The thing is, Sologne, the only ones who take part in this thread, are the ones who have interesting breakfasts they want to show of. And I bet, not every day. I'm sure most of our breakfasts are cornflakes and milk :pukeright: or toast and marmelade :profileright: ! You are probably right, but the...

Well I would still eat/try the lot for breakfast. I certainly think, after reading this thread, that my porridge or toast breakfasts are absolutely BOARING...

Haaaaaa, the Monty Pythons, now here is a lesson on insults worth learning from

Hi Milly Molly, Yeah back in the country and it will be a year on the 24th......... ALREADY!!!! I am still not getting use to my mad country. So much paper work we filled up......... I think I will write a book about French services, and it may be a big book, because I already had way too many bad e...

OMG! You lot gave me an appetite!! I could have all of that for breakfast, lunch and dinner, yum, yum

You silly old sausage
I just love that one, always put a smile on my face. 1st time I heard it I was simply holding my stomach as I laugh so much...
Hum, maybe that is not what you are looking for....

Well done Skeast for the wood store, you should put some pictures. :iconbiggrin: Hubby just finished building a wood store with palettes too. You can see it on the web-site of our house (see link below). Any left over bits of palettes are used in the stove mixed with some oak. On another note... I j...

Hi Sam and welcome! :wave: I can't help you with the magazines, but I hope you find an answer and keep on enjoying your travelling for now. Are you currently in SA? Hubby lived down there for many years, lovely place. Being selfsufficent-ish in Africa should certainly be more simple to do than in Eu...

Welcome Kane

I think you will find a fair few people here who think like you, some who are learning, some who are in the middle of being self sufficient and some who are as self sufficient as one can be, but still strive to go further. So enjoy your visits.

We keep chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, rabbits, pigeons, sheep and Pigs. We still long for a nice red juicy beef steak though!!

Whoa, nice mixture. A nice piece of Limousin beef would be a nice addition. Some lovely steaks in those big cows.

Maybe you should get a cat for the mice if you don't have one yet. Ours tackled one this morning and dispatched the little thing in no time... The problem is I think no matter how many mice the cat can eat (and she is always catching some), there are always new ones about... We do have some barn owl...

Hi David, Yep, Sologne it is :iconbiggrin: I have never been to Limousin, but I suspect it is a nice place, a bit less wet than where we are I think. We certainly have a project and a half as I always say, but hubby is the one doing most of it. I only do some painting and the garden, so we can have ...

I've done all I wanted to do yesterday, plus some artichokes and some lettuces! I now have a big table near the window in our main room covered with little pots. I just have to wait and see what comes out. :iconbiggrin: Today I replanted; well separated; one of my aloes and I now have 9 new pots. No...

Nothing started yet, but really want to get on with it this week-end maybe, with tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines and artichokes at least...
