The Dogmother Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yup, it's Dilly - a good friend of mine in Norfolk. She's a great person and always sends us away laden with produce and jars of preserves when we visit. That's where we got our giant pumpkin from for the Omlet competition.

Guest Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thank you so much M'Lady - for your kind comments - very much appreciated as it is very hard work and time consuming writing up my webtsite blog every day. There is a link on there to my first blog - over 500 postings. There were almost 1000, but I deleted lots as I kept using up my space allocation! I tried to stop writing it - but get deluged in the three months or so that I stopped - so returned - on my on website! Just got back from my allotment with literally sacks full of produce - and just now off to scrub my muddy hands and cook lunch xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken deficient Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I think your blog is FANTASTIC! I now have Pekins too, and they really do talk. Bedtime always involves a huge amount of discussion - is it too early, who should go into the Eglu first, where they should perch and I don't know what else. Then one decides they need another bedtime snack, so they all come back out, and then it starts all over again! We should be getting our allotment soon, so I've been learning lots about that from Dilly too. I think I need to do a lot more reading though- I had no idea there was so much to pulling up onions for a start! PLEASE keep on writing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Thank you for your kind comments - it makes all the hard work worthwhile. I have just posted their antics today!

The Dogmother Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I love that chick-blog style Dilly Try looking at this one - it's written by my friend (and bunny breeder) who we got our furry girls from - some of the posts are hysterical: http://furrymob.livejournal.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 It took me a while to work out who Allotment lady was, but i pieced it together with the names of her chickens!!! Dilly, you have left some lovely comments on my blog and for that i thank you!! It makes it so worthwhile writing it, when people leave nice comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I love reading about Dilly's bantams' antics, I too am a regular reader of her blog, and I can vouch for how lovely she is as well! My freezer is still full of rhubarb from my visit to buy her run converter and extension ... not to mention the gooseberry jelly and chutney that she gave me. I don't know how you find the time to write the blog, Dilly - what with your mega allotment, and the card-making, and all the other things you do. I think by the time I retire I'll be too tired to do any of the things I've planned for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
