Meg did the paper clip "climbing" up the rubber band trick for News today. It went down very well and the kids loved it.
My beautiful speckled brown chook, Alice, died today. She was the last of the last of my pets. My beautiful girls Jess and Bindi have now gone, all my axolotls and now Alice. Jack's project during the school holidays when Meg was born was to hatch a dozen eggs. Alice was one of the chicks that we kept along with six other hens. Allan and I were tossing around names and Alice was a possibility when we were deciding on Meg's name. Meg became Meg so my gorgeous speckled brown chook became Alice.
