I love the open space, love mountains, not so sure about the cold though!

When we were looking around to buy the present house, been here nearly 9 years so it was 9.5 years ago, there was a piece of land going for building which seemed cheap for the £20,000 asking price in an uphill village near Lincoln where there are stone cottages in the village centre (always more valuable). It was a narrow strip at the side of someone's bungalow, their lawn! there was only enough space to build a house lengthways with little surrounding. I haven't looked lately, but just about every piece of land around the outskirts of Lincoln is being built on, mostly large 4 bedroom two story houses with postage stamp gardens. House prices have trebled or more since we bought, land being one of the reasons but also the movement of people from more expensive areas.

Steve if you missed some of my pics, here's one I really like I took in September when the sun was shining through the shadows and some misty morning air clearing. The new bed is behind that one.
