Meet some of our neighbours in Bramshaw, Hampshire

What a lovely, rural setting we are in. We are now in a little cottage converted from an old dairy, next to the main farm house in Bramshaw in the New Forest, surrounded by green fields and woodland. We arrived on Saturday after an uneventful drive from Oxford. Much better than the nightmare trip from Lincolnshire on Friday, but that tale is better left untold. Our hosts are Andrea, her husband Ian and their son Fergus who is about to set off on a working holiday to America and Australia.
We went to Mass this morning in a little church in Lyndhurst. They even had a cuppa after Mass which felt just like home, everyone was welcoming and chatty. Lex took me to the historic Bell Inn down the road to celebrate our anniversary - yummy lunch. It is quite chilly today around 15° so we are having a lazy day just enjoyng the sights andsounds of our surroundings. This part of England is rolling green pastures and wooded areas.
