Title: Moving to Pembrokeshire
Post by: Hazel Hollow on December 06, 2013, 04:39:27 pm

Just to say hello and introduce ourselves, we are Ken and Elaine and we will be moving to Pembrokeshire next week to an 8 acre smallholding in Llanfyrnach, East Pembrokeshire. We've been keeping an eye on this site for a while but waiting til we had exchanged on the contracts for the house.
Looking forward to hearing from people in the area and welcome any hints as we get started.
A lot of work to do over the coming months before we get the usual livestock in the spring.
Ken

Linda, getting there slowly and not been on the TV yet, can't be long now. How's my pond doing at your place, being lovingly cared for I trust.

Beewyched, thanks for that, see you are into bees so we will hopefully be picking your brains next year and hope to meet up one day as you are not too far away.
Liz, we have met at the Builth Wells show this year, started picking your brains there and we have the books as well  :)

No problem - anyone who can find them is more than welcome to pick away  ;D

Shame I must have missed you at Builth - but you may have seen me about ... I was the one with purple hair & the Kunekunes, usually wearing dungarees when the white coat's not on - once met never forgotten, or so I'm told  :innocent:
 :love: :pig: :love:

Hello from Carmarthenshire

We moved to the farm here this summer and are totally loving it. It's so beautiful and everyone has been so friendly. We hope you are as happy in your new home as we are here, not so far away  :)
