But this was a layout I wanted to do so I am happy to see it on paper. The culture shock of moving out here to the "country" has been very dramatic. Living in the city, we were always so surprised how quiet it was there and very often, we would look out of the window to see if anyone was on the streets because it was just too quiet. Sure we had some evenings where there were groups of people have a bit too much of a good time on the street below and the singing of the local pizzeria owner a few buildings away got a bit painful at times, but this is nothing compared to the noise here!
It's harvest time and we have watched (and most definitely heard) tractors and combine harvesters trundle past our flat at all times of the day and night over the last few weeks. As early as 5 or 6 and as late as 1.15 which is certainly something new. And the church bells... at least I hardly need a watch anymore!
And let's not talk about the rich, country smell that wafted over the village at the weekend...
Happy hump day.
this is lovely!
