i enjoy walking and pottering around
5'9 slim build and last time i checked i was about 10 st
no health issues
Born and raised on family dairy farm, where we had 200 cows and 400 acre in the heart of Cheshire,
We did everything ourselves from silaging to combining and yawing the grain and straw for feed and bedding cattle
Sadly my father was ill later on in life and we sold up and moved to the south of France where I cared for him full time, after he passed away I returned back to England to pursue a hgv driving career but I now feel something is missing in my life, yeah youve guessed it, cows, tractors open fields fresh air countryside
Please take a change, as you can see Ive plenty of experience and Im a very hard worker
Thank you for taking the time to read my details and cv
With Regards
Tom
