    I really like the farm when it has been raining, what a transformation.
    It is nice to see that all your hard work is being rewarded.

      Thanks VM, it's like having 2 farms in one. A green one & a brown one depending on the seasons.
      Thankfully though, the land is staying greener for longer as the years pass.

    I have an idea. Can you imagine coconut and palm trees alongside the lake? There's a variety of banana that have small banana fruits. They are tasty. By the way, I don't kaffir lime tree. I don't the magic to grow it myself. I planted them 3 times already. All became something else, not kaffir.

    You will get frustrated trying to start the 2 stroke. I don't regret eventually becoming smart and spending the extra on the Honda 4 Stroke. Great video and lots of information. After encouraging you to get goats a few years ago before you started pleased to see you are still making progress. I miss ours having got rid of them but it is hard work (we got to 44) and to lose any is crushing. Keep going and happy to hear you so positive.

    • @TLFarm
      @TLFarm  Рік тому +1

      It broke yesterday after 3 months of ragging it almost daily.
      Yeah, I do miss the Honda but we could have bought x4 2 strokes for the same price.
      If the Mrs wins the Lotto we'll be splashing out ASAP lol.
      Goats have changed both our lives for the better & helped to transform the farm from acres of moonrock & swamp areas into something unrecognizable.
      We'll keep going with the herd for as long as possible & hope the market returns to pervious highs.

    Well done Toon and Leigh. You have an excellent documentary record. Might be a good adjunct to the New Theory initiative of the old King. Learrning from mistakes, adapting to challenges, in the end a very successful enterprise. Ever thought of doing hands-on classes and seminars sponsored by the government?

    After years of waiting due to Brexit and Covid and slow UK property market, we have landed in Thailand permanently. Too busy to visit you as we are building a house but please warn Toon that she will soon meet a Welshman who is possibly the world's finest angler. I am glad that you are not bored 😀

    Great video. I make up that horticultural white oil concentrate and dilute it up in a spray bottle. My mission in life is to act as citrus bug (very prevalent here in South East Queensland) sniper every morning and try to wipe them off our makrut, Thai lime and Tahitian lines. I find if I'm accurate with my aim, any other insects are safe. Very effective option.

    Getting more shades ok but it also brings the mozzys with it, lands look good as for weeds "One Mans weed is another's mans feed" so plenty of fodder for the lawnmowers.if you can you should freeze that lime juice as it only last 3 days in the fridge but up to 4 months frozen i freeze mine in ice cube trays, Have you any dragon fruit growing there, All in all everything look ROSEY lol

    Mate the farm is looking splendid, so lush and green. I think the 1st flowering plant you couldn't remember the name of was a Hibiscus and the 2nd one was an Oleander? I do like you it when you call them Yabbies and not that Yank name Crayfish as they are Aussie and their not a fish.

    I love the long walk about the farm vlogs a lot. Love learning about all the plants you have on the land.
    As for the far stay, I’d love to come and experience that. I have a question, how’d you get around the visa to allow people to work on the farm? Or do you still need a work permit?

    • @TLFarm
