  • Country living???

    Yeh...brill!

    This evening I made our pancake mix and left it on one side whilst we ate our evening meal.

    When I went back to it there was a huuuge spider in it!!!

    OK- too tired to freak out- I rinsed the spider under the cold tap and popped him/her outside- then used the batter

    Oh the joys of country living!...me thinks I've just gone through an initiation ceremony perhaps??


    funnily enough I thought of this song!....

    There was an old lady who swallowed a spider,
    That wriggled and wiggled and tiggled inside her;
    She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
    I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
    There was an old lady who swallowed a bird;
    How absurd to swallow a bird.
    She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,
    She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;
    I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!

    yikes!!!

      The batter was cooked so no worries, I'd have done the same One lucky spider.
      When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
      If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

            When we were kids my brother and I watched our Mum eating a salad sandwich with a spider on the crusty bit that she couldn't see. Its funny that neither of us felt that we should tell her, although we both did after she'd swallowed it

              Now Nicos I hope you rinsed the batter off the spider back into the bowl....
              Never test the depth of the water with both feet

              The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

              Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

                  It may be the flip side but it's still the way to live. If only I had the resources to return to my country roots

                    I'd need the resources and the country roots! OH is frequently heard saying 'when we can afford to get a small holding...'
