    Relaxing as the farm will practically run itself :pac:

    If I'm lucky on the inheritance bit, then I'd like to run two flocks. I'll have an efficient young hill flock. A lowland flock that'll have a high lambing %. And hopefully another business I've been thinking of will be absolutely flying. I'd also like to be living on the farm, which would be a heeeuge bonus.

    I'd like to be farming full-time. My wife is an only child so we will haver hers to add to ours which will bring us to over 200 acres to farm at some time in the future. I'd be hopeful that there will be a living to be made from it. I'd like to keep working for a while though - maybe have a lot of the mortgage paid off and I'd like to be able to buy some land when it comes up for sale over the next few years.
