Off to the Car Boot Sale.....

Off to the Car Boot Sale in the next village, this is a Google picture but it's exactly the same layout as ours, with sellers on one side of the field and a huge car park area on the other.

Time to set off for an hour or so all to myself wandering and browsing other peoples stalls for once, we decided not to do one ourselves this weekend as we are both exhausted and not on top form, so it's a well earned day off for us.

What will I find to buy in this 'Year of Living Simply'.......

... I'll let you know tomorrow.

Enjoy your day, I hope the sun shining on you too, it's still glorious here with temperatures over 27 degrees yesterday, we have to make the most of it Winter is just around the corner!!

I must sort out doing a car boot sale myself, we have so much STUFF and it is gradually taking over.

This was my Blog, just me writing about our day to day life learning all about and then living the smallholding life. First we started on a farm in Oxfordshire, then we moved to a smaller place in Berkshire (both in England) and then we found a place of our very own at the bottom of a hillside in North Wales. Along for the ride were all our various animals, and we ended up with just our dogs, Suky and Mavis, our cat Ginger .... who secretly thinks he's one of the canine gang, a sheep called Ethel who wandered in off the road and stayed... and a roving band of egg laying chickens that live cheek by jowl with the local wildlife.

We grow our own fruit and vegetables, selling surplus plants and edibles at the gate. We sell the eggs the chickens lay, we reuse, recycle and rethink ... and life ticks over at a pace that suits us.

It was simply the wild and wacky ramblings of a 50 something townie turned country girl called Sue, who lost her heart to a sailor and started a new life in the country .... many years ago. On a path that took us from Cumbria to Oxfordshire, to Berkshire and then we found our home at the bottom of a wet and windy Welsh hillside by a busy main road.

Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and relax into a world of dogs, cats, chickens, polytunnels and veggies with the occasional grass munching sheep thrown in for good measure.

Our New Life in the Country is my blog.

I use it to chart the day by day, week by week, year by year goings on in mine and Lovely Hubby's life. In it I also express my views and opinions, and say what I do and occasionally how I do it. I am hoping that this will prove to be a useful reminder for myself of how we did things, as we continue in our learning process.

If you chose to follow my practices it is assumed that you will do so with care and consideration, and question where necessary any methods or techniques I use to your own satisfaction and match them to your own circumstances.
