offline as poorly chick! Me not the hens

Hello

Sorry not written for a while, been off line intending to write once a week or so, then managed to damage my spine/nerves on Saturday. Longs story short; uncomfortable ambulance ride, weekend in hospital while Angels (Doctors and Nurses) made me fly (they have really good drugs), and week at home with my parents nursing me. So stuck here another week, with regime of rest, short walks and exercises to get me walking and sitting again.

Dad has taken to caring for chickens, like a duck to water - sorry? But is horrified by the damage the inflicto on his efforts to manicure my lawn and borders. He even picks them up, calls they by name and talks to them. He is tidier than me with them and is busy pretending he is not attached.

Finally, I feel like I'm making an Oscar acceptance speach, my very good friend Allison, took it upon herself last Sunday (while I was stuck in hospital) to not only pop around to feed the cat, but completely cleaned out the chuck caravan, replace bedding, top up food, empty poo tray and move caravan to new spot to save the grass, shows how determined, helpful and clever Allison is, and how brilliantly designed the Eglu Cube is.

Thanks for help and more Chuck news when I'm better - PS if none of this makes sense it is because I am still legally stoned out of my tiny little mind! Toodle pip x
