In other news, we went to West Wales last weekend to view some smallholdings and fell head-over-heels in love with a property with 1/2 acre back garden ... how very impractical/useless timing of us!

My news!
Well I've found my way back to the new lovely shiny forums (thank you Mr Headstring! ;)). And I've passed my Foundation Degree in Art & Design! Which means that I can take up my place at Nottingham Trent University to study BA Decorative Arts in October!

Re: My news!
Wonderful news Ratty, many congratulations!
LOL, I've not heard degrees called Desmonds (and William Gs) for ages!

I took my dog to play frisbee. She was useless. I think I need a flatter dog.

Whereabouts in West Wales have you been looking, Ratty?

Re: My news!
Thanks for all the kind messages
Citizentwiglet - we've been looking at the area between Cardigan & Aberystwyth - Ceredigion. Do you know the area at all?

Re: My news!
Yes Ratty, I do know that area quite well. I'm actually originally from a bit further south (Llanelli), but I spent three gloriously happy years in Uni in Lampeter. It really is a beautiful and strangely magical bit of the World. Good fertile soil in most areas too, from what I remember.
I'd go back there tomorrow, given half a chance.
