Not complaining!

Today seperated the birds I am about to get rid of. About 30 racers. They will be picked up tomorrow. Had to focus. 2 of the better ones in the stock loft. Plus 2 that I gave away and came back few weeks ago. 2 young birds. Unflown. I need their inteligence. Plus genetic diversity. Of course, parents of racers are in the stock loft. They are racers themselves. Why they are there. So just young birds for next year.
8 white hens. Others mostly red. Heck, why not? My age time to explore different avenues. Rewards? Personal satisfaction.
Of course, less to feed and take care of! Could not start putting plastic outsde on house windows today. Too much wind. Early yet but electricy seems to go up monthly.

30 birds went this morning. He kept 15 of the young he picked up last time. He is going to try and break them and race them next year. They were all untrained.
I wish him luck. He will bring corn and wheat in a few weeks. Once the corn is off. Fair deal.

One small plant.

ah ,never gave that bit to the pigeons did ya

3 - 4 ounce depending on density there hal ...?

David. Do not know. Have 3 larger ones to cut the buds off. Actually my wife does it. Wears plastic gloves. Thought maybe it affected her today though. Flies are a problem before winter. She complained about them. So swatted one. She asked me if it was dead? Held it between thumb and forefinger and put it against my ear. Told her I could not hear a heartbeat. Ahem..got a talking to for being so bloody whatever! Yup! She is feeling better!

excellent hal, glad to hear she is feeling better ...........

have you tried blending the plant into butter, then using it to make cakes, biscuits etc .

No. My son and daughter in law do all that stuff. I never use the stuff. Last one I had was in Jamaica, 1956.
New mix. 2 kg a dollar. Peas, yellow, green, white. Lentils, rice, barley, pea beans etc,. So far birds just look at it!

She picked the last buds today. Bigger plant.

Interesting Hal Top flyer here, one of the best I've ever seen in my time etc will only purchase human grade standard grains, from those that supply the supermarkets as such.

Beginning to think I am on the wrong medications Hal.

Just had another session at the hospital regarding breathing and lack of energy problems.

Put on two more tablets.

If all the idiots bringing our Capital to a stand still (said to be many on drugs etc;)
and can jump around like a set of chimps, maybe a re-think is necessary.

Programme the other day said the drug trade indicated an amount involved as representing the amount of people on drugs to be ???????.

May make a little plot and grow some unusual looking veg.

As you probably know, pot is legal here. 4 plants per person if not needed for medical use.Cannabis stores, Goverment run, sell it for $10 a portion. Ounce? They take off taxes etc,. Illegal trade it goes for $5 for the same amount. Not nicely packaged as the legal stuff but the packaging does not get smoked. The idea was to get pot off the streets. Not working so far.
