The Hens keep Laying
Did anyone else hear Farming Today this morning. I heard a farmer explaining that his hens keep laying , he has meat that needs eating and he would be at Kendal Market this morning, which surprised me no end. I woke Mr P to tell him and went back to sleep.
Roll forward 5 hours. I had not planned to go into Kendal at all but Mr P needed to visit the main post office in Kendal. Our local post office has closed because the postmaster got fed up with ignorant people not obeying the rules, so I offered to lurk in the car outside the main post office in Kendal while he went in.
Mr P remembered the 5:30 am conversation about the farmer and wanted to go to the stall because he always buys pies there. I ventured along cautiously with my camera to observe what was going on and heard the farmer offering Mr P 6 free eggs with his meat purchases. "Your hens keep laying" I shouted, I heard you on Farming Today. The farmer laughed, "You heard me!", have a dozen free eggs. He told us he would not be here next week and urged us to take his home delivery details. All very fortuitous. Mr P can get his pies regularly.
Went home and made a very egg rich cake. Thanks Farming Today
