    Sounds like the Nature Notes would be about the Community AGM, not the wildlife :D AGMs can be like that!

    How big is the wild boar? Sounds a bit worrying.....
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
