I'd never kept hens till about 9 years ago, easy peasy, feed hens get eggs. I give them a good life, loads of green leaves etc. I'm not sentimental though, once they have stopped laying they go in the pot. They all have individual characters too.

So you can run to the bog faster? ha haΒ Β it's actually an excellent French dish (lapin aux pruneaux)Β and doesn't have that effect I do quite a nice rabbit dish with lemon-recipe from a cookbook bought from M&S in the early 80s.π

No a coop is an enclosure designed to corrale fowl in order that humans may gain food products from them.

Depends, black latex gloves as used by tattoo artist are good, but there are times when gloves take the feel away - as in other intimate situations...! Playing with a DPA pump is one of those situations, loosing the regulator spring and adjusting screw in the bilge is not an option. I try to look after my hands but it's not always possible. It would be fair to say I don't have Fairy soft hands! The man on Wheeler Dealers wears orange gloves Ed endorses these gloves www.greasejunkie.com/extra-length-gloves/Ed also built these whacky creations www.cummfybanana.co.uk/We use these www.killerinktattoo.co.uk/box-of-100-unigloves-powder-free-latex-gloves - they stand up well to styrene and acetone, the tattooists use them to hide the blood! Quite tuff and don't split half as easy as the expensive nitrile gloves. Normal latex gloves are 3 parts useless - the fourth part I'm yet to make my mind up on

there's a guy on a widebeam based on the A & C who has a couple of pet chickens that travel around with him I wonder if any other livestock have been kept aboard canal boats. Donkeys

You have all been so kind and welcoming. I wonder if I could further impose on your good will. I now have my user name thanks to an unknown benefactor and caption set thanks to Winn. I have also included my real name as pointed out by rog. To complete my profile I need an avatar picture. Someone kindly provided me with one when my account was altered. I think it was copyright infringement so I removed it. I notice other members have a picture of a boat or something amusing but rarely a photo of themselves. As you have all been so helpful in the past, I turn it over to you kind people.I was thinking perhaps a wee dog. I welcome your suggestions. This any good?

there's a guy on a widebeam based on the A & CΒ who has a couple of pet chickens that travel around with him I saw a goat on a narrow boat years ago. I'm permanently traumatised by ghosts milk as my mother kept them when I was tiny so even the faintest whiff of them is enough to make me feel queer. I wonder if any other livestock have been kept aboard canal boats. Who was this Greatest Of All Time you speak about?

Iβm not sure an incontinent dog would send the right message. However, each to his own!

What do ghosts smell like? I'm thinking maybe slightly musty?
