Author Topic: Hello from Sussex in England (Read 3075 times)

Hello everyone, thought I'd introduce myself before having a browse around this lovely forum.

I live in West Sussex, England, with my husband and two lovely children. I enjoy gardening and all sorts of craft projects including soapmaking, quilting, sewing, knitting, papermaking, cardmaking and much more. I love cooking, baking and preserving. We have an allotment where we grow lots of vegetables and fruit. In our garden we have 6 hens and we're looking at adding a beehive. Next week hubby and I will be starting a beekeeping course with our local association, can't wait!

I'm off to have a browse around the forum now :D

Hello Jesse,

You will like this forum It's very good!!

I come from West Sussex too, although I live in N. Yorks. now. I went to school in -- dare I say it...Bognor Regis.!! :lol: :lol:

For our American Friends everyone laughs here if you say you come from Bognor Regis - It's all thanks to the BBC who send all their sit com characters there if they can't afford to holiday in more exotic places such as San Francisco or Florida!!! :lol:

Anyway Jesse have fun with the forum, and I wish you the best of luck with your bees. It's a wonderful hobby very satisfying and the honey is wonderful.

All the best

Rusty
