15 years...

Since I handed back the keys to my company car, gave up the monthly salary and pension, and moved north from Stirling with my wife, two young kids, two cats, a dog, a Triumph caff racer, a series one landy and an MGB

I have walked by the top of our field on the way down to the shop most days since then.. I dont often stop to look at the view!!
