Hi, I'm Ray. An Irish man with an English wife living in West Wales with children who sometimes get confused!
I too had a dream of a smallholding for years, and finally, 61/2 years ago, we took the plunge. We have four acres with a further ten acres that we rent locally in the summer. We have a Jersey cow who is refusing to be put in calf, 7 ewes and a ram, we have just started lambing, three weaners, all the other pigs are in the freezers, some chickens and bees.
I have been taking part in a forum in the USA for some little while and came across TAS by accident. I'm looking forward to a good time as you all seem to be enjoying it.
Ray
