Make it stop!

We're not sure we like this rain stuff and the thunder above it, that has been pounding down like there is no tomorrow - oh? Maybe there is no tomorrow?

On the egg-laying front Jane is no wiser about what we are up to - Snowdrop laid a nice 42g negg around 2:00 om today - and in the usual place.  It is much whiter than the mystery arrival yesterday - but if it was Snowdrop (says Jane) then why did she later decide to sit on a nesting box and make all the right noises but produce nothing?  I still think Snowdrop just had a day off and Bluebell had her first go at the negg business - time will tell.

This is a view from our run just now:

So we might just have an early night!

Grandad is coming to see us tomorrow so we'd best be on our best behaviour.  We had been looking forward to a run around in the garden today or tomorrow but apparently p175 of "the book" says that we should not be let off to wander until we have established a laying pattern - so it could be weeks...come on girls, let's be having you!
