I might know a few people on here from previous forums. Thought I'd join up as this place looks really interesting................I'm a crofter and crafter in Shetland, have a little bit of land, keep a cow, sheep, geese, ducks, and chickens, sometimes weaners. We try and grow lots of veg both in a polytunnel and outside. The weather is harsh, especially at this time of year, just to give you an idea - all the garlic I planted in November is only just starting to peep through.
It sounds idyllic but as my husband is in full-time employment and my kids have just left home and we are so remote, it can get very lonely in the winter-time
The summers are nice though!Anyway look forward to making some new friends
Thanks everyone!
