Dear Fellow Bloggers,
I hope you can offer me some advice about Google+
Have you Plussed?
What benefits are there?
Are there any pitfalls?
I'm dithering because I'm afraid it will all become too much to handle but I've fallen out with the FB page I have.
I also have a problem in that they have a personalised URL for me but I have no mobile signal here so I can't take advantage of it.
Any thoughts or tips would be wonderful, thanks!

New Name; Same Old Blog
In May this year I decided to remove all the old blog posts from this blog.
I miss them.
I have set up a new, old blog under the name "A Small Holding In Yorkshire."
All of my old posts are there, however...
It is not going as smoothly as I anticipated especially as Picasa and Google+ appear to have got their undergarments in a twist and I'm missing all of my photographs.
I shall persevere and, hopefully, will get this page looking spit spot with new features, new photo's and links here, there and everywhere - and the new.old blog looking like it should.
If anyone is out there, please bear with me.
Thanks!

Messing With/Up My Blog
Well, I did some fiddling last night and it appears that all my current photo's have disappeared!
I hope to sort it our soon - more fiddling is required!
However, contrary to the rain forecast for today, it is dry and sunny, if a bit blustery so garden chores must come first.

About Us
Most smallholding journeys begin with growing your own food, progress to keeping a few chickens for eggs and then take the big leap into keeping larger livestock.
Our story is no different and we began this blog in 2010 when we took that big leap and decided to raise Rare Breed pigs for our own consumption.
The Pig and Chicken pages tell most of our story.
My previous post explains that I have deleted all the posts made since 2010.
In 2013 we realised a dream and moved from Yorkshire to Cumbria.
From a three bedroom house that had been in my family since my Great Grandparents time, to a "tiny house by a tiny stream" or, more specifically, a three bedroom bungalow.
The land we have now is slightly more than we had before and the plan is to continue where we left off.
To this end, our chickens moved with us and we already have this years pigs housed safely in their pen.
The garden is taking longer to transform than we anticipated, so we have a limited amount of produce in the ground. Still, compared to last year when we grew nothing, we are doing well!
Having deleted our history, some things will need to be re-introduced. Apologies to old friends and followers but I am hoping some new friends will come along.
The family at present consists:

Me and Steve

Amber & Molly - two young Labradors coming up to their 2nd birthday
Six Chickens
Two British Saddlebacks.
I have stories about them all and photo's will be in abundance.
