The Managing Director Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hello everyone, what a lot of arrows when I logged on the forum today, where does the time go ? someone told me how many shopping days there are until christmas today! and my patients have started to wish me a happy christmas as they leave anyway hopefully we have time to be around a bit more now and we need some help with Another Important Decision!! (We also need cheering up as we lost Jasmine the cream legbar today and most people just don't understand being sad over a chicken but I knew you all would) So many moons ago we came to you all for advice regarding the colour of a new eglu... as one or two of you may remember, and after much helpful advice we became the proud owners of an orange eglu. Originally the plan had been to sell on our 'rare' if not 'collectors item' yellow eglu and have one eglu with 4 chickens. Somehow though plans went awry and we ended up the proud owners of 6 chickens (and my car knows it's own way to Nibley bird farm these days) then there was the unfortunate incident of the chicken that turned white! so we had seven and obviously the yellow eglu had to stay All well and good but then they produced a purple eglu!!!!! Murdo very nearly stunned everyone who knows him by making the decision to buy a purple eglu without any consultation but then the indecision set in , then someone said the Mark3 might be out at christmas so still no purple eglu ...... the thing is though does this work ??? I have to say I prefer this but pink was vetoed despite strong representation from many on the forum really I would obviously prefer this or at a pinch this but Murdo insists we can't keep the yellow eglu even though I think it will be a collectors item soon Don't even let us get started on what colour glugs and grubs to get !!! So two questions really a) Is there a Mark 3 due soon or are we waiting for a figment of our imaginations and b)what do you think of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 KEEP THE YELLOW EGLU...... We are a rare breed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 PINK AND PURPLE Well, that's what I'd have anyway . Don't hold your breath for a Mark 3. Could be a long way off . The orange and purple reminds me of a babygro Ollie had! Very snazzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Since I am convinced that will very soon be a collectors item you are morally obliged to hang on to it I personally think that looks good, but then I have to add a quick vote for as well. It's a little more discreet than some of the brighter colours admittedly, but it one of the best selling colours, so obviously popular, and it doesn't show the dirt quite as much as some of the others But then is exceedingly nice (cue Shona...... ) And don't forget or the bright and cheerful I'm not sure but I think that is already a collectors item, so that may be difficult to get. Overall I'd say the best combination is . Only my opinion of course Do you have a big garden Mark 3 ..... I'm beginning to think that it's an urban myth I still want one though You've got very nice patients.... if a little forward thinking . Mine generally depart on a note of "when's the flu vaccines coming in this year?" I hate the flu vacc season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 My vote is for orange and purple; two of my favouritest colours Mark 3.... who knows? The boys said at the September gathering that it would be around Christmas time *shrugs*. I see a squadron of pigs revved up and ready on the runway Good luck with the decision MD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I'd have to sat that goes extremely well with the for an excellent 70's retro feel. Otherwise I'd have to go with the majority on the and Having said that though I do think the looks rather splendid next to the I only wish I had the money to make decisions like that Overall I like this combination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feemcg Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Mmmm... definite pink thing going on here - pink eglu, pink inflatable egg-cups, pink apron etc - but I have a really good excuse (6 - nearly 7!yr old daughter)....and she is only an excuse, don't think she knew about any of his stuff before I bought it!! And if I was to buy another eglu (and i might!) - it would be purple......although turquoise would be nice...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Ooh, turquoise! Now that would be worth saving up for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
