welovemarmite Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Well this year I was intoduced to the world of chicken keeping and what a world that is. Work think I am completely nutty as all I talk about is chickens.... never have I been happier than when surrounded by chicken poo ..... and I am never short of an egg or a chicken cuddle. But the world of the omlet forum is great. People on my wave length (completely potty) who will never get bored (hopefully) of chicken chatter. So can I say, thank you and HAPPY CHRISTMAS to you all!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Happy Christmas to you as well - we all need a bit of chicken insanity in our world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Another big vote of thanks to Omlet, for introducing me to the Cube at Gardener's World Live, and to the Omlet forum for helping me to take the plunge and become a chicken mummy. I cannot imagine what the garden would be like without chickens, and what it would be like to open the back door without extending a foot through first to prevent three chickens getting into the kitchen. It has been a life-changing experience. Roll on 2010 (and possibly a couple more chickens...) Happy Christmas Omleteers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 My husband rang Omlet a few weeks ago - he wanted to get chucks etc before Christmas but we'd all been ill and work was busy and I wanted them when I had some time to dedicate. Also with building work not a good time. hope to get mine early in New Year - he was very impressed with Omelt staff. Happy Christmas everyone - I have found support when feeling low and laughed my socks off. I wish I could meet some of you but a lot of you live too far away. Happy New Year too and thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Palmer Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Same here too and not just for chickeny things. I've often mentioned something to someone, or said 'oh yes I've heard about that - because I've seen it here first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 A round of applause for the forum from me too! The information available on this forum and the expertise of the forum community is second to none I think work are sick of me starting every sentence with "someone on the chicken forum said....." So a hearty welcome to the new Omleteers and here's to a chickeny 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancing cloud Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Don't know what I'd do without all the caring, sharing and support I've found from all you lovely Omleteers out there. Many thanks to you all from me and mine A very Happy Christmas to everyone, when it arrives - and the hens and cats are very grateful that the "naughty or nice" test doesn't apply to them !

Chucky Mama Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 A big thank you to the forum from me too. I have got involved in all sorts of things that I would never have done. I got the courage over the year to visit Crafty FIngers & All Things Nice. As a result have got involved in the Crafty Swap despite thinking I wasn't very crafty ( I suprised myself) and have made lots of homemade preserves that have gone into hampers for Christmas gifts. I have also spent many hours laughing at my screen. Something that my family is now only just getting used to It is refreshing to see that I am not the only one with a warped sense of humour. Also thanks for helping DD with her various homework issues Happy Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 That's not possible Lesley I even have to explain to people who don't know I have chickens, that I actually keep them once I've opened my mouth and exclaimed "someone on the chicken forum said...." There have been many interesting tea point conversations too, especially when it slipped out that I was dispatching my own meat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Webmuppet Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Thank you to the forum. Life in the Webmuppet household has been enriched by the forum.

Not least of all the stick insect habitat thingy that Mr Webmuppet is currently constructing ( and the stick insect eggs sat in a container on the desk next to me ) Thank you forum and forumites and heres to an ever better 2010.
