Hi,

lewkycatbon here. The username is an amalgamation of my four children's names Lewis, Kyle, Caitlin and Bonnie and yes there is a Scottish connection there. I am a very keen on upcycling, re-using, grow your own, chickens, etc. Just in the process of purchasing a Victorian cottage that has been part of an estate since being built in circa 1875 so we will be the first ever owners outside of this. Needs a great deal of work but it does mean that a woodburner can be installed before the renovation. The garden is 40 metres long and we are discussion to buy the land next to it. So be prepared for questions about badgers, tree preservation orders, bee keeping, etc!!

Regards

Jim
