The Vardo is looking good. The dinner looks great. :)

Keep up the good work.

Very nice work.
I have to agree with Stockcube about the comments. From a far flung place on the other side of the Pacific, where there are very few Teardrop etc, it is nice to receive comments.
Just over two years ago, we had no idea what a Teardrop really was, let alone a vardo, benroy, or any other ttt concept. For me it was a case of looking at a few photos and forming a plan in my head.
To receive reaction from other parts of the world gives you a boost.
I have just read about both of your vardo projects and want to pass on my recognition of the great work you are doing.
Sheddie. :thumbsup:

Mama hens are always angry. They are angry for a few days before they sit for 21 days on eggs to hatch them. Then they sit 2 more days to complete the hatch. Then they have to protect the chicks. They even will attack me if I get too close to the babies. It is instinctual for them

Thanks ! I'll be back on this project next week for a few days
