The Covid Refugees

[MaryN]

I am sure that the proliferation of such tv programmes as "Escape to the Country" and such paint a completely false view of country life. I have seen a few of the newbies here in their spotless cars - why do they all chose 4x4s when they have no need for them!! - driving (at speed) along the country lanes. No wonder so many end up in the dykes. I potter about in my filthy old Landrover; but we need it for towing and anything we have to do in the field. Got to say I am bored witless by the constant whining about mud; chickens on the road; barking dogs; farm machinery, and even more ridiculous, the lack of anything to do! You have to be joking! 24 hours is barely enough in the day to deal with what we have to do. Even more ridiculous, these people buy enormous houses with tiny pocket handkerchief gardens. You could not grow a row of beans in some of the gardens, so what is the point? These idiots really tick me off!

There you go, whine over!
