Skype is the GO, we use it a lot with Family over seas.It is great, especially if you can see each other.

give it a go

thanks Robyne and Mistyhollows.

what about sawdust?it`s readely available for pickup from sawmills.

good thing about is, it can be allways added and changed with out extra cost`s.

good luck

Just trying, wellcome to the site.

would it be possible for you both to try Wwoofing for a while. you wont then lose your base, can see what it`s like to farm on a dayly basis, and you can test your limits regarding your health issues.

just an idea…

yuck yuck yucky rats and mice, but at least you have the cats to dispose of them.

happy hunting

Hello Bron,

guess what, i have a Leopard Tree growing from the seeds you kindly send us. Now i am hoping that more seeds germinate.

thanks again

done

I know it`s not today that i picked Strawberries and Garlic, but wanted to brag.
hope fully there are more Strawberries today, as they are yummi.

Picked another lot of those strawberries.

Rhubarb and strawberries seem to like each other,as they are growing together.

we picked Rhubarb and strawberries, yum.

i also set up some vodka and vanilla beans for extract.

on the same day i noticed the change in colour. cant wait to
actually use it.

thanks bushy.

i know i have struck some from cuttings, but very slow to grow.

grrrrr, found some strawberries pecked this morning.with the net over them and all. we even pegged it away from the bed.
thinking again what to do next.

SilentC, the net does help to a large extend though.
good luck

thanks Penny, but our net seems to work.

have you tried sawdust as snails dont like crawling on it.

that does`nt count Girl Friday,ha ha.

it sure is a challenge busylizzie.but we are happy with the little bits we get.
your place remains me of what we used to have. large fields of vegies, as we where
market gardeners for a long time,and a number of years ago.i do appriciate your loss.

keep up the great job
