  • Peaceful Farm Living: My Ideal Home

    The ideal home for me is a peaceful farm surrounded by nature. While it had its drawbacks like power cuts and a leaky roof, its isolation had both positive and negative aspects. Getting my motorbike and car license made life there more convenient. Photos of my home provide a better understanding of what it means…

    Why did you start blogging? It was a cold depressing day in north Wales. This was back in 1998, the days of the dialup, Napster and all the good stuff before society got in the way.
