But now 2007 is drawing to a close. Changes are afoot and 2008 is to be a year of "new beginnings".
As you may recall, I mentioned recently that I had made a huge decision. You will also have seen some shots of Dairy House Antiques which I posted earlier this month. Dairy House is an antiques centre/shop currently home to 10 dealers (soon to be more). From April 2008 it will be under new ownership. This may sound a long way off but, believe me, it will arrive quicker than we think.
Have you guessed yet?
Yes ... it's me!!!
As of 6 April the new proprietor of Dairy House Antiques, Semley, near Shaftesbury will be Mrs S M Meager ... and she very much hopes you will all be with her every step of the way. She will be very much in need of tea, sympathy, pats on the back, a stiff G&T at regular intervals, chocolate (equally frequently), knock-out drops, encouragement and, above all, someone to say "you're doing the right thing". Do you fancy coming along for the ride? She does hope so! (And I promise I will write no more than one post per week which begins with the expletive "Aaaaaaaaargh!!!") Wish me luck!
And to you
Dear Readers
I wish ...
the best of good fortune ...
the happiest of years ...
the energy to continue to write your wonderful posts ...
and health and prosperity throughout the coming year!
Happy New Year
to One and All

Best New Year Wishes to you,

Hi Sue,
You are of course 'doing the right thing'!!
I know that you will make Dairy House a great success - you are such a hard worker and deserve the rewards it is sure to bring...
So cheers (with a G&T!) a HUGE hug and best wishes from me to your future success.
I hope to become a regular visitor to the centre, as one of my New Year Resolutions is to do more for 'me'!!
Happy New Year to You and Pauly,
Love Niki xx
Wa HAY!!! I wish you great success too and lots of chocolate:))))

Congratulations on your purchase, Sue, and on making the right decision! So now you're entering the world of big business. You're becoming an entrepreneur, an efficient businesswoman, by taking on this new exciting venture. I wish you many successes and I will definitely drop in to visit if I'm in the area! WOOHOO! This is so exciting!
Hi Sue
As this was in your cards this was THE decision to make.
Good Luck for Dairy House and make it your own.
I am very proud of you and you have come a long way, not taking any setbacks and moving forward in a focused way.
To everyone else - I can now have my bed back for my stop overs!!!!
Love Gillie xxxxx
Hi Sue
The very best of luck in your new venture - although I'm pretty sure your hard work and positive approach will ensure it's a success!
I look forward to visiting the centre once it's under new management!!
Happy New Year to you and Pauley!

Dear Sue, I do wish you every luck :-) I really will try to pop over some time and see you (and buy something of course)and I will try to remember the chocolate :-). How exciting for you! All the very very best! Happy new year to you :-)
Hi there - Lovely to a have new visitor. Funny that my Milly looks so much like your dear girl.
Many years ago we had a collie cross who was very unusual in colouring and she lived a good old age. When we moved up here nearly 10 years ago we found there was a dog living in the town who was her double! Strange when she had been so singular!
Sounds like you have a great new venture to look forward to in the Spring. Good luck with that and a happy new year.
What exciting news! I hope 2008 goes well for you, and I shall try to make a visit to Semley, looks beautiful! Good luck, Jennifer
And to you too Sue - Happy and Prosperous 2008
Happy New Year Sue. That is THE most exciting news ever. I wish you all the luck in the world :-)
Woweeeee - good for you - I am sure you will make a success of it. 2008 is going to be a very busy and exciting year. Sincere congratulations
Hiya Sue, if Niki is bringing the G&T's, I will bring the chocolate! I think it is the perfect job for you (and hubby too)and we, of course, will be backing you up all the way! How exciting!
Hi Sue,
Thank you very much for your visit. I wish you lots and lots of success in 2008. I will be looking forward to coming back and read about your ventures.
Take care.

Well I know I've already told you I think this is a very exciting project but I'll say it again! I know it's going to be a huge success and I am definitely going to have a day trip down there in the summer for a good look around. Really looking forward to hearing how it all progresses. A very very happy and successful 2008 to you and thank you so much for your friendship and support during the hard times of 2007. x
How exciting. I hope to visit Somerset this year in my search for somewhere to move to and will of course call in at the Dairy House will of course bring a supply of chocolate. Congratulations and lot of luck.
Chocolate? I think yu deserve champagne to celebrate such a wonderful and exciting start to 2008! Wishing you the very best of luck with this new venture and of course a happy New Year to you and your family.
