Two new mad chickens in residence, a gift from JA, following the disappearance of one of my two, somewhere between the garden and their run in the field on Monday evening.
They were great pals and so friendly that I'm sad to have lost one, to Mr Fox, I guess.
The new ones - Freda and Edna - are point of lay.
Freda won't leave the run, Edna is chasing around the site on a high, Chick was hiding behind the fatballs bin, keeping well out of it.
No doubt they'll get it all together shortly - I 've been out with titbits to talk to them a number of times, despite the high winds.
The Rogation Walk around the Parish on Monday was brilliant - fantastic weather, great company and delicious food on offer - coffee and toast at the Meths, bacon rolls at LM, plough mans at Sh, strawberries and wine at OW and afternoon teas at NW.
Local ales on offer at the six pubs!
I was at church from 9.00am to set up, served up loads of cheese and half a dozen crusty loaves to some lovely people (and dogs), clear up and get to NW by 4.00 to take a short, happy service to complete the day.
We started with "One More Step Along the Road I Go", ended with "The Day Thou Gavest Lord is Ended", I then walked to The Dog, The Swan and The Meths, for a lift home - the Volvo wouldn't start on Sunday or Monday, now at the garage.
Apparently, there is nothing wrong, but is being wired up today.
Yesterday spent recovering but included a visit to Lichfield to collect a lot bought at Wintertons last week - a Mintons green majolica comport and a Royal Crown Derby Imari comport, some professional repair to the base, but not visible from above.
I'm delighted with them.
Anyone interested?
