It was lovely here yesterday. I went for a walk along the footpath and met a Rhode Island Red (we once kept a few of these so I think I recognise that breed) chicken along the way. I think she would have wandered in from the property opposite the other end of the path.

I spent most of the rest of the afternoon/early evening just pottering in the garden. One thing I did do was connect up the tap timers (except that Amazon offering looks to be one for the US market and a gotcha is we use 3/4BSP and US 3/4NPT hose fittings, similar but not compatible without an adaptor) so that bit's set for the year.
