Anyway ... she said the roosing bars can come out and have it still all fitting together and that a few people have bought them for ducks Might have to get one in that case Not sure if I'd rather have 2 eglus or a cube now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleTree Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hello all! Think I'll have to finish off writing the Chrimbo cards tonight, then I really must do some wrapping. Half way through painting some jars to fill with sweets for pressies too. Congrats on your new arrivals Lewis, they are very have you worked out what sort they are yet? I'm glad your friends checked with your parents before getting them. Been freezing all day, and think Olly's coming down with something. He's just fallen asleep again on the sofa.

PurpleTree Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 This probably a daft question, but I know nothing about ducks, are they for eggs (assuming they're girls)? or for eating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 Lewis - so you can fit more in! Have fun. My secret arrived this afternoon - a day earlier than expected!! Or part of it. Not telling yet you will have to wait and be in suspenders until then (of course the menfolk are exempt because they'd look odd!) Oh PT not Olly again. Hope he soon recovers!

Space Chick Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I slept well thankyou Last day in work tomorrow, and then Grandad has his operation on Thursday with his follow up on Friday, and so I should be able to relax after Friday. Theres a lot going on in my little head at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 Oh poor Grandad - I hope he's up and running soon. Well the tree is up - no decorations yet, but everything now out of the attic to be draped all over the place and gather dust for another couple of weeks. I wonder what I will forget to put away next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 2 ribbons and bows on the double doors to the dining room from the lounge - at least I took the cards down - er recently. The pegs are still hanging on them too, and one red bow on a silky embroidered picture. Not to mention a bag full of tosh that goes on the tree which has been tucked behind a chair and recently moved to the cupboard under the stairs. Oh and the wobbly flower (minus batteries) that dances to music that has been living in the kitchen. I think that's it. On the bright side less to put up again!

Scramble Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Koojie Hope your grandad is back to normal soon Debs I have now officially made Chichi's and Mum's christmas cards They look rather fine if I do say so myself I think I have gone slightly mad...I've been listening to the same album over and over again while I've been making them so now my head is all 'ahhhhh' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hope G'dad is ok Debs! Ahhh ... the secret Pyros were fine ... I set them up but didn't press Go because they wanted me to do the lights Ahh, but if I get a it costs more and I really want a Go for the ducks - because it looks so easy to clean out with the flat tray and no roosting bars - but wouldn't be allowed both, and I don't want to sell the On the other hand, would the parentals clean out a Go, eglu and possible wendy house I think (today anyway ) I'll keep the wendy house for the big 'uns, keep the for the little 'uns and get a Go for the ducks. Then in the spring move the little 'uns into the wendy house and get dinner chickens ... then see if I find a cheap on ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 Well I think I've caught up with everyone and all the postings. The tree is now up in the corner but needs decorating - as I'm grounded I'll be doing that tomorrow. Only a few days left till the winter solstice and then summer's coming - YAYYYYYYYYY! But for the moment it is 10 sleeps till Christmas! Good night and it'll soon be 9. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
