'Life with the Ladies of Low Arvie' is the sequel to Linda Watson's
first book 'The Ladies of Low Arvie' and continues the story of her
farming life in Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland. 'The
Ladies' are the herd of Black Galloway cows bought by Linda and her
partner, Richard, to inhabit their 120 acres of wet and boggy land.
Their life, though exciting, is full of twists and turns and the
couple have met many challenges to be overcome along the road to
creating their successful business. They have struggled with these
challenges at times but have always won through, aided in no small
part by the kindness of new friends and farming neighbours.
The farm is set in the most beautiful of Scottish settings and
they count ourselves truly fortunate to have spent the autumn of
their lives in such peace and tranquility. The problems that they
have faced and overcome through these years have always been
tempered by the quiet beauty that surrounds them in their home. The
hardships are many but the rewards are great and the sight of a
batch of new calves gamboling around their mothers in their fields
each autumn repays them a hundred fold for their efforts and makes
the work load an easy one to bear.
Alongside farming life, Linda has found the time to fulfil a
second lifelong dream to gain a University degree and the story of
her four years of study, whilst also fulfilling her filial duties
to her 90 year old mother, is interwoven into the tales of
agricultural life.
'The Ladies of Low Arvie' was well received by a wide cross
section of society and many readers requested this sequel to update
the story and to hear of the way that life has continued at Low
Arvie.
