thanks guys have been celebrating with elderflower cordial and champagne (v nice bit sozzled!) On the sheep front probably wiltshire horn and we can also start breeding our pigs now rather than getting weaners to fatten. Definately glad we decided to just go for it last year when we moved out of London rather than waiting for the right job and everything to be in place first.

Congratulations - I'm sure the sheep will more than make up for all those overnighters and call outs that you'll be missing... :D

Brilliant news  :thumbsup:
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Commuting in the London rush hour!!  Just awful.
Being certain just means you haven't got all the facts

I used to cycle across the Parks - not so bad.  On a good tube day, the tube took 17-22 minutes.  On a bad tube day I took 23 minutes, same as I did every other day - and the tube could take an hour and a half!  No contest.

I do miss the cycling but I do not miss London!
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
