riane Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Well we have moved in and are settling down. Doing the usual fun and games with BT, Sky, Gas, Electric, Council Tax and trying to get a bin delivered! etc But we are really really happy. Let the chickens out into their new run today and OH had a go with rotavator. So much to do but I just keep stoppping to pinch myself. We were so lucky to get this house and even luckier to get the sale to go through on our old home. Any way got the internet to work tonight so have been catching up on forum. Here is a picture of our happy girls. Plenty of room for some more.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riane Posted July 13, 2008 Author Share Posted July 13, 2008 We are in a very small village called Stanfree, between Shuttlewood and Clowne. We are quite close to Bolsover castle if you know where that is? I work in Barlborough so its ideal, 8 mins to work and the childrens' school, 5 mins to a supermarket and Wilkinsons shop, yet surrounded by farms...lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
