Week 1

Apart from the obvious of unpacking and getting settled in the new house, in our first week here highlights include attending a wedding just down the road, baking bread and checking out one of the local restaurants. Oh and being without a buggy for the best part of a week! So I haven't been able to explore too far just yet but there has been plenty of boring things to do at home. I am pleased to say the slight unease that I first felt at living in a rather rural village has faded. Now I just feel like we live in a lovely village that has everything you need and we have to drive to get to other lovely places. Which then brings me to my next must do - learn to drive!!! I cannot believe I can get to the age of 30 and not drive. I think the best part of being here has been using the garden, whether it be playing with my little boy, putting out washing or sitting with a glass of wine on a sunny evening. I love it.
PS. The spiders and wasps are still everywhere!

  1. Welcome to my favourite county, not that I'm biased!!

    If it's any consolation I'm 35 and still cannot drive yet. It's a long story but I won't be able to learn for another 2-3 years. Thank goodness for public transport, that's all I can say!

  2. Thanks, it is beautiful - if a little rainy today!

    I looked at a bus timetable yesterday and saw that the bus comes every 2 hours! That's gonna take some getting used to!

    Hopefully meet up soon x
