Mum spent quite a while stretching her legs this afternoon, preening, titivating the nest and moving the eggs around. I can't be totally sure, but we may have to add Lurpack to Stork , Butter and Margarine, as there may be four eggs!

I really do not think that Lurpak is appropriate - so my vote would go to................... FLORA!!! Also, keeps up the PP link!!

Eggselent idea Tangoman! Flora it is! And maybe Stork can be disregarded in favour of Clover?
Clover, Flora, Butter, and Marge! Glad I can count up to 4!

Is she trying to "butter me up", or just "Larding it over me"???

Belladonna,just back from Tesco's Dairy Department, Butter and Spreads aisle!!!

So, finally, are the eggs "Low Low" in the nest - also suggest one could be called "Olive".

I think that'll win it for me then!!

( Wonder what topic she'll move onto next?? )

I know when I'm beaten, I just need to be whisked away before my brain gets scrambled any more!

So, to get back to the action (or lack of it ), i am beginning to think that the storks are hatching elephants. How much flipping longer is it going to be .

Sws she does this quite a lot but as you say there 's still no sign of the eggs hatching. Now I know I'm a pessimist but my glasses is now completely flipping empty! I'm really beginning to doubt they are ever going to hatch as it's now at least 43 days since the first egg was laid, and apparently the incubation period is only 33/34 days.

I do so hope I'm proved wrong
