My news!

Post: # 111686Post Ratty »

Well I've found my way back to the new lovely shiny forums (thank you Mr Headstring! ;)). And I've passed my Foundation Degree in Art & Design! Which means that I can take up my place at Nottingham Trent University to study BA Decorative Arts in October!

In other news, we went to West Wales last weekend to view some smallholdings and fell head-over-heels in love with a property with 1/2 acre back garden ... how very impractical/useless timing of us! :roll:

Wonderful news Ratty, many congratulations!

LOL, I've not heard degrees called Desmonds (and William Gs) for ages!
I took my dog to play frisbee. She was useless. I think I need a flatter dog.

Whereabouts in West Wales have you been looking, Ratty?

Thanks for all the kind messages :mrgreen:

Citizentwiglet - we've been looking at the area between Cardigan & Aberystwyth - Ceredigion. Do you know the area at all?

Yes Ratty, I do know that area quite well. I'm actually originally from a bit further south (Llanelli), but I spent three gloriously happy years in Uni in Lampeter. It really is a beautiful and strangely magical bit of the World. Good fertile soil in most areas too, from what I remember.
I'd go back there tomorrow, given half a chance.
