Valkyrie Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Debs is still struggling - but I'm freeeeee mwahahahaaaaarrrrrr! Like Lewis - forgot to snap happy pics in spite of bringing 2 cameras - and then only the birdies - which were bantam Wyandottes - blue with silver pencilling - or was it silver with blue pencilling I wrote it down but my notepad is still upstairs and if I vacate I will never get back one here! And in spite of Debs camera snapping everywhere (thank goodness my hot chocolate hadn't dripped on my shirt)! Helloooo anyone in that head of yours Kerry? Nope. So instead of narrowing down the list of wants - it has grown instead. And I need to go to more shows and have the courage to ask the experts more. I was surprised not to see any gold laced orpie cockerels - their feathers are stunning, only girls - and a bantam version (want). I didn't spot the legbar either, but those Japanese birdies tails - gorgeous. Me wants faverolles for sure, and Belgian ones - it's those little beards that get me. Erin wants ducks. Little pale brown call ducks. Ones that have their beaks open all the time quacking and you can see their little tongues (reminds me of her - mouth never shuts). Had a detour on the way home via Leamington Spa. Erin was map reading. But it was very interesting to look at the old buildings - not been there before. Plus it was probably a better route because of the road works had tail-backs on the way in (and no signposts either until you were on top of a junction and had to into the outside lane ), but good run home. Something in the air here, because I had an allergic reaction when I got home - eyes really bad and sneeze and wheeze! OK today, although eyes are still a bit sore, but the nose is fine. Fungi spores maybe???? Chucking it down here today, so yesterday was really good for travelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleTree Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Afternoon all! Had a fabby day, thanks for taking me Debs. Was lovely to meet you all, Erin was lovely and so was Lewis' mum. Koojie what's that band called that Erin likes? Had completely forgotten by the time I got home, and trying to ask hubby if he'd heard of them without actually knowing what they're called, was a bit hopeless. I really liked all the ducks, especially the big blacks ones, they had a lovely green sheen, and purpley heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Afternoon We have relatives over from Australia (second cousins me thinks, never met them before) and everyone has gone to the park - Lewis was asleep Just cleaned out the - we needs a new WIR, its all muddy + 'orrible! I love the little call ducks! I'd get some but don't know how practical ducks would be in the garden The gerbilarium is here We can collect them whenever we're ready but Mom wants to wait until closer to Christmas. Was it these Belgians Koojie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Afternoon all Sorry been a bit busy this weekend, had a friend sleepover.

Valkyrie Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Aren't those little Belgians just sooo cute! Yes, they're the ones Lewis. The piccy of the call duck on the other thread was like the one Erin wanted. I'm sure the fellow up the road with the menagerie has call ducks - they make such a racket! Not too keen on the "ballerina" chickens - I say they look like they're on stilts! And the odd ones with short legs that look like feathery boxes (legs at the edge) look so odd. PT - the band is called The Blackout. I think they are quite good (although not keen on the growly/shouty bits in the odd songs). Erin made her way along the cages going "boof boof" as she squidged any fluffy bottoms near the wires. Ah well at least she was happy. And I had to make myself another round of sarnies yesterday morning. A certain young lad ate mine from the fridge. The text message he sent was "sorry, didn't know it was yours. For what it's worth it was very tasty". Hmph! Murray made dinner for us - indoor BBQ'd chicken with his special marinade. Yummmmm. Although he hadn't cooked mine all the way through - but it was only a little bit on one end.
