At last my new Business cards have arrived and they look very good also a slight breakthrough in the website . At work a new employee happens to be a web  and IT specialist and says he will get a page up for me   My little green venture starts to move in a new direction of part time work any relief from the day to day hassle of sales.

since last i wrote, well, what has happened. The major commitment here would be our investment in a brand new Clearview pioneer 400  , and WOW this little metal box is the most amazing unit ive ever used.
From being five ive always had a real fire usually coal in the family, but i must say the heat this stove kicks out is beyond anything ive ever known, Just think a simple walk in the woods with a bag can gather enough FREE fuel for a week,not bad . My gas bills have almost gone except for a little hob cooking, even in cooking the electric oven element broke and we didn't replace and ive got to say we very rarely miss it.
we have suffered set backs too,  free solar power companies just keep giving various excuses, and with FITS dropping in value such companies must be on the verge of collapse in the market place. Food production also hit snags , the weather all but stopped this years crops , only a few new potatoes and some hardy onions tuffed it out.
 Ive also decided that my skills need to be passed on , so, im setting up a small gardening business called , you guest it  Greener life or bust. My aim to advise and help people with their basic garden work , lawns bushes small trees , in an ethical manner. ill try to recycle what i can, compost what i can and in some cases burn on our stove, if the latter  happens the timber will be part of my payment . Ill use our low carbon car that's if my bike and a trailer ( not purchased yet) cant be used.  So i thought ill buy a web domain  and so i did www.greenerlifeorbust.co.uk . But i cant work out how to use it with free web hosting sites or to use this blogg as my site, why is everything so complicated for us older ones who prefer paper ive got this domain for 2yrs that may be enough time for me to work it all out.
