The blog party is confirmed for Saturday, 16th August. You're welcome to come and to stay over - but if you're staying more than a couple of nights, it would be better to make it the week leading up to the party please, as I'm keeping my options open for the second half of August!

Norfolk 'n' cluckin' good
I say, it's tremendously exciting. The world-renowned Ch1cken R0undabout has its own website. Do take a look, darlings.
It's not all about chickens. There's the famous Leaning P0stb0x of D1tch1ngham and the Karate Nunn, too!
I've read about eccentric English villages and the characters who live there,but had no idea that a friend lived in one. A karate nun? Chickens in the middle of the road/roundabout? A leaning mailbox?Ay yi yi!!!At least you aren't one of the eccentrics, Z. Just probably one of the most loved residents.
The chickens, certainly, are absolutely true. When Bernard Matthews' chickens developed bird 'flu 9 miles down the road as a result of their poor hygiene, not helped by their initial hedging at the fact that they brought in chicks from their Eastern European factory, where locally there was an outbreak of exactly the same strain of flu, there was local concern that the roundabout chickens would be culled. However, they are wild birds and so protected. The photos are accurate, they wander all over the main road.
All posts have been transferred to razorbladeoflife.co.uk and I normally blog there. However, it isn't available at present, so I'm back to blogspot If you want to email me, my address is on my profile. However, I am not interested in sponsored posts, reviews or any commercialising of this blog, which I write entirely for pleasure, so please do not write and ask.
