Northerner Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) I've been working on it for a while, maybe 10 years. It went unconditional today. I've finally bought a place with land, a home, a retreat, a track for the kids to ride their bikes, the forest next door but not close to the house, a huge shed, close to work, an outdoor area, humid and lush. For those of you who have done this before I tip my hat, it almost drove me nuts. It's a long path with many choices filled with pros and cons, sacrifices and benefits. Now I'm planning greenhouses and chicken coops, raised beds and natural fences. Edited March 15, 2018 by Northerner 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drildo Posted March 16, 2018 Grats Northy, Your kids will fucking love it, your mrs will fucking love it (if shes still part of the equation), you yourself will fucking love it... There's gonna be SO MUCH fucking love, fucking all sprayed over the fucking jointtttt mate. Saturated. Drenched in the lovemuck. Get bulk cactus dude, some mad columns will look fantastic growing out of those stones round the gazebo. Talk to Interbeing, Godless, Toast, Spooge (just to name a few). These boys have GREAT CLONES at very competitive prices (their full time professions I assume). Also a big congrats on fixing your screen name back to what it was. As far as I'm concerned thats yo fkn birth name and you were mental to fk with it - own it. (Good job SAB moderators) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drildo Posted March 16, 2018 Discreetly fill that neighboring forest with some Erythroxylum australe for shits n giggles, why not? Make your boiz a flying fox too mate!! or a 300metre long fkn slip n slide.. They can charge entry fee on the weekends, get a sign painted up n shit: "The Slippery Gypsy" (FNQ's longest slip n' slide) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northerner Posted March 19, 2018 Thanks for the huge boost Skel, you're a legend mate. Mrs Northy is planning the furniture and details that I miss, she's good at that sort of thing. I'm gonna set various species of psychotria free in the forest, being an understory and that everything loves to eat them I don't reckon they'll get out of hand. All is go... just signed the final (or what I think is the final) document today, Justice of Peace present and all. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northerner Posted April 24, 2018 Finally starting to settle after the move, finding homes for my plants and planning the areas for my shade house and chicken coop. Misty mornings... all is well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
