Back again, only briefly as I've got to go out and deliver some waste veg oil, our company no. 7955231, formed Feb 2012 so no accounts due until end of tax year, we are not connected to any other advertisers and I would not advise just paying money over the internet to someone you've never met.
Before we would accept anything other than small donations we would have to meet and establish that the core members would be able to work together having similar needs and aspirations, there will be a camping event organized through our page this September the hard part is getting the right group of people together, it would be easier to just finance through my family but we are trying to make it open to more people.
The exact direction the group takes would ofcourse be decided by the shareholders, but as managing director they benefit from my experiences in forestry and communal living, at present we are thinking of between 5 and 10 settlers with a "campsite" for visitors and guests. A detailed costing is being drawn up for a sample plot now, though the fine detail may be change to account for a different site or shareholders views.
The company currently trades in waste veg oil and offers gardening and land management services in the Scottish borders, that's how I make my living, the land purchase(as a communal action) will only happen if the right group can be brought together otherwise it will be done on more commercial basis and produce a big profit for a few people rather than the ideal of group action leading to a wider good.
I will get round to replying to all e-mails and posts but I'm very busy doing all this so be patient, traveling to near Dumfries tomorrow to look at a plot of land and collecting oil from Carnforth Cumbria too, always happy to meet new people for a chill and a chat, also traveling to Mid & south Wales over the week end.
