About me

Gender Female
Occupation Protector of the public, washer of dishes, ironer of clothes and accidental author
Location Wiltshire, United Kingdom
Introduction OK, I'll fess up. When I started this blog I lived at River Cottage, a little small holding in the beautiful Wylye Valley but then I moved. So now I live in a beautiful little village in the same valley with my two gorgeous, funny, intelligent children, The Boy, 18 and The Girl, 16. They were clearly swapped at birth and must spend all their waking hours wondering who their real parents are. I've followed no discernable career path, having worked in publishing, the arts, Slebrity PR and as an airstewardess in the Middle East (see what I mean!). I've lived abroad for many years most recently in France. I now work in child protection for our local authority in between raising Orpington hens, writing my next book and pretending to be self-sufficient. I am proudly a single mother
Interests My pet likes are rural affairs, my book club, my friends and, yes, you read it here, the WI. Don't laugh... it's a fantastic organisation. My pet hates are certain Francophile forums, nasty vile places. Keep away! And the Slebrity Culture that is taking over the world - I mean, they're just people like the rest of us
Favorite Movies Steel Magnolias, Sophie's Choice, The Killing Fields - hmmm, depressing choices....
