Rooster, Chanticleer, Cockerel, Ceiliog.
24. May 2009 at 19:37

This is my new 'boy'.....
He`s an early riser and has quite an attitude.
......let the c*ck based 'jesting' begin! Grin

As an aside:
One of life`s pleasures is that I love hear of some new fascinating snippet of knowledge.
Tonight it was about the famous Welsh harpist, Nansi Richards Jones.
There was a plaque on the wall of one of the houses in Penybontfawr, recording that it was her home.
She spent a lot of time in America, and became very friendly with Mr Kellogg - and it was she that suggested to him that he should adorn the boxes of his new product, Corn Flakes, with a cockerel.
There were several reasons behind this suggestion. Firstly of course, the cockerel is very much a creature of the dawn, and by extension, the breakfast. But the 'killer connection' was that the Welsh word for cockerel is 'Ceiliog' which sounds very much like 'Kellogg' when pronounced in that part of America - and Nansi was a dedicated Welsh speaker, as are so many others in Penybontfawr today.
Its clear that if she hadn't been such a wonderful harpist, she might surely have made her fortune as a 'brand-marketing executive'.

There`s nothing quite like waking up to the sight of a big 'thingy' every morning! Grin
