Title: Are there local groups of like minded folks...
Post by: pikilily on January 25, 2009, 04:11:25 pm
Hi i was wondering if TAS has identified local groups.

IE. I live between meigle and glamis just north of dundee and would like to get to know other folk in the same area who are in the same setup. Perhaps there is an oportunity for tool sharing, seed sharing etc and local info sharing.

Hi Emma,

The member map (up top in the bar next to profile) will show you where people are, but it's still quite new so maybe not everyone has added to it yet. Then you could just send them a message to arrange a meet up ?
But the forums are GREAT for all the advice you need - just read through the sections or post your query then sit back and wait - the wealth of knowledge is huge !
I'm way down in South Lanarkshire but if you're ever passing on the way South you're welcome to come and see me (I'm only 10 min from the motorway)

Hi Emma,
There's a post in the coffee lounge section that explains how to do it, I only did it myself a wee while ago, but pregnancy has melted my brain and i can't remember what i did, sorry !
