I've been a lurker on your blog for the last four years, but now it's time to make my very first post. <br />I love, love, love to read about your adventures of finding a perfect place to live, your gardening, your animals, and so on. I like your style of writing, your humor, the way you look at your life and the beautiful photos of the landscape, the farm and your four-footed family. Sure I do some things in another way as you do them, but you are you and I'm me, and that's ok. It is impertinent to arrogate to tell you how you have to live your life. (Phew, what a sentence. I hope I have done it right :-)) You are so generous to let us take part in your life. Please ignore these know-it-alls.<br />Don't go private, please! I will miss you very, very much!<br />I hope I haven't expressed myself wrong (with the help of the Google Translator).<br />Best regards from Germany (The home of the Landlust is just around the corner ;-) )<br />Petra<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-31997226293870065042016-01-13T16:58:14.805+00:002016-01-13T16:58:14.805+00:00I know I have only commented a few times, but I lo...I know I have only commented a few times, but I love reading your blog. I read your blog because it is so interesting. I live in Texas and I find you do many things like we do and some completely different. With every project you start I can't wait to the progress you have made. You would be missed if you went private. You are one of my favorite blogs I read.

Your blog has provided the basis of many conversations with my husband as you make YOUR choices in the life YOU want to lead. Your challenges are inspirational and we are in awe of your veg growing. The icing on the cake has been your move to near my home town of Llanrwst - now when my Mum says it has been raining I reply "yes, I saw the flooding on Sue's blog"! syrahsuziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00696752759302952768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-48032704469065122892016-01-13T14:06:59.328+00:002016-01-13T14:06:59.328+00:00Fabulous Sue, you couldn't be more right.

You are doing what I aspired to, but never achieved. Working full time doesn't help, but I didn't have your drive. I admire what you are doing, as it takes effort. Nay Sayers should just be ignored. I reckon if you can't say something nice, don't say anything, especially on someone else's blog. I hope you keep on as always, as I enjoy my daily read. By the way, you did well to find a pic of a ray's arse.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02288331185772160975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-33371874218479750632016-01-13T11:20:39.079+00:002016-01-13T11:20:39.079+00:00So sorry you've had unhelpful comments on your...So sorry you've had unhelpful comments on your blog.

I admire you greatly on working for what you want, and living the way you choose.<br /><br />Sour grapes from some people who want to pick, and grind, don't worry a bit about what they say.

Fruits and veg. growing in Feb. and March!! OMG! I read all the above comments and agree with them all, I notice one blogger is very conspicuous by their absence. Hmm, interesting. I especially like reading your blog because I am originally from Manchester and you often mention places that I remember.

You know your way of life, you know your own mind, your life is to be lived the way you want it - and that's that! Glad in the post above that you got it out of your system by cleaning out the cupboards.

I have not followed your blog from the beginning but I have back-tracked to find out how you started out in your ventures. I have loved every minute of it and I think for people like yourself to share your lives and give other people an insight into your way of life is a marvellous thing to do. I find it very inspiring - and it's people like you that provide this inspiration (and I would imagine many other people would feel the same way too). So THANK YOU so much for your inspiration and your generosity in sharing with other people. I suppose in all walks of life you get some negative, annoying people. Stuff them and carry on with your lovely blog so people like me can enjoy - Kind regards, Louise, Cheshire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-1759560262197045702016-01-12T15:27:34.925+00:002016-01-12T15:27:34.925+00:00as I said to Sue in Suffolk, The internet is full ...as I said to Sue in Suffolk, The internet is full of opinions and "helpful" people.
