hello from dorset

Post: # 1810Post carrot1 »

After 30 years of London life - commuting and sitting behind too many desks I now live in Dorset. Work part time and very early in the morning so I have all day to walk on the beach and work on the allotment.

Got my first plot a year ago and am hooked.

Its taken me 52 years to become the person I always should have been.

Now working towards a piece of land and a straw bale house. Dont know how long it will take but I know I will get there - wherever there is!

Helloo carrot1, so you're just up the road from me, in somerset, much calmer area down here than london eh?

Must be good to live near the beach, do you collect seaweed to use as liquid feed?

welcome to the site and keep us posted how the straw bail house goes
