This evening I'm helping B despatch his Indian Game hen . She'll be roasted for Sunday lunch.

[moochoo]

Good luck. Let us know how you get on....maybe in the self sufficiency bit though (don't want to upset anyone just wandering past)

[poachedegg]

Good luck - whose actually doing the deed, you or B?

[Jules.]

I think B

[cluckbok]

Ooooerr rather B than me!

[The Dogmother]

You'll be fine Jules.

[mostin]

Good luck. Just don't get as carried away as I did .

 

Let us all know how it goes, and if everything we learned comes flowing back. The course seems a long time ago now

[Lesley]

I've just popped this into the Self Sufficiency section........

 

I hope it all went well Jules?

[Redwing]

How did you get on?

[poachedegg]

How did it go?

[Jules.]

Der caught the hen as she was proving elusive to both B & me.

B did the deed, but unfortunately "did a Mostin" & took her head off.

She was really easy to pluck, took less than 1/2 hour, & she has yet to be gutted.

 

Der brought her foot home, & terrified the girls at his youth club last night with it

We told him not to take it there with him

 

Edited to say thanks for moving my post to the correct part of the forum

 

I didn't realise I might cause upset by putting this in "chickens", & there was certainly non intended x

Glad all the plucking and everything went ok. I hope "doing a mostin" isn't going to become part of the omlet lexicon . Somehow I imagined any legacy I would create being a bit more........well..........sophisticated .

 

Let us all know how the gutting and cooking go too .

Sorry Mostin, but it's quite a good one to use - less descriptive of what actually happens! I had to ask a farmer friend to despatch one of mine and he 'did a mostin' too.

I'm just sort of glad (in a weird way) that it's happened to other people too, and at least I knew mine was definitely "gone" .

HI Mostin

 

I did a course last summer. I was second in the circle to do the deed. The girl who volunteered to go first pulled too hard, with the Unfortunate Result.

 

If it hadn't been her, it would have been the next person (me). It's only when you see someone do it and see how easily it happens that you can see that yourealy DON'T need to pull very hard.

 

So, if it hadn't been you, it would have been someone else in your group. I bet Alison gets it on almost every course.

I know what you mean - he was most apologetic, but at least I knew it was 'done'

[poachedegg]

Glad everything went ok! Der certainly knows how to impress the girls!!

[mostin]

She did say that it happens on almost every course , but that it's usually a bloke . I guess the adrenalin was just pumping that day.

Yes, it's very definite isn't it .

[Jules.]

To those of you who asked when was she being gutted & how did she taste I can't tell you, as I don't know. She should be being eaten today at B's house.

 

We're having roast lamb in our house today

Should all be ready at 1.30- anyone coming?

[Redwing]

I'm heading north and emailing from the car Jules.....

[poachedegg]

*door bell rings at Jules house* - am I too late?

[Jules.]

Sorry, we finished eating at 2.30

 

And, it was all YUM

[mostin]

, I missed out . I wasn't safe to drive anyway .

[moochoo]

Well done Jules (and B). It's good to know that "doing a Mostin" could happen to us all Hope B and his family enjoy their dinner.
