Title: Hello from Dorset!
Post by: Workhorse on January 06, 2013, 12:05:59 am

Hi every one!  :wave:
 I live in Dorset and have horses and ponies, we rent nearly ten acres and are currently just sorting out a lease for some more paddocks, that unfortunately need fencing and ditching and some tender care!
 My partner used to work on a dairy farm (that sold up) and now we mainly work for an estate, some gardening, hedge laying and general maintenance, and a bit of cleaning (me).
  Looking forward to learning loads of things from this forum!  I was pointed in this direction from someone on HHo!

Hello and welcome from Carnoustie :wave:

Hopefully you'll be persuaded to use the paddocks for some food-producing animals  :thumbsup:
