Great Brit-Hens do us proud



It's been a disappointing few weeks with all our sporting heroes crashing out of the football or tennis, leaving England and the whole of Great Britain deflated.

However, our little hens, all over Great Britain have the most amazing talent and we should be proud of them.

My girls, along with millions of other little hens, score nearly every day when they deliver a fantastic food source for us humans to eat - just by laying one of their precious eggs!

They don't get paid millions of pounds for their talent, they just ask to be treated well and to be given a good standard of living.

I often feel like I am finding something very special when I open the nest box to discover yet another one of their little treasures nestling in the straw.

The sporting tournaments will come again for those to show off their sporting prowess , but for once in a while it's a good thing to acknowledge the simple yet amazing achievement of our great little Brit-hens!!

Anyone for Tennis?

Yipee - It's Wimble'd -Hen!


'I think I'll just check the net before we start the game, don't want any 'fowl' play in this championship.'






'That ball was in! Chalk dust - everyone could see there was chalk dust! Right where is the Umpire?'



'You cannot be serious! Did you have your eyes closed? That ball was in!

'And just how many ball girls do you need?'



'Oh no it's raining again! Typical of the English weather - I'm off.'


'Where's she gone? I can't win this championship on my own. '







'Where do you think? When there are strawberries and cream on offer inside the chicken coop, why on earth would I want to run about a court for hours chasing an odd shaped egg?'







'That girl has has no willpower, and that cream will go straight to her hips. You have to be in it to win it. I think I will spend the time polishing my trophy! It's great for my bingo wings!!

I declare myself the winner, so that makes me the 'Great Brit-Hen' champion of this major tennis tournament for this year - watch out Andy Murray!
