Greatwood - The Book

There has been a bit of a silence from this end, to say the least.

I have been flying around, but the main reason for the lack of news is because I have been asked by Harper Collins Non Fiction to write a book about Greatwood.
This is great news but the writing of the book is going to take a huge amount of time. The deadline is at the beginning of March, which in itself poses a problem because of all the work over the winter when the horses have to come in. But hey ho.
It is exciting to have been asked and I hope I do it justice.
This brings me to another point, having to write 75,000 words by March will probably mean that I will have precious little time to write the blog. Therefore, we have decided to wind up the blog, but we will continue to keep you up to date with news on the main site.
Just before I sign off (for the time being anyway), I have to ask something.
Does anyone in Wiltshire have a good tempered,and good Jack Russell dog? I don't care if he isn't the prettiest....
Mabel, (see on website under 'About Us') is my sweet Jack Russell. We have kept the same family for something like 60 or 70 years. She is the last in the line and I can't find a dog that has long enough legs....!!
If you do know of anybody it would be great, I would really appreciate it.
Anyway, all from me for a bit, I will still write the newsletter.....
Thanks for reading this over the last few months.
Best, Helen
