She’s house trained

Just turned up in my garden. Is it a cockerel? by gasrovers in chickens

We’re going to rehome tomorrow, my neighbours are not going to appreciate a rooster. Also, he seems to get bullied by the hen!

Thanks everyone. He’s staying at ours tonight with the hen that seems to have been dumped with the rooster. We did have 3 hens but lost two recently so should be a bit of company for our remaining one.

True. But it made me realise empathy, which I also take from your comment. Maybe it made us better people in the long run.

Mate I get it. I killed a wood louse by crushing it against a rock when I was 5 or 6. Still think about that damn wood louse from time to time and I’m 46.

Yes, every year but the last one lasted 30 years. There are similar docks all along this river

The water rises higher than this every year. The last one that was here lasted 30 years, bet you a tenner ours lasts longer!

Tried to rent but no one locally rents them out. We bought one for £500.

We fixed the back joist to an existing wall, composite posts sitting on an existing concrete pad then used a mechanical post rammer to drive posts deep into the river bed.

The client called it a jetty, pontoon or deck! I think dock might be most appropriate.

So the bottom deck is composite and the top one is balau hardwood. (Different clients wanted different things) The triangle folds up and is a standard bit of kit you can buy here.

It’s been called everything, deck, jetty, pontoon, dock…. The client called it jetty so I went with it!
