Muddy Matches
Do you want to earn £150?
In 2006, Muddy Matches co-founders Emma and Lucy were planning the launch of their new website and roped in a group of their friends to take part in a countryside photo shoot. We all had a fantastic day, and many laughs, mucking about on a farm for different shots and it was from this that we got the photos that you will see on the website today.
Six years later, however, we feel that it is time to freshen up the site and, since we were all in our 20s then, to hopefully better represent the broad age range of people who use Muddy Matches…and this is where you come in!
On Saturday 7th July 2012, we are planning another countryside photo shoot in Northamptonshire and are looking for fun and outgoing muddy people of all ages to take part. We are not looking for Britain’s next top model, just nice normal-looking people who aren’t afraid of a camera – we’ll all be making wallies of ourselves posing for pictures and you’ll need to enter into the spirit of things!
Everyone selected will be paid £150 plus travel and we’re sure you’ll have a lot of fun at the shoot so, if you are interested in taking part, please read on for more details and instructions on how to apply. Also, please do tell any of your muddy friends who are up for a laugh and interested in earning a few quid – you don’t need to be registered on Muddy Matches to take part. › Continue reading
Women In Rural Enterprise
When Lucy said that we were going to a conference my first thought was to pre-load with caffeine in preparation for endless PowerPoint presentations, but Women in Rural Enterprise doesn’t do things that way! Even upon entry we could sense the buzz in the room.

Check Out the New ‘Who’s Going?’ Feature
We are lucky in the UK and Ireland to have some great country shows and rural events, and for a while now we have been trying to list as many of them as possible on our Country Calendar. With so many like-minded people going to these events, it dawned on us that they should be excellent places to meet other single people who share our love of the countryside and all things muddy, but somehow for most of us it rarely seems to work out like that. Our aim at Muddy Matches has always been about changing the way we meet new people in the countryside and so we put our heads together to see if there was anything we can do about this. As a result, we came up with the idea for our new ‘Who’s Going?’ feature to help you find which other members like going to the same shows and events as you, and potentially find new people to go to the events with or arrange to meet up with while you are there. Plans are also afoot for an exciting new feature that will also help you meet new people when you are actually at an event, so watch this space about that one!
