It washes over me, Rog! I avoid big shops and crowds of people, avoid all the hoo hah

I will be travelling to London on Thursday as going to a gig with a friend, but it's only an overnighter....otherwise I just stick to the remote bits I live in, the woods and fields, animals and birds. Those are the things that are real.

Will you put any tins etc in collection boxes for food banks?

I've been doing it for a long time, Twass and a little doggy one as well for Dog's Trust.
Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco all have boxes for the food banks up here and have had for a long time, Twass. Sad reflection of the way our country is now


What do you do to relax ?

Now there's a conundrum....I guess I just live my life the way I live it. I generally feel relaxed to be honest. Am I unusual in that do you think?

Not really, don't mind me, but some people really take the biscuit (not you)




Is Christmas all about keeping up with the Jones's? it certainly seems like that.

I guess for a lot of folks it is, quite what pleasure there is in that defeats me

Are you very glad not to be throwing a christmas party?

Yes, the fields around me are full of pregnant ewes, I can't wait for all the little lambs! Apparently some have already been born in other parts of the country

Snowdrops or crocuses?

Yes, quite a few are, and the leaves of forget-me-nots as well....but this happened last year too and everything bloomed at its right time.

Do you do much gardening at this time of year? I still have much tidying to do.

Apart from a few frosty days, there hasn't been any winter yet....nor it is looking like a white Christmas.

Will Winter come in January?

Actually, I believe that February is the worst month for snow and cold.

Have you a good supply of salt?

Do you keep emergency supplies in case of a fierce winter?

Would be hard-pressed to to find £9.50 , let alone £950! So I guess the answer to that is ...no!


Would you have a spare £950 to buy a nice pair of leather trews with?????

No It's rent day today, my account will be totally rinsed

I've never worn a pair of leather trousers, how on earth do you clean them?
