Yippee.

It seems ages since I updated my blog page and there's been so much going on, so here goes with a quick round up of news.

I've been asked to start a new series in 'Smallholder' magazine, of top tips for the month starting with the July 2015 issue - I'm really pleased to have been asked to do this and I've got all kinds of things in my sights, so watch out for this if you are the smallholder in your family.

I'm just about to interview a farrier who farms - a very busy man, and can't wait to hear about his take on rural life; that's for something I've got planned later on in the year.

Pigs have featured heavily this month too and I'm just about to write up a very interesting evening spent listening to a pig vet, who also farms. (There are a lot of busy folk out there).

The best piece of news so far this month is that there's a new book out by Sarah Hendrickx called 'Women and Girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder', to which I've contributed. It's published by Jessica Kingsley and is available directly from them priced at £14.99 www.jkp.com/uk/women-and-girls-with-autism-spectrum-disorder.html
