She did it!!!
Trudy/Judy laid her first egg this morning. It just took 4 days lounging in the nest boxes to figure it out.

Wow, such clean bums! Lovely

Fresh new feathers will help with that.

I have loathed Christmas for too long to remember. I had a Christmas tree for years and didn't bother to put it up.

When repairs were being done on the mold in my spare room, there was one work man that continually kept complaining about the amount I had stored in my spare room ( I have to admit I really didn't like this guy) he really got up my nose but I bit my tongue and just about kept my cool ( that was hard I have to say). I got so fed up after days of is b-tching that I just threw my tree and 2 of my stand alone air-conditioning out. I made him take it.

Today I bought myself a tiny little tree just for a little festive atmosphere with two little battery fairy lights hahaha

Princess is a very naughty girl. My dear pusscat doesn't like being outside as much due to the drop in temperature. But his has insisted to be outside with Princess every single time she is outside on the garden as well as out the back. The poor little soul is freezing.

I was being a little piggy this morning and ate a cornbeef pasty. I offered some to my neighbours as they were cold and putting air in the car tires. They refused and enjoyed watching Princess pusscat and my old dog having tiny bits too feel included.

The dog swallowed his down greedily, princess peaked away with her portion and the cats just savoured his taking his time, as he looked up to see if any more was coming his way, the ever grateful princess snatched away the cats tiny bit. I was in tears of laughter and my neighbours just couldn't believe how patient the cat was. He just let her take it.

Look it's all gone

Yes! But too late, the very first time she got up there I did get a light peck on the edge of my cornea (I squinched my eye barely in time). I had turned my head just in time to see her lean over and bam! Got me, behind my glasses even. What precision pecking! Also a very cute image for that millisecond, of her looking at me upside down. Rinsed my eye, it’s felt fine, but I just noticed a grey spot there. My teeth are fine, but somebody did lightly bruise my lower lip when they were still in the brooder!

Oh dear! Don’t fool around with your eyes, get yourself some antibiotic eye ointment - those beaks are in poop and crud!

Hope you are ok
