Newbie from Inverness
« on: September 11, 2012, 05:25:58 pm »
Hi - having moved from Surrey three years ago we are gradually adapting to the good life up here! Apart from growing a lot of our own fruit and veg we have sixteen chickens, have raised a few turkeys for the last two Christmases and have just sent two large black pigs to the abbatoir :-(.

It has all been a steep learning curve but on the whole, enjoyable. Looking forward to the Smallholding show on 30th!

Welcome from a very cold and windy Somerset. :wave: We lived in Surrey for about 20 years. I'm sure it's a lot warmer there at the moment.

Hi Fruitful

We moved up to Aberdeenshire from Hampshire, just on the Surrey borders 8 years ago and it was indeed a steep learning curve, in fact we're still on it!

Hope to see you at the show.
