Hangover Hell, Gloria gets battered,and wall update

The final single malt was not a good idea at Geoff's last night.
I usually do not experience hangovers, mind you I usually stick to either white wine or gin and tonic when I have a tipple....!
Last night we had a beer, some wine and finished with whiskey (not a drink I like generally) and this morning I had a teenage hangover the size of Australia!

I sorted the animals out in a fugue state, walked the dogs ( well they walked me) and went back to bed with a pint of water, two aspirin and the wish to die peacefully!
At my age I should know better.
So I feel as though it has been a waste of a day.
The turkey poults took advantage of my absence this morning and attacked Gloria with a concentrated barrage of pecks to the back of her neck. This afternoon I confined her to barracks, cleaned her wound and sprayed it with some antiseptic wound spray. Tomorrow I will move her and Boris into the large hen run, well away from angry beaks
The Church wall is coming on great guns, thanks primarily to Islwyn's talent and good eye for placing the faced stones. It doesn't look as though a huge amount of work has been done, but you have to remember that the centre of the wall was pushed out around 3 feet.


Tonight I am off to see The Lovely Bones.

  1. LMAO! Been there, done that. I did that in Florida. I spent a good bit of time in the hot tub with people I didn't know drinking beer and whiskey and coke. I was sincerely sick the next day well into the next night. I so should have grounded myself! It only happens a couple of times a year at most, but that's still too many!

  2. Poor Gloria. It does prove that humans aren't the only animals that can be cruel to each other, though.

    I'll be curious to hear your review of The Lovely Bones. That's one I have been thinking of seeing.

  3. Poor Gloria birds can be such horrid creatures. Hope the hangover has well and truly gone before you set off to watch the film.

  7. Poor Gloria. Dang those bullies.

    In response to the your qq:

    Holy Guacamole John! You never heard of garlic powder?? Wales must be like another planet!! All fresh veggies and NO garlic powder!! Amazing. Now that I've calmed down: Yes, it's dried garlic about the consistency of salt. It's very yummy sprinkled on avocado with some ground pepper. Oh my mouth waters! ---Looking forward to your Lovely Bones review. (Does that sound as odd to you as it does to me??)Ha!
