Actually, although some things are dearer than living in the South of England there are less "temptations" to spend money - fewer shops (OK I shop online sometimes), fewer restaurants, and other leisure pursuits that eat up the money!Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-80058303635297471182010-07-31T10:58:48.801+01:002010-07-31T10:58:48.801+01:00only if can afford to live on an island.

The coal will arrive in large sacks on wooden pallets and be craned onto the pier, then folk have to get it to their house themselves!Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-35716345594127289482010-07-28T12:16:05.802+01:002010-07-28T12:16:05.802+01:00it's hard to imagine that size lorry on your i...it's hard to imagine that size lorry on your island - they seem so out of place despite their obvious needKilliecrankie Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11306254588211569227noreply@blogger.com
