Hi from deepest darkest Devon

Post: # 24229Post colhut »

Hi,
Well, we grow our own veg (not much though). have a few fruit bushes, recycle anything we can, always use carrier bags for bin liners and I always keep a bag in the car (you never know when you might end up in a shop). The exciting thing for us is just having had an offer acepted on a house that has over 2 acres. The dreams are endless at the moment. I am just paranoid that something will go wrong and we will lose it.

Where abouts in Devon are you, I'm just over the border in Somerset- we should have our own SWishers branch there are so many of us!
