The alarm clocks were set at Ten to Four this morning. Coffee was drunk and the flask and throat lozenges were packed into the car. Our friends were on their way to The National Poultry Club Show! The sky was clear and the stars shone brightly in the cold north wind - but no snow here (yet) - although I think they have it further 'up country'.
Dad is at the helm and Mum is going to look after us, which is always fun as she lets everyone out to play. Besides there was no room for Mum in the car. Prudence, Martha, Campbell and Sebastian, the four Buff Orpingtons are on the seats. The younger members of our family are snugged up in the boot!
Mum bade Dad farewell. 'Hasta tarde' she called as she waved him off.
