in Bread (remember that?) and we have a sandwich tray which holds a cafetierre and two cups which has chooks on it. Thassall...
