Hey all

just wondering if you guys have watched this show at all, it's a really good shoe about small holding by a guy named Hugh fearnly-whittingstall who has enough with living in the city and starts his own small holding. really good for starting info as he does everything from scratch, and always asks seasoned professionals in the fields for advice and help. he has even started a river cottage Australia (which i applied for but didn't make it through as i am not a chef)

sweet noworries

i had to answer heaps of questions of how i feel living off my own food and own land, i thought i done pritty well hey. but the mian questions that let me down were 1.are you a chef 2. would u relocate if you had to

i was worried that i would be relocating my wife and son to some middle of nowhere place in australia in which ,y wife would later leave me because all she had to talk to was some chicks and goats and no other family in close reach lol so i answered no

but it feels good when people io know well tell me that i would have been a better candidate than the person they picked = ) always makes ya feel good

sounds like it would have been a great adventure and opportunity, but it sounds like your new place is going to be awesome
