Allow myself to introduce myself

[Sven]

I encountered this site whilst looking up information on dealing with rats on my allotment . . . and was pleasantly surprised to find some useful advice.

I've dreamed of becoming more self-sufficient for years, but more so as time goes on and the issues feel more crucial. I've been "greening" my lifestyle ever since visiting a "Living without cruelty" exhibition in Kensington back in 1990.

Currently I'm a sixth form geography teacher who tries to instill green thoughts in my students every day!!

I'm looking forward to exploring this site

Hi Sven
Welcome to the site.
I live the other side of Brighton. This is my first year of growing organically (before that I was Miracle Gro Bod ). Sorry, I won't swear on this forum again.
It's been hard work, but a lot of fun, and I've made loads of mistakes - although not as many as I would have made had I not found this site!

Welcome to the forum Sven, would be interested to hear what you did to deal with your rats.
