For the third year running I'm taking part in A Buyer's Archive inspired by Elise, to keep track of my spending on clothes and accessories. THIS YEAR Once again all of this month's purchases are pre-loved, and all of them will be in my August capsule. Fat Face denim shorts £4.25 I actually purchased these last month but forgot to include them in...
People are often intrigued by the life of a farmer, I think it has something to do with being at one with nature, working outside, a sort of hunter-gather type thing.

The first weekend in June was Andy's birthday. He still went to work on the Saturday, so I spent the day pottering. In the evening we went to his parent's for a steak dinner and a birthday chocolate cheesecake. On Sunday our plan was to drive into town to find a birthday present for his Mum and have a pub lunch on the...
