A kind of Hello
« on: September 09, 2017, 01:43:30 pm »

Ive been a member since 2010, I used to be on here quite a bit, I had an accident just over a year ago which i'm now recovering from, so haven't been on for a year so thought it best to say Hello.


We have a tiny place in Devon
We have approx. 50 hens which we sell eggs at the gate
10 Khaki Ducks & a couple of Geese for enjoyment (never had an egg from them)
We grow apples for juice, elderflower for sparkling wine, 3 plums, 1 pear, strawberries & rasberries, an allotment although that hasn't gone too well this last year.


We like to recycle and make stuff, I know a bit about solar panels and water filtration.
Almost an expert on Chapter 7 planning matters.

That's a long time to recover, but so glad you're well enough to join in on here again  :wave: . Take it easy though.


We've had times when the veg patch has had to be abandoned through ill health, but you've got the winter to get to grips with at least a part of it.  Just cover any you can't manage with a tarp  :garden:

sorry to hear about you raccident, hope you are feeling better now :) Really missed you tbh, I was wondering where you had got to! How time flies lol.  It sounds brilliant :)
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.
