Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Any one watch it? I used to work with Alison, the curate - always knew working for our company would turn you to religion or alcahol (Alison and I strongly practice both ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I missed it this week But we are planning to visit Boscastle in may, & are really looking forward to it Mel, where in Dorset are you? My Nan lives in Bridport........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 Not far from Poole/Bournemouth area I love the Bridport area - we would love to live down that way, but as I work near Portsmouth it would take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours to drive to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 My cousin is in Cranborne and my friend lives in Edmondsham in a picture postcard thatched cottage! My aunt's also down there in Barton on Sea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 ooh, does your friend want to swap her cottage for a rather super bungalow Dorset is a GREAT place to live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 ooh, does your friend want to swap her cottage for a rather super bungalow Dorset is a GREAT place to live It's gorgeous Mel but I think it's a bit wee! Loads of land and a stream but only a couple of bedrooms. Idyllic if a bit compact . I'd swap tomorrow if I could and squish the boys into the barn outside instead!!

Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 Sounds FAB!!! exactly what I want - there are only the two of us and hey, who wants a huge house to clean. We are selling our house and looking to move and the important thing is the land - tell your friend to give me first refusal if she ever wants to sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Blue Sky Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Mel did you look at Hope Lodge Farm at Horton Heath? Me and Mr Blue Sky have nearly licked all the ink off the photo... about 4 acres... It was in Dorset Society posh-o mag that comes through the door.

Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 Probably way out of our price range Try not to look at any details unless we have someone round to look at our house - otherwise we just get into a false hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 My friend spent quite a few years living in a caravan while she and her LSH did up the cottage virtually from scratch so I don't think she'd sell up just yet! It is gorgeous though - totally yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 We will end up living down by you I should think Mel. Unless we win Euro Millions tonight, then it is straight off to Monaco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Blue Sky Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Although it was in posh-o mag it looks like it needs a lot of work. Maybe a caravan in the garden job. Cob barns and a stream too. And near you. Go and look! Tell me all about it! HX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
