'Mass exodus'

[Straight Shooter]

Yes your right BP , we have loads of people moving into wales ....and as a result prices are moving up, in particular small holdings ......people want a better more simple self sufficient lifestyle ....I cannot fault that at all ..but they fall by the wayside , dreamers , especially when they HAVE to work at the dream, its hard work , they soon realize what they have entered into ....after the honeymoon phase , they usually seek locals to HELP out ...or do the f..king work that is ..then enjoy the fruits of someone else's labours justified by the payment they make ....to me they miss the point completely their perception of the good life is, its great when someone else provides it......when I read posts from OUR mary for example it personifies the true essence of country life ....its called hard work and experience ...you can't fake it ( cause I know ) . There are days when I just sit and wonder , and just look all around and take in what I have done the past 30 odd years I have lived here ....and give thanks to the creator of all things that I can still thrust my hands into the soil of this place , and be at ONE with the whole beat of this place and share it with the one I love.... life is GOOD......cleanex tissues on the right .....vomiting buckets on the left .....
