Ribh's D'Coopage

You @Ribh I looked up Native Australian flowers and birds for when Anna and I did your picture. Maybe you can spot them?

It's a shame your man isn't all that with the chickens.

It's less that, Shad, than he broke his back 20 years ago & isn't that mobile. I can get up & down our hill & even up a tree if I have to; he cannot. So because the run isn't secure & my girls like to escape they must stay coop bound where he can & will feed & water them for me & gather the eggs. Once we've built the secure run he will be able to give them more freedom but until then, for everyone's safety, they stay in the coop unless I'm round to supervise.

I've been out and about on the land to come back annd find him in my house making a cup of tea and chatting to the chickens.

That's the best sort of neighbour! I used to have one like that on the farm but she's changed islands. Sadly.

I'll have a proper look when I go away CCCL. It's a bit crazy here @ present. My whole house seems to have been moved into my living room for the present.

Hi Sue. Hope you have a good one too.

It was pretty good, but glad it's over and time to relax

What I want to know is: When you go to call your cat do you yell, Piewacket!! Piewacket! or do you call something like Pie! or Wackie?

I have to answer this one. She gets called Pie in those cozy cuddle moments but then she decides to go all cat-crazy and I call her Wacket or worse, Whacky Wacket! My others are Nightshade which is just Nightshade and is my big black panther-cat; Syllabub who is often Silly Syllabub (because silly defines him) and Falafel who just becomes Fluff'll.

Good evening folks

Jeannie definitely remember the images of the pied piper... When we used to free range the birds, they'd line up and follow whoever was carrying the feed and go right into their assigned housing.

My girls do that too!

My cats have dull names because I refuse to stand in the middle of our road screaming *Whisky! Whisky!* or worse. Mind you both cats generally come to a whistle, like a dog, because Kirby in particular has a very big territory & a whistle carries further.
