Footy fans

20 March 2014

Having been alerted to the football season by a recent Facebook post, the chickens have stormed The Barricade and are demanding to be let into the “Big House” to watch the Friday night footy game featuring the Roosters. Sadly they have twigged to the fact that the Broncos are the opposing team, and have issued a written invitation to the horses, Will-O’-the-Wisp and Le Cadeau, to attend. Chocolate Bunny is happily rearranging the chairs in the sitting room to accommodate the additional two XL and three Xfeathery bottoms. 

Big night in

15 March 2014

In anticipation of an absorbing night of football viewing, Chocolate Bunny set himself up in front of the TV, complete with handy snacks to avoid having to trek to the fridge mid-game. Having naturally decided to cheer for the Rabbitohs, he was somewhat perplexed and more than a little disappointed to find that for the entire match not even one rabbit appeared. He is considering writing to Channel 9 to complain about false advertising and to the management of South Sydney to suggest that the inclusion of at least a few rabbits on the team may improve their performance.

Life is great!

Being a creature of boundless optimism, Chocolate Bunny greets each morning as if it were Christmas…and is happy to share his excitement with any friendly feet that may be in the vicinity. 

Farmers

22 February 2014

Anzac and The Snork Maiden are very pleased with the results of their soil tilling. They are taking full credit for the current success of the veggie garden. The appearance of a bird net surrounding the veggie garden does, however, have them a little nonplussed. They have asked Radish if she will invest in some scissors on one of her forays to Woolies. 

Loving those morning TV ads

31 January 2014

Having been subjected to a surfeit of morning TV, Chocolate Bunny has become increasingly disturbed by the bombardment of advertisements for automatic vacuumers. As far as he can tell, none come with the “Avoid-Sucking-Up-a-Rabbit” attachment. In an effort to ward off the possibility of one of these machines making its way to Joyfallee, Choccy has volunteered to put his shoulder to the wheel (or, in this case, mouth to the carpet) and taken up vacuuming duties. 

Getting their claws dirty

18 January 2014

Having received an apology in quadruplicate for their unjustifiable confinement, Anzac and The Snork Maiden are now prepared to abandon their sit-in and take up some useful tasks around Joyfallee. In response to bribes of copious quantities of rolled oats, they have agreed to till the soil on the new veggie patch. They were also lured away from their sit-in by a desire to check out holiday brochures to Hawaii, which they are keenly perusing, egged on by suggestions they found while browsing facebook. 

Sit-in

12 January 2014

In protest at their confinement yesterday, Anzac and The Snork Maiden have staged a sit in. They refuse to do anything remotely resembling usefulness, such as turning over the new veggie patch or laying eggs. They are resolute that they will not be moved until they receive a full written apology in triplicate. Radish the Resident Chicken feels she is too old for such antics and has, instead, opted to put her claws up with a cocktail by the pool.
