Hattie the Hen
Deeply Rooted
We have been having a few programmes on UK TV about this subject & now there are several articles being written about it. I thought I would pass them on to you as I haven't seen it talked about on any post at TEG. Try this for a start as it shows what I'm going on about! I love the quirkiness of it & it would certainly perk up some very dreary areas of many towns & cities!
The systems that you buy to set them up are pretty pricey but I know how clever a lot of you are about devising stuff using bits & pieces that are laying around -- SO MAYBE YOU COULD GET THOSE BRAINS WORKING ON THIS PROJECT.......???
