Hello from Bristol/Gloucester!

Hello everyone!

I'm a student so I split my time between the two places. I'd heard of Self-Sufficientish (or at least the book) aaaages ago, when I saw Andy and Dave do a talk on the Big Green Idea bus and was previously a member of the It's Not Easy Being Green forum (when it was that). I dabble in environmental campaigning mostly, but have always had a fascination with self-sufficiency, though it has (so far) proven to be fairly incompatible with student living. This year I'm vowing to try harder and you all seem like a pleasant, helpful bunch so I thought I'd start here. What brought me here now is I wanted to start foraging (for plants only - I'm vegan) in Bristol, and most people seem to be do fairly well in old Brizzle, and a lot of you seem to congregate here, so bingo! Plans also include self-sufficientish-ing up the parents' home, growing veg, worm composting, keeping chickens etc.

Again... hello!
