Re: Portable Farms

Erm - is this a joke but this is off their website: "Portable Farms™ LLC will NOT be developing and manufacturing their signature perfume, Eau de Ick." The kit costs USD 2,000! Still - food for thought :lol: Zoe Hi Zoe, The website's on line again. Your best bet would be to study the kit ...

Portable Farms

Hi Guys I picked this up off http://www.keelynet.com the other day and visited the company's website, which appears down today. Anyhow here's their information which for "localvores" should be of huge interest: Portable Farms(TM) LLC announces the availability of their new invention, Porta...

Oh Pete, that conjured up one heck of a picture (and if I'd been your neighbour I'd have likely got the camera out :mrgreen: :shock: ) Shame about the greenhouse but it makes for a great story. Hi Shirley .... yes it wasn't a pretty sight, not for the faint-hearted - I hear the ex-Neighbour is stil...

Aha Pete - one is from a nautical background having enjoyed significant worldly travels at the taxpayers expense.. :wink: I do sympathise with the midnight semi-nudity, wrestling with your tunnel.

A really lovely website you have there. Your poly-tunnel reminded me of the time I lived next door to a nightmare of a ne...

Hello Pete Welcome Merci pour votre accueil chaleureux! So you are settled in France - what a nice lifestyle for the idle rich!

Hi Pete :hello2: Thank you for the kind hello - oddily enough I was just chatting to someone a few moments ago, who was telling me of his friend from Notts who had a Lace Making business, that's sadly gone. He now creates original designs for the Japanese Lace Industry. Still where's life there's h...
