I still am!  Also about 3000 eggs ago, or maybe a touch more ...............  - 12 years, 7 hens, 1 egg a day each for three quarters of the year = ????  Oh my head hurts, can't work it out but a blooming lot of eggs, and each one a miracle!

 That's 22,995 eggs Annie  :o.  (Guess who's having a boring day at work!  ;D)

Congratulations Ellied!  And you're right to be ridiculously pleased. What are you going to do with it?

It's a great feeling, I still remember it.  And again with the ducks.  Well done - and tell us when you've eaten the best egg you have ever tasted in your life!  ;D
