You can take the rabbit out of the battery farm but you can't take the battery out of a rabbit.

Finished the big bag of sunflower seeds (husks on) so went upmarket and bought a big bag of sunflower hearts.
Well, what a difference. The seeds had been almost untouched since the winter weather started. But sunflower hearts are a different matter!
Up to 6 goldfinch (haven't seen any around here since October), usual Blue Tits, Coal Tits, Great Tits. Best of all, two Lesser Redpolls. Lived here for 14 years, never seen them in the garden before.

Hay is for eating straw is for bedding. Although they clearly like grass not sure they would go for hay before vegetables like carrots. Either way she probably thought you may be offering her food for the rabbit? She could of course be thinking of keeping it in her house (yuch). I have a lot of rabbits albeit in the freezer. Pet ones I would have thought are not the most interesting of animals.

Yes, Miss Goodbody is always partial to a bit of wood, when she can get it.

That sounds like £10 of wood, not free wood.

Eating egg on toast. From the outside, working in...lastly eating the yolk and little bit of toast under it...in one mouthful, gorgeous.

I'm thinking of a guy I used to work with...
Every day, he'd have canned tomatoes with his breakfast. Every day, he'd show a tomato his knife and say...
'Harr harr, I'll slit your gizzards me hearty '...pirate style...and insert the knife so red juice spilled out onto his plate. He'd always give a self satisfied smile as he did so.
Ah well......

True, the wood cost me nothing but I thought it only right to give mate a £10. It was about 20 odd miles away and I would have to have done it 20-30 times maybe more on a bike with trailer. Not really practical. Anyway it was really his wood he was just sharing, doing a trip for each of us.
PS trailer on back of van as well and Greenheart wood to boot. Tomorrow a load of decking in excellent condition. May use it for something else ie raised beds. Or flog it on eBay? The Greenheart is by the fire and smells beautiful! I think £10 going his way again tomorrow.

No but my Dad did, and he took me up to where they did cut the turf on Oughtmore I think (I must ask him where it was). But they gave up the rights when I was a child. The annual delivery would fill one of the barns on the farm.
