don't fence me in

our very free range to the point of being semi-feral chickens have been naughty. They've been stealing pig-food from the neighbours. The neighbours were very nice about it in a please keep your chickens fenced in kind of way. And that's the kind of thing one doesn't mess with if one appreciates good neighbourlynesstypestuff.

So, the chickens now have a fence round them. But this one is a freedom fighter. We can't work out how she gets out but she does, repeatedly. I found her today marching up and down the lane wearing a PETA t-shirt and singing don't fence me in. It's hard to believe, I know, but it's all true.....

Last night and today I had the very great pleasure of suffering from a migraine for the first time in years. I was very excited about it, obviously (that's all true too). And I've been trying to arrange our up-coming trip to London (this weekend) for a double graduation...it's all go innit.
