Hi Folks, just come accross your site tonight whilst researching for info on environment / countryside / Conservation. I am hopfully going to begin a HNC in countryside management in the summer (distance learning) so i'm trying to build up my knowledge beforehand. Looks like i've struck gold finding your site and thank you all in advance for what looks like super info. Just had a quick nose around but i'm already impresssed, and the gallery photos are really good.
Other than researching/studying i spend too much time working and not as much time as i'd like outdoors hillwalking / biking.

Looking forward to reading more posts/forums.

p.s. i'm up in scotland

Hello Weeleo, and welcome.

Thanks everyone for the welcome,

Dan : It a woman after your own heart, but i'll let you off as the guess was 50/50, (leo's my initials, the name's Lorna) hee hee.
I will hopefully be studying countryside management at SAC (Scottish Agricultural college) it's flexible learning so i'll be attending weekend schools at ayr and aberdeen, and volunteering to get experience inbetween time.
It's going to take two years for the HNC so don't think i'll ever get to degree level, unless i win the lottery, give up my current job and study full time...

Hey Weeleo and Dave. You will really enjoy being here

There are a few nutters (well alright just me

) but seriously everyone on here is incredibly helpful and friendly and in my opinion you couldn't find a better bunch of people.
