buffie Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 Well just been out with a friend and she asked me not to tell her OH something and I said don't tell Mikey about bantams. We agreed to keep quiet Oh what fun but I do feel a bit bad. It's my therapy though and I need to keep sane:D BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine C Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 BBx That's what i do with most purchases, "what, this old thing, i've had it for ages" Me too, works a treat with earrings and clothes - not so sure about chooks though. But if I wasn't at full capacity the moment (well almost there is room for one more!!) I'd certainly give that reply a try Go for it Buffie E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Go for it Buffie. I'm sure you'll have enough space in your mark 1 eglu for some more bantams. After all Sarah had 5 bantams in her yellow eglu, before she bought the pink one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Mikey decided to keep a secret, I found out on friday, nothing bad but never the less he told me he had wanted to only tell me when it had actually happened. More keep quiet than keep a secret really. I said, was he saying it was ok for me to do this then. He said 'YES'. So there we go I can keep the secret and tell him when they are here, he says it's ok what colours should I have and where's Claret when you need her I am bad, BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffie Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 Absolutely Pam Not sure what colours he'll have BUT I will start looking at colours and see hwta he has. I am to say I haven't really got into colours and all the breeds through time limits I suppose. Will add that to my list of achievements for this year. Can't wait, how many days now BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
