earth-thrower 490 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) I'm not sure where to post this , but have put it here as it's the section i visit most. I'm finally relocating to Sutherland after alot of thought , giving up my business and customers here has been harder to do than i thought it would be. All the business has gone to another local pest controller , so i just have to start from scratch all over again. Unless , i can find someone to sub for or buy some business from, who knows? Friday's the big day , then it's off to the Highlands. Well done, on 'taking the plunge',...& hopefully youll 'find your feet', up there, before too long,....now you are aware, its highly unlikely to be as dry as Norfolk (is it ?), arent you ? lol,.....(its ok though, cause it cant be more 'wet', than where i am,..much further south in Scotland, on the 'west coast',...which has got to be in contention,for the area, with the highest amount of rainfall, in the UK ! ) ATB Edited September 8, 2017 by earth-thrower Quote Link to post
Rowan 308 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 The move went well , just no T.V . , no internet and no telephone , but the scenery is incredible . I guess i'll have to have a week or two off until it's all sorted and then I can hopefully pick up some work. Good old library internet service . So far , I love it here . 3 Quote Link to post
