Title: Hello
Post by: gonebarmy on September 02, 2009, 09:55:13 am

Hi Everyone,

I'm new so let me introduce myself, My name is Natalie, I'm married with two children (10 & 6) and we live in Hampshire, we currently have two dogs, two cats, three chickens and a snake.

We desperately want to purchase somewhere with more land but that's out of the question for now so we are making do with our little veggie patch and chooks. In the meantime we are trying to prepare ourselves so that when the opportunity arises we can grab it with both hands.

Hello Natalie and welcome.  :)

Good luck with the land hunt, at least you can do veg and chooks for now.

Look like I'll need to get a snake icon sorted out...  :D

The snake is a royal python imaginatively named Monty, he is my eldest daughters and very entertaining.

I Have to say the snake is very much my eldest daughters, she saved up all her birthday money to buy him and he is certainly a lot easier to keep than a rabbit! It seems only fair as my youngest daughter monopolises one of the cats and loves the chickens. :chook:
