turkeys that chase

My MiL celebrates her sixty-eighth birthday tomorrow, so today we popped out for a rather lovely family meal. There's a working farm nearby, with tea-rooms, a farm shop and a restaurant. And crocodiles! And parrots! And ostriches! And deer! And free-roaming bunnies, a donkey or two, a wallaby, ducks, cows, Peppa Pig, baby {and violent adult} turkeys ... Inside the restaurant is a life-size statue of a lion, and there are bits of animals dotted about, heads of stags, that sort of thing. During the week it's a steak restaurant {and yes, I think you can treat yourself to some crocodile or ostrich meat, if you fancy it}, but on Sunday it's a carvery. There are vegetarian options, but it probably isn't the place to take a vegetarian, especially on a first date. Toddler Niece loved it, as did Iggle-piggle and Little Girl, her toys. We left with full bellies, muddy feet and windswept hair, and stuffed our faces full of chocolate birthday cake back at ours! Mmmm ... They had CROCODILES!!
