Zombie chickens, daleks in the fridge and relocation, relocation, relocation!

Hi All

Now apparently more people read this blog than I thought, and I've been told off at least twice in the past month for not writing much...  Sooooooooooooooo, this is some of what's been keeping Sam and I on our toes the past little while...

First, there was the Zombie Invasion!  Ok, well, the cute soft and feathery type (once they grew their feathers back).  Yup, we added four more chickens (as yet unnamed) to our flock.

And our eldest turned 11, so I made her a cake...  And as we're all Doctor Who fans, it had to be a dalek...  He invaded our fridge for a night, until she cut him head to feet with a big knife!

And then, Sam managed to turn our 3 bedroom house into a 6 bedroom house

The building site (I was banned, due to too many "helpful comments")

Initial framework in place for separating the boy's room into 3

 Below are the post move & construction pics of the rooms we made... In all, we turned two bedrooms into five bedrooms, plus a decent sized storage area

Oh yeah, and while we were at it, we also started a model railway

And rigged up our cargo bike with some fairly useful containers for carrying some of our groceries and stuff


And planted out some tyres beneath the girl's bedroom windows, in readiness for the eventual (extremely thorny) roses

And bought a cute cheap plastic solar-powered butterfly, just cos it was cool!

Sam also bought me a Ballerina apple tree, which is in blossom now and should provide fruit in a couple of months - yum!

Well, I think that's most of the big things we've done in the past few weeks, but I'm sure I missed a tonne of it!

Take care all,
Mama Fern
