Leicester_H Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Hi I'd cut out this cartoon from the free weekly Waitrose 'Newspaper' and put it on a board in the kitchen. https://www.annedwardsart.co.uk/products/chef-sue-chicken-crossing-a-road-print?_pos=2&_sid=a51456ecc&_ss=r OH contacted artist to ask about getting better quality copy - ended up buying me five of the original drawings (not prints or copies) - all featuring chickens (artist used to keep chickens and understands their personalities etc.) Also got https://www.annedwardsart.co.uk/products/chef-sue-chicken-salad-print?_pos=1&_sid=a51456ecc&_ss=r Am very pleased with them - just need to get them framed. Happy New Year everyone, H 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 They are brilliant H - waterproof and so warm when it is snowy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 They are brilliant- I wear them every day for work and never need two pairs of socks to keep my generally freezing feet warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I wear them for long cold walks, especially in the snow, when I put YakTrax on the soles for extra grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
