terryd 8,045 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Good luck Jamie looking forward to seeing how you get on. Personally having not owned a bit of land since I was a young fella it was quite some thing standing on my plot after signing for it and thinking wow this soil is mine to use at as long as I keep paying the bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
