Finally made it back on TAS
« on: April 20, 2015, 10:53:49 am »
Morning all and please accept my apologies for the protracted absence. Did I miss anything important?

Why did no one explain clearly just how little spare time I'd have when I moved to my smallholding? I knew the day job would get in the way but somehow I assumed that there'd still be some time for casual browsing of the forum here!

After an extended break from visiting TAS in the last year or so I've finally managed to organise my time a little better and having a commutable day job (rather than working away all week) definitely helps  ;D

Brace yourselves for plenty of pics of the Tamworths and our first gentle foray into cattle starts next month with two in-calf Dexters ...

Know what you mean - I used to be a regular poster before I moved here - now it's all I can do not to fall asleep in front of the computer in the evenings  ;D  .


welcome back  :wave:
