The word here is homeless goats in foster care due to their caretaker passing on. Not sure we're up for that. Glad you could help out with the fowl. <BR/>Happy Greenhouse Dreams!

We have just made him a little pond to play in and he loves it.clodhopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08055899083327712482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379016.post-5776332785193903182008-01-04T21:04:00.000+00:002008-01-04T21:04:00.000+00:00Mr Micawber looks like he has real character!

Actually I'm getting very fond of the geese too; they're as soft as butter and not agressive at all. They will be going though, but only next door to join a neighbours flock.<BR/><BR/>Weeds? What weeds? *sigh*clodhopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08055899083327712482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379016.post-55195897799504120312008-01-03T12:20:00.000+00:002008-01-03T12:20:00.000+00:00Geese are vicious bad tempered creatures.

Along with Mr Micawber we have inherited an ENORMOUS greenhouse, three cockerels and three geese. Mic gets on ok with the chickens but gets bullied by the geese. Those geese have gotta go!clodhopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08055899083327712482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379016.post-76834141253347815512007-12-27T05:25:00.000+00:002007-12-27T05:25:00.000+00:00Aww, but the favorite seed catalog arrived today. ...Aww, but the favorite seed catalog arrived today. On to garden dreams. Tomorrow, more cleaning off the desk... the floor ... the shelves and recycling paper. Haven't looked at it in a year, probably won't need to! Good chance too with so many away.<BR/><BR/>Sure Mr. Mic appreciates your attentions. Does he get along with the chickens?Petunia's Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02294826235747207917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379016.post-78559549983879539822007-12-26T14:57:00.000+00:002007-12-26T14:57:00.000+00:00He needs a bit of fattening up for next year methi...He needs a bit of fattening up for next year methinks. I had stuffed toasted cat on Xmas Day. Stuffed with Sheba's poshest range and then toasted gently in front of a radiator to aid digestion. We're having more of the same today, but the cat is demanding a different flavour stuffing!<BR/><BR/>Season's Greetings.llewtrahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06056744147599140057noreply@blogger.com
