No, haven't bought eggs in years and besides, they're less flavoured from the shops, even the so called, Free-range eggs, they're still mass produced! Ye Richie, chickens are very addictive and adorable to have around, I don't cull any of my birds unless they become very ill which is very...

Cool Richie, and yes Boo, they lay nice eggs, even now during the winter months though just not as many, understandably 🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚

I like the cut of your gib Baggy, count me in, I'll record another classic cricket Vic poem from my archives of Christmas's past ☃

Yes Boo, how'd you know that?

I'm from Northern-Ireland, Hi Betty Boo and all cricket lovers, though the great game is not high on first sport choices for most here ( soccer, rugby, motorbike racing etc more popular ) we do have our diehard clubs, players and fans, to be sure 😍

Got the idea for this comedic, poetic paradox from Lewis Carroll's ' You are old, Father William ' I tweaked the subject to a young cricketer's admiration of a wise and canny old club captain, and then his rely to the young prodigy's enquiringly curious mind, here's what I came up with... You...

Bout time, Ireland despite being an associate nation and indeed, cricket well down the list of priority sports in the country, they still punch well above their weight and have even taken down full member teams in recent years! So bring it on, currently they're involved in a very entertaining...

Cricket & poetry are my two passions, so I combine both... Find it here on the 99.94 club big cricket, always something there for philosophers & discerning connoisseurs of the great game. :thumbsu:

Poetry's my thing & cricket of course, so I combine the two, here's an example... A Tedious Routine ! Monday to Friday twice daily I commute on a weekly ticket, as the wheels of the train go round clickity, clickity, click it, A tedious routine and though I'm thoroughly sick of it, unless my...
