txswanie Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Am I the only one who bartered with my husband in order to get chickens? I got chickens, he got Hillman Imps. 4 chickens - 4 Imps. I know, crazy. I got the better part of the deal, lovely girls and wonderful eggs. I do have to put up with "Ooops, word censored!"py old cars around the place...He's fixing them....honest.... Please tell me I am not the only nutter out there. Colette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tutti Frutti Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I agreed to it (it was HIS idea!) if he poo picked and cleaned them out. I don't think he's ever done it and only does the "get up early to let the girls out" thing about once a fortnight I get fed up waiting for him to get up in the mornings so fling the duvet off and THEN he yawns "I was about to get up to let the girls out..." I've been had! What should I have asked for??? Is it too late? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
