| | | Hello from Colin
Hi, pleased to meet you all.
First of all, I am not a puppy. Max is my GSD and one of my best friends. I borrowed his name. I am a fifty-year old, bearded gentleman from Rochester in Kent. Glad we got that cleared up. (Woof!) I am married with two grown up kids, Max and two collies, (Tilly and Bess).
My wife and I are in the process of buying a small plot of woodland just across the border in East Sussex. Speaking dryly, it's an investment, something to sell when we are old and feeble. It is also a twenty-fifth wedding anniversary present for a couple of old nature lovers who need a project. I am looking forward to the learning experience and also to sharing and learning from you.
Although it is not ours yet, we visited this morning and were very lucky to see two adders within half an hour. There are also suposed to be wild boar, badgers and roe deer and lets not get started on the birds, I like birds. I cant wait to spend the night there and rise before dawn.
And then there is the bussiness of woodland management. Big project.
I look forward to posting and I will figure out how to do pics soon.
See Ya, Colin  |

Welcome to the site Colin. It's always been mine and the hubby's ambition to own some woodland so I am extremely jealous  And having a pup called Max myself your name caught my eye!
Hope you enjoy the site, I know I do!

Hello Colin and welcome to WAB. Wow, your own woodland area, sounds great. I would love that for myself some day. You're very lucky and I'm really looking forward to reading your posts and hearing all about your project. |

Hi Colin, it sounds as if you have a wonderful future ahead, to own your own bit of woodland must be a great prospect. Great news is that its gone to someone who cares and not developers. Welcome to WAB and good luck with your new venture . |
