Swans are well lairy aren't they, blimey you just want to have a peek at their newborns and before you know it you're running for your life being chased by a flapping hissing lunatic, just looking is all and with food to share! Anyway those swanlings are very cute thanks for risking life and limb for our entertainment!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701994117292978986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052723513986842570.post-65180248787468560162012-07-08T20:41:35.450+01:002012-07-08T20:41:35.450+01:00I love your swans, your YELLOW yarn and that yummy...I love your swans, your YELLOW yarn and that yummy looking shish-kebab!

Nope don't need to lie down after ...Hello Lucy,<br />Nope don't need to lie down after reading your post 'cos going to read it again.<br />You're very wise to be careful where swans are concerned and most particularly when they have young. My sister's dog got beat up when she got too noisy (she was such a noisy barky dog) and went after swan's along the river front down in Devon...actually she was lucky as the swan just gave her a warning nip but her wings were in full and spread .....she could have knocked Molly for six easily. Anyhow after the nip Molly ran like a bat out of hell. My Dad always told us girls (we were seven sisters LOL) to leave swans,dogs with their tails between their legs facing you and a single cow in a field on its own well alone. Funny how some things taught when you are kids stick in your mind! LOL!<br />Your Rosie sounds lovely...so curious she does that. When I used to stay on my Aunty May's farm in Somerset I had to collect the eggs every morning I used to be scared of the hens they'd go for me and the Bantam Hens were the worse they'd peck my ankles...what a wimp I was fancy being scared of bantam hens. LOL!<br /><br />The kebabs look quite delicious! Have a peek at the cold soup recipe on my last post its fine for weight watchers and if you like that sort of thing (I mean the garlic ) then its so very easy to make and refreshing too.<br /><br /><br />Keep well<br /><br />Amanda :-)Crafty in the Medhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365932964481050936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052723513986842570.post-19507293453329377202012-07-08T11:33:35.604+01:002012-07-08T11:33:35.604+01:00Love a bit of randomness myself!

Your chicken sounds a real character ... mine come running and can't wait to tell their latest tall story if anyone ventures outside, but they've yet to grab a piggyback! Am also at WW and sympathise as meals an get a bit samey, but am definitely going to try some skewers, they look gorgeous! I've been using Light Philadelphia a lot lately, garlic mushrooms on toast a favourite at the moment!<br /><br />Have a lovely Sunday,<br /><br />Claire xxxthriftwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04621095769476921131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052723513986842570.post-36260540355358206412012-07-07T23:12:38.603+01:002012-07-07T23:12:38.603+01:00Hi Lucy!!

I loved your rambling post, they are so necessary some times!! just to get all that is floting in your head out!<br />I had ducks when I was little and I know their bites (as I imagine swan bites too) can be very painful!! good thing that you got the pictures without them getting to you!!<br />Your yarn looks delicious and your skewers even more!<br />ShantiShantihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08806462115795414673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052723513986842570.post-11086948246395906282012-07-07T22:24:30.447+01:002012-07-07T22:24:30.447+01:00Lucy -- I can always see me in your posts but with...Lucy -- I can always see me in your posts but with about a 15 year age gap--- me being the elder.We were visiting a local nature reserve in the depths of an ice age type winter when our dog decided to pretend to be Bambi and run onto the ice to chase a swan-- He was sent packing with a swift wing swipe!! Then when we had chickens it was not a friendly hen who wanted to ride on my back and whisper sweet nothings in my ear it was our cockerel who would bare his hook claw and fly at me with complete animosity as soon as I turned my back!! I hated that cockerel so much ! Love the look of the skewers xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
