Another new person :)

Post: # 88387Post tamness »

hiya, having read quite a few of the posts on these boards (it's fantastic, it seems that theres not much that you guys can't do!) I thought I'd sign up and introduce myself.

My name is Tamzin, I'm 26 currently living in Rugby (Warwickshire) moving to Lincoln in the summer (can't wait). I've been reading and dreaming about self sufficiency for a few years, and having tried growing my own veg last year (was going really well until my ex sabotaged it but thats life eh?), I've decided to give it another go. At the moment I'm living with my mum while I'm going a degree in law, so I'm a bit limited as to what I can do, but we're already planning to grow as many vegetables as we have room for in pots/tubs/bins/whatever I can get my mitts on, and I've finally managed to convince mum not to throw everything out before I've looked at it and see if I can use it for something else. So it's positive little steps all the way here :mrgreen:

So yeah, thats a bit about me and what I'm up to, I look forward to chatting with you all. x
