A big hello :wave: from a student nurse in brimingham

[SamNurse]

just wanted to say you guys are great, ive read your book and found it very interesting
ive read lots of books on self suffeciency (mostly john seymours work) and your book is fun and easy to read with lots of good ideas.
ive already done (inspired by the book) registered on to freecycle and got a free and new bike so that i can cycle to placement along a canal i found links my place to work. This has the add on effect of making my fiance feel better beacuse she seems to think ill get run over on the roads.
Also im currently making a 'love quilt' (from the film 'american quilt') based on the design in the book for my fiance for our 1st year anniversity. if i can ill post a picture on the website when its done.
and im also collecting metro magazines to they arnt being thrown in the bins and ill start later making totallly recycled cards for birthdays, wedding, get well etc
for the future im planning on getting a house with my fiance and going to grow vegetables and get a allotment. being a nurse ill need some quiet and stress free time to myself.... hey maybe even she will join in
keep up the good work and ill post something later
