We always keep such thoughts to ourselves and wouldn't dream of being so bad-mannered as to air them to the vendors of any property we view.<br /><br />I thought I had got every cobweb, but was still horrified to see some more festoons when I was showing them round! <br /><br />Yup, hopes up a little but too exhausted to be excited . . .Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-60512638472343525362017-07-06T02:14:52.344-07:002017-07-06T02:14:52.344-07:00Thank you Tricia.

I particularly love the tables. I have nowhere here to put them though but you have given me an idea as to what to look out for in the future. Your posies are stunning too. Absolutely charming.

I must look it up. Glad you liked the flowers. It was just a shame they weren't here when our Paul's Himalayan Musk was out.

I think the farm puts some people off and others who have really fallen in love with it are just dreamers. The main problem is it's in Wales.
