My memory is just after Dunkirk when I was fourteen and I though the best way to cure the school hens of broodiness was to put them in orange boxes and put them up a fruit tree in the garden with a good current of air underneath them!

I did it because I was interested in poultry, and curing them of broodiness because I wanted them to produce eggs. I gave them food and water, but why anyone let me do it, I just don鈥檛 know, but they did, and the hens were cured and it was very successful.

I worked on the lambs and farms seriously later, in the Welsh mountains.
