Wish me luck!!!!

[Ben Brand]

Starting a new job, the 1st of July. New job is not the problem, but at my age????? But the saying is " You are never to old to start again"
Suppose it`s a better job, better salary and better benefits ect, bigger town (so the Buffalo swatter ( thanks webmost, you inspired me for that one) can shop at more shops, spend more money) that`s not the problem its the moving, hate moving. I have to get 3 dogs and 7 cats to move with me 200km.
One little silver lining to the dark cloud is, that I`m moving to a much better tobacco growing area. I am renting a house on a vegetable farm, must just convince the farmer to let me plant my 160+ plants somewhere, will be even better if he smokes, slip him a few of my cigars to help me persuade him!!! WISH ME LUCK on my new endeavour!!!!

Moving is a lot of work, but exciting too. Hope all goes well.

Also hope the wage increase is enough to offset for Her increased spending.

200 kilometres is almost nothing for the people living in the US.
Farmers are generally curious about new things, I hope he shows you a plot to grow some.
Good luck Ben, you'll need this ! I hope you'll be good there. A rolling stone gathers no moss.

But...but the kudu? How will the kudu find your tobacco?

Very true. I have colleagues who commute farther than that.

What's the new job?

im sure the farmer will give you a area...

but whats better is if he will let you use one of his tractors to harrow your new spot with.

id love to have a tractor in my yard for a day....[ during the off season of course ]

Having a tractor is like growing tobacco, addictive.

Like eating potato chips, you gotta have more than one
