Fantasy

I am tired and jaded today,which is probably a combination of a late night, several turkey wrestling matches and a busy day of chores. I have dozed on the couch all this evening (dribbling and snoring too!) and have not caught up with phone calls and friends gossip as I should have done!
As I was dozing I dreamt about my fantasy property! We saw it when we were looking for a cottage four years ago, and although it was not for sale at the time, the slightly jaded Victorian cottage set in its own grounds always caught my eye.
Now it is up for sale.....a four bedroom cottage with out buildings, a walled garden, orchard and an additional 3 bedroom adjoining workers cottage all set in 11 acres of land.
The cottage has been untouched and unspoilt by the horrors of new money, and so the sash windows are intact and the period features still on show......tired and dirty to be sure yet proud and quite magnificent!
ok the whole place is for sale for over half a million quid.....but for a couple of long minutes ,as I was snoring my best on the couch.....I dreamt of collecting apples from the orchard as my chickens watched
hey ho

  7. Thats stunning, I've got an idea, I could chip in the contents of my penny jar (about 75p) and I could live in the little cottage, lol.

    Nice idea but probably not very realistic. xxx
