Where does one start with a first blog post? Let's dive in and hope everyone gets up to speed eventually. First however, I feel it's only polite to provide a quick dramatis personae (and possibly also a glossary; I do tend to use too much Latin).
Me - I prefer not to describe myself, since it's much more interesting to let people work it out for themselves.
K - my lovely, long-suffering, sun-deprived South African partner. Marginally less crunchy than me, but very tolerant. Has a real job (three, actually) and aspires to cow ownership.
My Parents - they live in North Yorkshire, but are always on hand to provide a vegetable-growing-troubleshooting hotline.
Emily Pickles and Brian - their cats. Since I live in rented accommodation and can't have a cat, these will have to do. Emily has just had kittens :-)
Z - The Australian next door. Also aspiring to an organic lifestyle, she has more uses for vinegar within the home than I ever thought possible.
D - Zoe's husband. See above comment on 'long-suffering'.
About Me
- The Organic Viking
- Cambridge, United Kingdom
- In an ideal world, I would be living on a smallholding in the beautiful English countryside surrounded by cats, chickens, black labradors, my naughty but adorable children and a much-loved flock of hand-milked goats. As it is, I'm doing a PhD in Early Medieval History at the University of Cambridge and spend most of my days reading Latin in a library somewhere. But why should that stop me?
