Did you think the BBC program "how to live a simple life" was disappointing, or you were disappointed that there were only 3 episodes? I can't check it out on Netflix and I can't seem to find the show to watch on the internet either. Glad you enjoyed some nice days on your farm. Hope you get over your cold very soon.

You pick and choose your 'mod cons' that are and will be meaningful to your simple life. <br /><br />Perhaps it's because I work in a university surrounded by young people, but I am lucky that I don't have that experience Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826144253232267217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3375887793985280500.post-45189992915670681002011-04-22T04:24:45.781+02:002011-04-22T04:24:45.781+02:00I enjoyed reading this post, thank you for sharing...I enjoyed reading this post, thank you for sharing your thoughts...wish we were neighbors as the way you think is so very similar to that of my wife and I.

We swap produce with family, friends and neighbours and we don't keep tabs on who gave us what. When they have an excess item they will share it around too :). Everyone helps with fencing, sending animals to market etc and many cups of beverages and plates of biscuits/cakes are shared over discussions about farm stuff.
