Daft Cow.....

Ok....... so, I had 4 little pressies for crimbo, one each that me lads bought.... so there were 4 little pressies wrapped under the tree with me name on :)...ya see, we only have us, no other family, so me lads and I only have gifts from each other.. I am a person of such simple means, I must be the most easiest person in the world to find or make a gift for........ and....



I JUST LOVE....



ME NEW....



CRIMBO SLIPPERS....

Well, I should rephrase that..... I DID love me new crimbo slippers, until last Sunday......

Ya see, I looked out the kitchen window on Sunday and I could see Janet pecking around the garden but NO Mabel...... so I opened the back door and made that stupid clucking noise that chicken owners often use to call in their bird lol...... so my Janet comes running up to me to see what I had for her, but NO Mabel..... but I could hear black Patrick's cockeral 3 gardens over making a hell of a racket.... and then I could hear this other clucking noise coming from 2 gardens over..... so theres me stood at the back door thinking, dam, bloody Mabel has fluttered over the fences in need of a bonk from black Patricks cockeral the dirty little bird that she is, and has landed a garden short, and there is a terrier dog that lives in that garden and I know if they let the dog out then Mabel is gonna definetely be Sunday lunch for the dog, cos it has already had 2 of black Patrick's cockerals that have fluttered over the fence.....

Dont get me wrong, its not the dogs fault, its only doing what comes natural to a little cute terrier, ya know, ripping a friendly chicken to death.....

So without thinking I try to hobble fast down me rain soaked muddy wet slippery garden in me COW SLIPPERS.... thinking I will go out me back gate along to Neils garden where Mabel the horny bird was flapping around, before they let the dog out......

I didnt think to put on some proper shoes, so as I got about 10 foot onto me wet muddy slippery rain soaked garden, me slippers which are right stupid slip on slippers with no back, got stuck in the mud and as I sorta stumbled to keep them on me feet I slipped arse over tit and ended up on me side laying in the mud......

Ok, for some this would be no problem, but for me LOL with me gimpy knee which was tucked up underneath me arse and with me head spinning in pain, well, I couldnt just jump up LMFAO..... ok its well funny now..... so I lay there in the mud, thinking, ouch dam ouch tears ouch dam.... there was no one in to help me lol..... 15 minutes I lay in the mud thinking thats it, sod it, let me die here in the mud lol...... then I remembered that my Sam was in the house so I started to call LOL.... Sam SAm SAMMMMMMM..... he came to the back door and rushed out to help me upright, and then he just burst out laffing so hard that I had to box his ears for him...... he realised I was ok, but I was covered from head to toe in thick wet mud, it was even in me hair where I had just laid down and waited to die LOL...

I hobbled back in doors and put proper shoes on and then between us we went to rescue Mabel, which in inself was no easy task.... Jacob came in and he helped, we got a sheet to try and throw over the chicken to catch it....... we must of looked a right proper funny sight hobbling around Neils garden chasing dam mabel...

How I resisted wringing her bloody neck, I dont know lol......



This is Mabel just after I caught her, and yes, those are my hands around her neck LOL..... to wring or not to wring that is the question :) - but look at that cute little face, aint she adoreable :)

I told me maties in the week about Sunday and the slip and the mud and Mabel and they laffed at me..... Ive just this second told me matie Wendy (she has just come to pick up sleddie who I childmind) and she laffed so hard she upset her cuppa tea all over her trousers LOL.......

So the crimbo cow slippers that I loved, I now HATE lol they are well dangerous with a gimpy knee..... I know, maybe I shouldnt of hobbled down the garden in the wet without proper shoes on and maybe I might of slipped anyways...... but, I BLAME THE SLIPPERS...... I aint a 'daft cow' no matter how many times me maties call me it ....

An easy simple life.... that is all I ask...... Enuff Twaddle for a rain soaked Friday evening.....

Hi, great to meet you! I just stumbled upon your blog today and spent several pleasant minutes laughing hard enough to scare the cat! I'm new to the blogosphere, just started my own blog a couple of weeks ago, at www.speakoutforchange.blogspot.com. I like the way your blog is laid out and can see I have a lot to learn about this whole thing. And I loved the story about the turkey neck, I'll probably not be able to look at one again without smirking.
Have a great day,
AuntieM

Kati said...

Sweet Jiminy!!!! Toasty, you're one dangerous woman to have around, ya know!!!! I hope you're ok and that your gimpy knee isn't paining you even more after that tumble. You've darn near got the patience of a saint, if you were able to restrain from wringing Mabel's neck. *grin*

Pam said...

hmmm a cow on slippers and the fact that you went into the mud w em...are you SURE you're not a daft cow? lol i think those slippers were trying to tell you something lmao

Akelamalu said...

I love the slippers - I don't suppose they'll wash????

I am not laughing at the thought of you lying in the mud, I'm not, honest I'm not.

LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL

Casdok said...

Jen said...

I fell Sunday, too. Only it was right on my rear in a big, soft pile of snow. I left quite a mark!

His Girl Friday said...

Hi Marmite,

buffalodick said...

Marmie- The Chicken Herding Mud Wrestler! I'll handle the publicity, you get the knee worked on and start pumping iron...This is going to be huge...
Cow slippers you have to squeeze your knees together to see the whole animal? No man I know designed these...

Anonymous said...

But they're such "udderly" cute cow slippers... ;o)

none said...

That is a nice looking chicken. Glad it's not in the pot :)

The cow slippers are pretty awesome too.

Carol Woolum Roberts said...

Oh, just a typical day at MT's house. Sorry about the spill in the mud...doesn't sound pleasant. Those are cute slippers...I'm glad your nice sons came to the rescue...even though they were laughing.

Pamela said...

bwaaak bwak bwak (laughing with mabel)

Catch said...

Marmy...I can just see you laying there....and the first thing I always do if I fall is to look around and see if anyone saw me....then I laugh my butt off...no matter if I hurt myself or not....I have to laugh! what is it about falling that is so damn funny?

Toriz said...

Yep, gotta be the slippers, can't possibly be something that would have happened anyway... Someone's gotta take the blame, even if that someone happens to be a pair of slippers. LOL!

Real Live Lesbian said...

The poor cow slippers....we all know it's the chicken's fault! Great story! Thanks for the laugh!

the rotten correspondent said...

Tears are rolling down my face, woman. Those are some dangerous slippers, but I don't think I'm telling you anything you don't already know!

Horny chickens, turkey necks...you're like poultry porn.

katy said...

oh my those poor poor slippers! hope you washed em!
dont you think we are a strange bunch of folk laughing at your misfortune hahahahaha just kidding, but i gotta say, this could only have happened to you now couldn't it!!!!

Anonymous said...

I feel for your poor knee and for the wrecked new slippers but I agree how could you wring the neck of one so dog-goned cute. (LOL)
Great story. It gave me a good chuckle which on an icky old gray day I really did need. You always are a wonderful boost for me. I love how you handle lifes struggles. A little laughing, a little crying, a little swearing and then sharing it with all of us.
Maybe (ball & chain) that Mable what with a sturdy string and a tennis ball so she can't fly the coop. Silly chicken.

But how could you not say a thing when the son was eating away at the bird food? OMG I would have burst if I couldn't say anything. Too funny. Too wicked. I love it.

Have a good week and for gosh sake take care of yourself...especially that knee.

xxxJolie hugs
