I didn't know the Shambles was closing down, that's such a shame, we didn't go in as we got there late, I think we'll have to go back quick before it's gone. One of my readers recently found one of those chocolate boxes for 80p in a charity shop - can you believe that?!!!<BR/>Have a lovely weekend.<BR/>Lucy xLucy Bloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101067906181532798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-64170764530898663352008-06-21T08:04:00.000+01:002008-06-21T08:04:00.000+01:00Violet and Florence are very pretty.They look very...Violet and Florence are very pretty.They look very content too.;-)Salhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10991496263250729580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-77533476303862299852008-06-21T07:51:00.000+01:002008-06-21T07:51:00.000+01:00i have serious chicken envy here, if I had a large...i have serious chicken envy here, if I had a larger garden I'd seriously consider getting some but not an option right now....they must give you so much pleasure in spite of the work involved.Gillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14622219985656850271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-36072696081308074672008-06-20T23:57:00.000+01:002008-06-20T23:57:00.000+01:00Thanks for your comment on my blog.

It's a good job it's not the 30's and the idea of what make's a good wife has changed. I have been thinking about this and how most of the bloggers that have mentioned it(apart from Kath aka juicyfig)have not scored well. My theory is that the modern woman is strong and independant, has a sense of humour and is in general the main decision maker in the houshold. This is entirely the opposite of the ideal 1930's wife.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the praise re my parchment work as well.<BR/><BR/>Keely xKrafty Keelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11997016352534222334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-62891181772719115572008-06-20T23:10:00.000+01:002008-06-20T23:10:00.000+01:00I hope Violet and Florence settle in and provide y...I hope Violet and Florence settle in and provide you with many beautiful eggs in time.<BR/><BR/>Keely xKrafty Keelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11997016352534222334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-67410420275271968652008-06-20T22:28:00.000+01:002008-06-20T22:28:00.000+01:00Very pretty chickens...and the eggs sound a lovely...Very pretty chickens...and the eggs sound a lovely colour.<BR/>Margaret and NoreenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-64215195947727948022008-06-20T22:09:00.000+01:002008-06-20T22:09:00.000+01:00I buy blue eggs from Waitrose - they come from Leg...I buy blue eggs from Waitrose - they come from Legbars and sometimes Burford Browns - depends what's on special offer.<BR/>Why don't your chickens trash your lovely garden?Gigibirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13171021812450232039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141256657077347979.post-24344481423668423382008-06-20T21:39:00.000+01:002008-06-20T21:39:00.000+01:00I'm considering getting chickens at the moment but...I'm considering getting chickens at the moment but I keep changing my mind.
