It's been a while

Well folks, haven't written a post in a while, reason? Been too busy.  Not complaining, it's a great way to be.  Our first project went to planning this week and we are naturally very excited.  It will be interesting to see how it progresses but we are well prepared, this is something we've been aiming for for such a long time. I've spent the past two years trying to get Agrigrid off the ground and this is a tremendous milestone.  Of course there is still a long way to go, we know that, but to get a plant up and running will have been a very high mountain to conquer.

Things are going well with regard to queries for other plants too, I've been clocking up quite a few miles since harvest now that farmers have a bit more time to talk.  I would not be too surprised to get a flurry of planning applications going in to various local authorities in the new year.

A quick word of thanks to all those who have given us moral support to get this far, here on the blog, on twitter, Facebook and of course for me personally, from home, I would not have been able to keep it up without the fantastic encouragement from my wife and family, I really hope that I will be able to repay the faith and love that has been shown and that the wolves which have been at our door as they have been to many doors of many people in Ireland at the moment, can be given a good kick up the backside and banished forever.

One of the things I thought about the other day was keeping a photo journal of all the places I am visiting at the moment and posting them to this blog; I think it may make be interesting to document the growth and effort of building the company, let me know if you think its a good idea.

Anyway folks, I promise I'll post more often, thanks again for you support, see ya.
