Ribh's D'Coopage

Lovely to see she's recovering. You've done well there Ribh.

I burnt last night's pasta [still figuring out how hot gas is ] so put it out for the girls & was delighted to see Sif, being the only chicken on the patio @ the time, was quick to nab a piece for herself & run off with it before everyone else arrived. She defended her right to it mightily too! And she is starting to peck those she considers subordinate, like Oshina. I carry her out of the shed every morning & put her in @ night but I insist she makes her own way to the patio once she's outside. She is getting faster & steadier each morning. She spends most of her day resting @ the back door where she can see & hear me, though she is exercising more & more each day. The only thing that is truly worrying me just now is her propensity to hurtle toward me when I step outside & nestle between my feet.

I knew Wick. Eastwick (The Witches of Eastwick for example)

The more I learn the less I know...

Well, you're British. There was always an outside chance you would @ least know some of them. The rest of us poor colonists were quite lost.

I'm trying to slow it down a bit. It took off at a volume I wasn't expecting

There has always been a rather large minority who appreciate you.

The whole marketing business I find difficult and a bit distastfull.

Ditto.

How wonderful. She really has flourished. Well done for sticking with her!

Welcome to the club!

Ditto.

I find self-commodification abhorrent. And disrupting of dignity and various human rights.

Sorry to hear about YD, my brother caught Covid as well. We’re also being deluged, the girls are not impressed!

My gosh! That's a lot of standing water. Yikes! Is it flat where you live or are you at the bar of a hill?

I missed a large chunk but I'm sort of caught up now. The tagging helps but there are some posts by others that I would like to keep up with as well.

I saw you around the thread today. I'm glad you were able to catch up. I have tried to tag you only to certain posts and not the silly ones. So at least you would know what was happening with the ladies.

I'm probably a week behind on yours. At least.
