But the Kindle is great for when you go away or for reading in bed (it's so light).<br /><br />And the best bit, there are LOADS of free classic titles that you can download onto it.<br /><br />I love it already, but I still have hundreds of books!!<br /><br />Sue xxSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-88863566806328924302012-09-30T07:39:48.898+01:002012-09-30T07:39:48.898+01:00Hi rustyduck, nice to meet you.

Taking down the fence, hitching the 3 houses one by one onto the back of the truck and dragging them to their new locations, moving all the drinkers and feeders, mowing where the fence line will be and then re-erecting the fences and staking the corners.... and we have to get all the birds back in. There's always one or two that stubbornly refuse to get back behind the fence, yesterday one of the Pekin Cockerels simply ran into the woods, he hasn't been seen since!!<br /><br />We're always ready for a sit down after that little lot. <br /><br />We do this every two months to make sure the birds have fresh grass and to let the old patch recover. We have four moves in our near paddock for doing this.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-72274780576806372822012-09-30T07:34:00.793+01:002012-09-30T07:34:00.793+01:00I think you're doing pretty well yourselves!! ...I think you're doing pretty well yourselves!! <br /><br />You have me amazed and full of admiration with your cost cutting.... and the fact that next month is your LAST EVER MORTGAGE PAYMENT....well....what an absolute achievement.<br /><br />We've yet to even begin.<br /><br />Sue xxSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-77008242273512501082012-09-29T23:28:55.098+01:002012-09-29T23:28:55.098+01:00Do you have a Kindle?

Moved down to the West Country to restore a run down old cottage and make something out of a few acres of land. I don't have any animals yet, but when things settle down on the house front, I will. <br /><br />Look forward to following your progress, Jessica. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-67463811757077525722012-09-29T18:55:40.426+01:002012-09-29T18:55:40.426+01:00I'm not after a Kindle, thanks all the same Su...I'm not after a Kindle, thanks all the same Sue.

As you know.<br /><br />Oh, Sue I wish you could pop round and 'advise' us about how to be self sufficient like you. It so wonderful to read about what you produce.<br /><br />We've done well with onions, potatoes and strawberries this year but that is about it.<br /><br />Sft xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17545087114808861192noreply@blogger.com
