Post Hello from SE Ireland

Evenin' all. I hope to make a little contribution to the fund of knowledge in this nice place.More than 20 years ago I "downsized" to grow organic eggs and raise free range veggies and piggies and things like that and I am now in recovery Don't let anyone tell you that it is easy.But I did enjoy it until the old back gave up and now I am in the process of retiring.I have been studying Ecology since 1971 at different levels and I am lucky to live close to all sorts of wonders where I can put all the theory into practice.Did I mention that I hate windmills?
