Hi everyone, I've been having a look around and found it most interesting and thought I'd join you all. So be gentle, I'm new

We're all gentle on here

Nicest set of forummers I've ever met!

Tell us all about yourself. I'm Annie, have 4 dogs, 2 cats, 4 ducks, 10 chooks, one acre - garden with smallholding aspirations. Welcome to the funny farm

Thanks everyone for your gentle warm welcome.

. I have been doing gardening for most of my life but started to get serious in 1968 when I started to learn it professionally, went through college and night classes and ended up being head gardener (instructor) in 1976 to 1996 for a government agency where I had control of a 4 acre vegetable and fruit farm, which also included under glass production. Now I have a reasonable sized veg and fruit plot with all the machinery toys any man / woman could ever want, IMO

. I have had hens here for the past 10 years but just got them new homes as I’m stocking will pullets this coming spring again. Oh, can’t forget the Scottie dog and cat I also have.

Once again, thanx for the warm welcome
