I agree Honeybun.  The UK has always been populated by in-comers, way back to the Normans  ::) - 1066 and All That!

I have never had problems fitting in 'cos I'm nosy  ;D

'Big Money' from outside has bought and changed three farms i can think of around here - become land owning private properties rather the farms they were bought as. I can understand some local resentment - on the other hand these old buildings are now renovated and maintained and have a future life - it was interesting to watch one being newly thatched last summer.

It's lovely to know that some of the crafts are being continued.  A cottage was thatched in our village this Summer, should last at least 25 years.

I would love to finish my days with a view  :P
