I think it's a Schnauzer? (spelling too???). This one has a reputation - attacked the post lady - twice. Thing was our neighbour called him over to talk! :roll: Sadly as it is a rescue dog, it can't have had a happy puppyhood - but it should be under more control. It has also gone for DS. Then OH runs away from most animals - particularly cows (and leaves me with them, but they don't worry me). The chickens are the first animals he has ever got attached to. See him with the bowl of mealworms making kissy sounds to the Peeps. :lol:

 

Feeling much better, but tired now. Peeps actually let me pick them up easily and without too much fuss tonight (I put them to bed before the big girls), we warmed their feet up too. They did very well today on their own. Sioux is much kinder to them, Patch is an old misery which is strange because I thought it would be the other way round.

 

I also got my arm caught in the garage fire door as it closed. Ouch. And then I dropped one of the dry stones off the walls (which have partly been pulled down and around for the goodies for chickens that can be found underneath and now the garden resembles a battle field) and it fell on the top of my little finger on my other hand. Ouch and a big swear! I think I'll retire before any other disasters happen!

 

Still I will share this wonderful poem that my dad wrote - his alias was Side Burns (because he was born on the 25th January) and this is one of many such gems:

 

Once while walking through a wood

I picked bluebells by the score.

Then I was fined for trespassing

I shan't go there no more.

 

There, wasn't that worth waiting for? I don't think even Pam Ayres should worry! :lol:

Better tell hubby if you run away from cows they often chase you especially if its a bull.

 

Poem is great :D

Howdie folks! I'm off out to see my ickle quilting buddy this evening. The world will be put to rights by tonight!

 

Plum - it was a field of young heifers and they were playing with us. I joined in the fun - they were running up fairly close and then running away while I just waved my hands gently and said "shoo you naughty girls". They did this so many times, but he had gone and was hiding behind a wall. Another time we were walking along a road and the field was up a bank and in that field was a very angry cow - probably had her calf taken away. She was charging at all the other cows and then saw us. Well OH ran - and she followed him along her side of the fence. I just carried on walking normally (well, me running harrrrr :roll: ) and she totally ignored me! Another one is walking through fields with horses - he hides behind me. I suppose I do make him invisible! :lol:

 

As far as the chicks go, the little bullies hogged "the clubhouse" (weeping cotoneaster tree) leaving the two bigguns sulking at the side! :lol:

 

By for now.

Love from meeeeeee

Not quite a "been chased by a .... " story but it reminded me of when I once burped really loudly while on a walk in the Lake District and a sheep that was behind the nearest wall got such a fright, it leapt in the air and ran off at top speed :lol::oops: .

 

It was well over 20 years ago - I have far better manners now :whistle::liar::wink: .

I also burped very loudly in M and S once (after glugging Sprite from a bottle). I was going up the escalator at the time and had just got to the 'crest' of the escalator and it just came out. There was an old lady sorting through blouses directly opposite and it made her jump so much that she fell into the display.

 

My mum still thinks its hilarious. :oops:

Hellooooo, I'm baa-aaack!

What a thing to come home to - visions of big burpers! :lol:

 

We were chased by flies - we were on a walking holiday up in Yorkshire and we visited a forest (can't remember which one, but there were supposed to be red squirrels there). It was a boiling hot day and from the moment we started the flies started buzzing around us, then we started to run (big mistake - more body heat = more flies). Eventually we came across a dead sheep covered in flies and we thought goody, we'll lose them here. Nope, the flies on the sheep added to our now huge entourage. I have never run so much in my life and we did 4 miles in just over half an hour - I was thin then!

 

Oh, and OH did something unforgiveable in Woolworths in Staines and ran off to make people think it was me. But one of the shop assistants shouted across to a colleague that some rotten kid had let off another stink bomb in the shop. OH was so proud with that! :oops:

I was chased by a Peacock in Cardiff Castle when I was 3. (It was my own fault, I decided I wanted a feather and rather than take one off the floor, I decided the birds itself should indulge me).

 

I'm still a bit wary of peacocks to this day.

 

Not burping or the other end, but I once had hiccups during a really large presentation that I was presenting! Not pretty! :lol:
