At the age of 13 I was lucky enough to have a place on the Farming Course from 1963 to 1966. I was from an urban environment and going to a little village school was just bliss for me. I just loved the course and got on so well Mr Shorney who taught us about agriculture. Working on the school farm during the second year was a real eye opener collecting food waste from the primary school for our pigs and a little bit of milking of cows. Joe Grace, the farm manager was a very patient man! I left the school after passing two GCEs in agriculural science and rural biology - that set me on a path a career in agricultural related industry. I've been retired now for 7 years - I cherish those wonderful years.
