Hi All

Thought I would do the decent thing and say hello. I based in wiltshire, I won't say loads about me here, have a look at my site if you want to know more.

Thanks for this lovely site, I look forward to learning from people on here and throwing in any advice I have to offer.

All the best.

Gert

I'm on the other side of the county, south of the plain, but I'm sure our paths cross at various livestock markets and the like. We've probably already met :lol:

Hi and welcome
So you live near Warminster. I lived there for many years as a teenager before emigrating to Swindon.

I'm dead jealous of your smallholding. All I can manage is afew hens.

I love the comment on your blog about clearing up the remins of a rodent each morning. I can identify with that.

Cheers
Zoe

LOl, I'm glad it's not just me that faces this every day. Thanks for the Welcome, I must admit that although the Smallholding is lovely, there are times when I wish I only had a couple of hens.

Do you have any pics of your set up? I'm always interested to see what other people are doing, and how they do it.

Cheers

Gert
