HELLO.
« on: November 05, 2009, 10:45:14 am »
Hello All,

I thought it only polite to introduce myself before I ask for your knowledge.

My name is Nick and I live in Derbyshire, I do not own a Smallholding but I hope to buy one in the near future if all goes to plan, and that is why I have joined.

Nick

You are most welcome, greenman!  I was just thinking - we could all go on a busmans holiday next year.  Swap smallholdings. Wouldn't cost anything other than transport, but it would still feel like a holiday being in someone else's house and looking after their animals, and it would feel like another holiday coming home  to our own!
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Hi Nick

I have just moved into my smallholding two weeks ago, so like yourself i'm at the start of the great adventure. I have only joined the site this week and already have learnt so much. The members here are really friendly and a bundle of information.  Good luck with your search, we were very lucky hope you are too.

Very warm welcome so thank you all, I am from Biggin by Hulland originally but for the last 4 years I have been living in Belper, however, after some advice I already gained on here I may be Nick from Normandy soon. You are all very lucky to have holdings already and I am so jealous (I say lucky but the reality is that most of you will have saved for years and worked 24-7 to get where you are, so probably not luck at all) Anyway, I hope that you will all be able to help me on this journey toward my life long dream & thank you all in advance for putting up with my stupid questions.
