Title: Hi from Clwyd
Post by: Moel on July 11, 2013, 08:48:22 pm

Hi from a very sunny north Wales.
We moved here from Cheshire 2 years ago and have been renovating since.
We have a couple of acres with chickens, turkeys and an orchard.
Next project will be filling the raised beds ....... just need to find 10 or 15 tons of manure to go with the topsoil!

Hope it's as sunny near you

 :wave: welcome from  :sunshine: :sunshine: :sunshine: Shropshire. If I was nearer I could help you out with manure. Just filled two deep raised beds with a load but still plenty left and the goats keep producing it.

Thanks everyone.
Lovely evening here using the bargain eBay ride on mower to keep the orchard in order (£100 bought a fully functioning 1980's westwood, just needed a new battery and some Hammerite on the deck!), couldn't be better after a long week at work.
The manure hunt starts afternoon after I've redone the pointing on the outhouse, will try the local livery first.....

Enjoy the sunny weekend

Thanks Gerpsych,
Made me laugh!
If it was bullshit that was needed my wife would tell me I could fill it twice over!
