Our New Life in the Country: "Have You Packed Yet?"

Wednesday, 11 July 2012

"Have You Packed Yet?"

"Have you packed yet"...... eveyone asks me ...... NO is the answer.

I'm trying to get in the mind set honest.......but I have to aim for something between the picture above...

... and this!!

I like to travel light, very light so I do need to get planning at least.

Oh well, time for one more cup of coffee and then a trawl around Blogworld while I drink it and then I may start the planning, or maybe just the thinking about the planning .....or maybe by then it will be lunchtime ...... I will pack ....sometime before I go...I think!!

I like to be organised and pack days before hand. Then I start to think and second guess which is not a good idea so I end up with way too much. On the day I travel I usually have to call my sister who is the QUEEN of packing and travelling with ONLY hand luggage.

The holiday is always fantastic though, although it's been awhile since I've needed to know the weight of my luggage. Have a fantastic time!

Good luck and enjoy your holiday. I used to have a tiny suitcase like that with a sewing kit in it. Your pix makes me wish I still had it.

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.

Sue xx
