Bernie Webb pdf Rural Living Handbook

Ever wished your property came with a handbook or an instruction book explaining some of the more important differences between suburban living and living in a rural or semi-rural location? - Wondered if you were cut out to own and care for livestock and what your legal and moral obligations might be? - Considered purchasing a tractor or ride-on mower but have no idea what all the different features are for? - Need to purchase a chainsaw, but don't know what size is best? - What are the dangers (if any) of the additional wildlife you will come in contact with in a rural setting? These questions and many more have been answered in a friendly and informative approach by first time author Bernie Webb. Bernie and his wife Hazel moved to a special-rural area of Perth WA nearly 30 years ago, with virtually no inkling of the additional knowledge they would have to quickly acquire, to enable them to successfully adapt to their new rural environment. Bernie has run his small business, 'Redgum Rural Services' since 1994 and was an active member of the local 'Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade' for 25 years. This, together with firsthand involvement with his own special-rural property, has given him plenty of experience to draw from. Realising that most people making this move will also have the same problems to solve, Bernie has not only written but completely designed, edited and published this very practical and informative book. 'Rural Living HANDBOOK' is squarely aimed at people moving, or already moved from suburbia to a rural area. This book is liberally illustrated throughout with over 200 photographs (mostly taken by Bernie) as well as several explanatory tables and diagrams. Summarised in Bernie's own words; "...a book that I wish we could have referred to 30 years ago".
