We bought Jasmin a walker - not for walking, but in place of an eating chair like Grace's. Grace thinks it was a lovely idea! After all, if anything new comes into the house, it must be for her, no?

New neighbours. There are two families near by that raise cocks for fighting. Usually they are not free, but one lot must have got free and bred, as not there are a few scraggly hens and chicks running around. The girls think it is great!

Usually the cocks are kept under these wire mesh baskets, but we found some that were being kept in fishing baskets! Normally these baskets are quickly placed over a fish and the fisherman reaches in through the hole in the top to grab it with his hand. We had fun watching this persistent cock trying to get out by jumping and sticking its head out the hole. Grace and Jasmin thought it was hilarious and shrieks of baby laughter erupted every time the head appeared!
