And we have green tomatoes to make into chutney as well! Except we'd better hurry as Ive noticed some of them ripening. And lovely image of the hens fluffed up together--I would love to have hens, but I worry about foxes. Perhaps when we have a bigger fence in the garden next year. Enjoyed this.<br /><br />Ive mentioned you and your blog on mine today, hope thats ok.

She had discovered the bird feeders and a spot where she can scratch around for bugs, I guess. I tried to video tape her and I did, but don't know how to put on my blog yet. She makes a lot of noise scratching around in the leaves. I have enjoyed her company.<br />qMMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028290314714419963.post-43822198532601301192009-11-11T21:24:29.908+00:002009-11-11T21:24:29.908+00:00I like your observation about the diversity of cli...I like your observation about the diversity of climate within the commonwealth -- Wales being caught "between the heat of Australia and the Canadian cold."<br /><br />We've arrived at the time of year when we have to scrape the frost off the windows before we can drive anywhere.

I know one of two others who would happily hide away for a few days with you.<br />Rob - not sure I like the sound of frozen ground already. I should appreciate where I am, between the heat of Australia and the Canadian cold maybe.<br />Pipany - thanks, I will go and look now.<br />WW - the pecking order is nature red in tooth and claw when it gets brutal.

I like the preparation too once I get going but I don't feel ready just yet!<br />Rachel - the grandchild is very exciting. don't feel remotely old enough but don't care!<br />Pipany - need to email you to find out if you are still doing babbits.For other readers, this is not just a strange pet name.<br />SBS - they are odd aren't they? For some reason I find them very funny, not sure why, other animals aren't necessarily funny but chickens are amusing without needing to do much more than run around and scratch a bit!<br />Anna - it is pretty good here. The downside of a really old house in summer is that it is never a vast lightfilled space - thick stone walls, small windows. It comes into its own in winter when the stove is on and the curtains are closed and the lamps are lit. I suppose when it was built everyone would have been outside working in summer.<br />Penny - hi and welcome. I have been over to read your blog. I think I would take our grey winter over temperatures that make you fear for forest fires any day.<br />Mountainear - thank you. I just need to see the baby born and everything all right!

I could have written it myself. Suddenly all the bulbs are planted and the garden has taken on its winter look (although plenty of rosebuds still trying to get out); and like you I keep thinking I ought to start Christmas preparation - puddings and cakes to make, presents to buy and wrap - I love it really but getting started takes some doing.<br />A Christmas baby - how exciting. I look forward to hearing about the happy event - and yes, I know, mothers always look forward with apprehension.
