You may (or there again, you may not….) recall ChickPea’s Timepiece. Of the wristwatch variety. Well – it did it - Yet Again - both Once Too Often AND Too Many Times ( ie.self-selecting ‘menu’ / ‘reset’ / ‘anything-in-the-world-except-the-time’ that is )……
So………
Back to Mr Asda (sorry, Mr Lay Clerk), to peruse the Field Of Options.
Such a field may be amongst the fairest of places to be on a good day, with the sun on your back and the wind on your face, the buttercups around your feet and the skylark ascending……….
However………
This morning it was raining. Well, it was raining by the time ChickPea got halfway to Mr Asda’s most local premises. Luckily, Mr Asda had previously accommodated ChickPea’s wish for an Umbrella. All Was NOT Lost. Just not dry. Not at all dry. Soggy jeans and damp T-shirt notwithstanding, ChickPea furled her brolly upon arrival, girded her lions, and Sallied Forth In To The Field.
Now – what’ve we got here then………..? ……………Digital……. NOooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!
Lots of Analogue Alternative Attractions……… blue faces, yellow faces, green faces, sparkly bits, pink bits, straps, bracelets, numbers, no numbers, round ones and square ones, big wans and wee wans………. Oooooh ! What a Field To Fancy……….
Sadly, the Boy’s Own £6.00 Man on the Surfboard (was a fine fellow and companion that one) was not to be found this time (off to the beach, doubtless)…. So, with ‘Interview’ in mind, ChickPea thought she should eschew the ‘pink pussycat’ options and get Something Suitable (TH will be relieved)………. but............. How Boring……….
Time shall again, at the point of fullness, doubtless, Tell All…………

Hi Gail
looks like I've got here at last! You are not alone in the cyber-child upward learning curve....but its either that or slump into a befuddled slime of cyber-resistant baby boomers.
Love the site - haven't been so interested in hens since watching with bemused fascination, aged 9, as my Granny's hens tried to force their way through the chicken wire of their run whilst a gaping hole to freedom two feet away attracted no attention at all!
Love Anne xx
And welcome ! Thank you, Anne. Yes - with Miss Mog, Mr Mutt, hens and paddling in blogland, 24 hours seems inadequate !
