[aud]

Hello there. I was given this link by a mate, i am sure she is on here somewhere but havent the faintest idea what her username is.

Anyway i am Auds and live in sussex with a selection of feathered and furry animals. I have a large garden and spend a great deal of time spending what money i havent got, in garden centres.
My family were self sufficiant so i grew up with life and death and large quanitys of mud.
Anyway i think i may enjoy myself here, so thankyou for having me xxxx

Feathered friends, well i keep loads of free range chickens and ducks and yes i am sad enough to give them all names, they are layers so i can name them. I also have geese. We used to breed them for dinner but After my dad died we kinda got out of the habbit, so now they are just lawnmowers.
As far as furry goes, really i have only a dog and two cats, but over the years we have kept, pigs, goats, cows and at one point sheep. My father also kept bees he had 5 hives, We had honey then and used to sell it at local stores.
Really when i was young our family tried just about everything from wine making and beer making, to breeding quails. Lets just say our freezer was never empty. I am lucky enough to still be at the family home, i live with my mum now. and we are kept busy in the garden. And we have made some real changes.
we are hoping to get pigs again, but its so expensive to fence places now.
Yes i heard this site is really fun .

thanks again and see you around the site xxx
