[QUOTE="Red Fred, post: 8107677, member: 189"] We keep our sheep for free just outside Bournemouth. It's the typical reclaimed heathy ground but hey-ho it's free. Mrs Fred has just been offered another 5 acres for free if we put the sheep on it, next to her horse paddocks near Poole. It's strange when the cost of land on the edge of BCP is so enormous, but retired folks buy their bit of ground and want it kept tidy without the hassle of horse girls. Dad used to tell us how in the 1930s, the agents used to offer dirt cheap market garden plots on the heathland to townies who fancied the good life and wanted to be "farmers". The soil always led to disappointment on the growing front, but most of the plots ended up with bungalows on them after the dream had faded. [/QUOTE]
