I've got an Award!!

A HUGE, HUGE thank you to Sarah at landcuckoo http://landcuckoo.blogspot.com/ for giving me my first ever award.

It made my day.

Seemingly I now have to pass it on to three other lovely bloggers. They can then display it on their sidebar. Just click on the picture and then save it and paste it on to your blog. (I actually saved it on my blog photo pages and downloaded it as a photo, worked a treat!) Then all you do is tell people where it came from and nominate three of your favourite blogs. This is the way we can introduce lots of folks to different blogs and spread around the lovely reading.

I have so many favourites, choosing is very difficult, but I have finally decided on

Jane at http://posy.typepad.com/

Sally at http://salssnippets.blogspot.com/

and Denise at http://abuncandance.blogspot.com/

They are all blogs that make my heart smile, (as the award says)....what more can you ask?

Comments are now turned off for this old blog of mine. Thank you for reading the posts, I hope you enjoyed them. xx

This was my Blog, just me writing about our day to day life learning all about and then living the smallholding life. First we started on a farm in Oxfordshire, then we moved to a smaller place in Berkshire (both in England) and then we found a place of our very own at the bottom of a hillside in North Wales. Along for the ride were all our various animals, and we ended up with just our dogs, Suky and Mavis, our cat Ginger .... who secretly thinks he's one of the canine gang, a sheep called Ethel who wandered in off the road and stayed... and a roving band of egg laying chickens that live cheek by jowl with the local wildlife.

We grow our own fruit and vegetables, selling surplus plants and edibles at the gate. We sell the eggs the chickens lay, we reuse, recycle and rethink ... and life ticks over at a pace that suits us.

It was simply the wild and wacky ramblings of a 50 something townie turned country girl called Sue, who lost her heart to a sailor and started a new life in the country .... many years ago. On a path that took us from Cumbria to Oxfordshire, to Berkshire and then we found our home at the bottom of a wet and windy Welsh hillside by a busy main road.

Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and relax into a world of dogs, cats, chickens, polytunnels and veggies with the occasional grass munching sheep thrown in for good measure.

Sue xx

Our New Life in the Country is my blog.

I use it to chart the day by day, week by week, year by year goings on in mine and Lovely Hubby's life. In it I also express my views and opinions, and say what I do and occasionally how I do it. I am hoping that this will prove to be a useful reminder for myself of how we did things, as we continue in our learning process.

If you chose to follow my practices it is assumed that you will do so with care and consideration, and question where necessary any methods or techniques I use to your own satisfaction and match them to your own circumstances.
