Post by: Alistair on September 05, 2012, 11:41:34 am

Hello.

Just that really, hi, I'm Alistair, we are just beginning the small holding process, got a few ex battery chickens, and are looking to move shortly, more land, smaller house etc.

I'm a shearer by the way. Just in the process of setting up on my own for next year.

Anyway that's it really, oh and hello again.

Elbow WILL get better!

Better had do, anyway Crutching lambs tomorrow & Friday, like doing that!

Never say I'm too far away luckylady, my sister lives in Yorkshire and I stay up there quite a lot, where there's a will there's a way, introductory offers etc etc etc..

Only downside is I had a tooth out today, think the dentist punched me, not sure when but it was definitely whilst I was on the laughing gas, it HURTS, a lot.

Your a friendly lot, I like that
