Your mum hasn't seen it since.... Don't worry mate. your mum will be so very, very proud of you and more than impressed with what you've accomplished. As a 55 year old male and parent/grandparent and permaculture "farmer", I can tell you that what you have done since moving from London in ill-health, what you have accomplished so far is very admirable indeed. You are a man who has earned, and deserves a great deal of respect. You are indeed a true and "real" MAN! Even you were my son, I couldn't be more proud of you, what you have have achieved and who you are developing into (i.e. You 2.0 +...). Don't worry about what you mum will think, but put that energy and thought, into the quality of the time you do get to spend with her. You, young man, are indeed, "Worthy"..., as it were. Now..., I would like to mention again, that you and Dot, would find; "Permaculture: A designers manual; by Bill Mollison, would be the best investment you may ever make. Using the principles and methods of Permaculture, your land will be the most bountiful property in Wales with the least amount of maintenance work as well as making it a haven for wild-life. You have a really good start, but this could easily put it way over the top and make your dreams for the land and the local wildlife come true times ten. I want to see you have such abundant food that you have to give it away. Peace, Love and Light my friend!!!
