Far Lands

We have started. Sarah took the day off, and we planted 69 trees.

Hope they are appreciating all that dung! Full report next week.

James Ellson: I divide my time between developing our smallholding, managing our holiday cottage and writing. On our smallholding we have 10 chickens, turkeys at Xmas and are just about self-sufficient in fruit and vegetables. My current focus of interest is grafting fruit trees. After finishing my memoir, Cop Down, which described my breakdown at work, I have written two detective thrillers, Missing and Manhunt. I am looking for a publisher. But then, or so it seems to me, everybody else is too!
