things that make you smile

Perhaps it wasn't really vegan and was secretly roast parrot.

Wonderful flavour the Norwegian Blue.

It looks like I would imagine a fried turd would look like and would probably taste likewise.

I'm convinced my neighbor has lost the plot .
He moved in two years ago into a new build bungalow ,back of my house .
Him and his Mrs used to live outside the village with open views all round ,no direct neighbours and no disturbance .

Well as I've said many times , there's loads of peacocks roaming the village .
Today he sets to nailing a line of those plastic spike strips on top of the fence ,the idea being to deter the birds from sitting on it .
Admittedly the birds are destructive ,they will eat anything ,pretty flowers,veg ,shrubs ,everything .
They sit on garden sheds and puncture the felt , everywhere .
Now this is the bit I found hilarious .
He has told me ,not asked to keep the birds on my side
Erm hello,they can fly extremely well ,they can go vertical from a standing start .
How the hell does he think they will stay my side of the fence .

The ironic joke about this is he used to be a parish council member who voted 10 years ago to get a protection order put on the peacocks to prevent them from any harm or removal .
I dont know whether to pity him of wonder he's completely barking .

They say life is simpler ,iff you stay away from idiots .
I despair

Tell him you are not allowed to interfere with the birds, due to those interfering busybodies on the parish council.
Sorted!

Came across this today so I left some reading

An old Prescold! I am currently using a 1951 model. I think that one is slightly earlier. It made me smile seeing it though.

I am wearing a sweater right now, one with the useless pockets on the front which I pretty much use never. This time I did, put something in, put my jacket on and went outside to realise I already lost the thing. "Well I'll find it later I suppose." Came back in the house for tea and asked my father if he found it. He didn't, I searched my pockets to find the thing still in the front pocket, I just didn't look there.
It's the simple things.

You didn't find my last penknife in there did you?

'I only put it down for a second.'

Folks had one like that for as long as I can remember, I was the last to get wed and leave home, a couple of years later mum decided a kitchen revamp was in order and a smaller one would suffice for the two of them, fridge ended up in the farm office until around 2000 when the door fell off, getting on for 50 years of use.

If I found I would've probably lost it again already. I do have a knack for it aswell.

Mine tested a few boyfriends carrying up to top flats! It has been to Kenya and back. It still has the original ice cube tray (you pull a handle to get the ice out) and the original glass bit over the "crispator" where you are supposed to keep salad stuff. My father kept his drugs in there (a doctor!) and now it has all the farm drugs, feeding tubes etc.
It takes several hours to defrost...
Made by a company that did car parts, hence the handle that has a lock. Goodness knows what it does to the global warming...

Took one look at it after it popped out & said to herself "mines black how did that happen everyone else's is different"
Mind you I'll bet there's a few English girls have said the very same thing.

We had twin Romney lambs that came pitch black the other lambs wouldn't play with them and they other ewes would purposefully go to attack them (would go 100ft across the field where they we alone just to hit them) that was until their mother would see she would be over in a shot and knock the other ewe flying several times before chasing her for a bit then would go back to check her lambs she would bounce around and play with them when no one else would like she was a newborn herself.

Not even the dog would mess with her leaving us to walk across to get them. She was one hell of a mother. In the words from an American Karen video "If they dared touch her babies she would beat the white out of their A's.

Hampshire County Council have been making decisions on county farms recently- this one awarded to a girl I know from YFC days who used to be a herds woman nearby.

I hear pretty good things about Hants County Council.
They still have quite a lot of farms of all types; smallholding starter units, progression farms, dairies, mixed livestock, fruit & veg, arable.
