Anderso,
I am currently in the south (12 miles from Bournemouth) but am moving to a small holding in south west Wales in the near future. Hopefully about 3 weeks time. Currently I just have a cat and dog but intend to have some poultry, pigs and who knows what else when I move.  Thats when the fun begins.

Its good to see the great ones are about in the southwest This week end is a busy one as it is our 12 Anniversary and my birthday tomorrow (a simple but effective plan to never forget the anniversary)
to let you know we have about 1/3 acre (old money for measurements) which produces most of what we need in veg, chickens (and getting more) ducks11of 12 our adapted pig until May when we will have to adopt a new one (for some reason they only seem to last around 26 weeks and many thousands of honey bees around the fields. plus the dog spay a boarder collie who is not sure if hes a dog, chicken or duck?   :wave:
