Today was such a joyous day; after more than three months we allowed our flock of hens out of their houses. They have been confined on the instruction of the Department of Agriculture along with all poultry in these islands because of the threat of Avian flu in Europe. 

Happy Easter to you all, just one more day until you can break your fast and feel deeply virtuous, maybe you’ve given up ‘the drink’ or sweet things or sugar.
