Zoo etc

Yesterday we went to Belfast Zoo with an old school friend of mine & her 4 kids who are home from Australia for 6 weeks. It was a gorgeous day & a good exercise workout.

In typical Irish style the poly tunnel didn't arrive on Friday as planned & neither did the men who are to do the fencing. We've only been waiting over 1 year on the latter & I've phoned him almost every week & every week he's promised faithfully to come within a few days. Booked in another guy to do the fencing about 4 weeks ago so whoever arrives first can do it. They'll probably both arrive on the same day.

Rocky is still escaping but seems happy enough to potter around the outside of the pen staying close to the hens. Every night at bedtime he either pecks at the door or window to get in. Not a routine we had planned on but I think Davey is getting quite attached to him.
