Welcome to my new blog as I navigate life in the Welsh Marches

The start of my Home and Hearth blog...

Watch this space for updates as I move into my new house and start my rural life in a little village, a hamlet really, in the borderlands of Wales. I'll be living here, commuting to work in Oxford once a week, caring for my pets, reading books, drinking a lot of tea, making my opinions about the world known, cooking, baking, and most importantly of all, curling up by the fire.
