David owns a small farm outside of Hexham in Northumberland where he raises sheep and other livestock. As the farm does not provide enough income on its own, David also works part time as a computer programmer and his wife manages their holiday rental cottage. David's responsibilities on the farm vary with the seasons, requiring frequent checks on the animals for things like lambing season. He works on the farm from 7:30am to 4pm each day and also fits in his computer programming work in the evenings.
