Many thanks for all the greetings! I don,t feel so daft with my nearly October haymaking. I really dread not having enough hay and every year (since we have had animals) the tension mounts as to how we will either make or buy some! Never in a million years did I ever imagine that hay would become my annual obsession. Fingers crossed that the weather holds, it,s looking very misty early mornings.....
We have lived on Exmoor for 20 years but came new to smallholding 5 years ago. We love it but sometimes regret that we didn,t start earlier. The weather has become VERY important to us, and the seasons have REAL meaning. We do sometimes hanker after moving to the Highlands of Scotland, so I,m extremely interested in how things are going for members that have "taken the plunge".
I am a member of DASH, but I find that with the animals, children and other family commitments that I don,t get to meet people. Thanks again for all the good wishes.
