    Its just coincidental that I had been exploring the possibility the day before you posted. After further consideration I don't think OH would be too enamoured with another house move, and I don't think I could cope with the stress levels.


    Unless I win the lottery and can find a remote spot with sea views I think its a no-goer!

          Oh SP. Oh, that looks so lovely.

          Wishing hard for you!

          And please, please, please can you run some gardening courses/retreats, so we can come visit and help pay the way?

            Now that's a great idea. Just one slight flaw that I can see. I'd need to know something about gardening first . I think if people are paying, they're going to expect and want to know a little more than how to wing it .

              I don't know if that's true, their are some on tv doing ok, put a high enough price on it and I think you would get quite a number of folk coming, just label it as getting back to basics, where you use the common names (Latin extra) teach them ditching, (which will help dry your ground) how to load a barrow safely when preparing the ground for a hut (creates your foundation) I am quite sure you could add some more activities to help prepair your ground
              By the way I would expect an invitation, all expenses paid, as I would be willing to be introduced as a visiting expert
              it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

                Just read an other thread, you sell the above as an experiance
                That way you don't need to be an "EXPERT"

                  Except in what exactly?

                    Does that mean I wouldn't need you either?

                          It would be a walk in the park for you.

                            2nd.= ALL expenses but we would be willing to travel as foot passenger's if it helps keep the cost down

                              Should have added, we would travel by bus so no transport costs other than the ferry
