Hello folk. I would like to help but my time is limited. Would it be worthwhile for me to duplicate blog posts that I have already written, as articles for Downsizer (possibly with some amendments). Cheers!

Hello there. Welcome to DS. We're always on the look out for new articles. What subjects have you covered? We also have a sticky post listing all our blogger's sies if you'd like adding.

Hi,

My articles tend to be speculative rather than very useful 'how-to' articles. Is that any good? I mean, I will often talk about principles of permaculture in general and not necessarily give infromation that can benefit people practically...but I have written on a few things so I'll get back to you soon.

Yes big PLEASE add us to your sticky list. Our website is www.silenthavendevon.wordpress.com

We are a mixture of conservation woodland, self-sufficient smallholding (just starting) and similarly a fledgeling land-based business.

Thank you again!

Matt

I'd never thought about that sig so just did a quick google for the phrase.
Jamanda, does it really translate as "My hovercraft is full of eels?"
I'm still grinning at how random that is!

It does - it's a Monty Python quote.

And is to check out how many people actually can read Welsh? A sort of secret signal like a freemason's handshake?
