Help, I'm Trapped in a City

Hello, my name's Adam and I've been exiled from the countryside.

Let me explain. I'm not, unlike Caroline or Tim, an employee of Farmers Weekly. In fact, I work for the magazine's parent company as their head of blogging. And like so many people in the media business, I find myself shackled to the city. But I'm not a city boy at heart. In fact, as I hit my middle late-30s, I find myself craving to go back.

I grew up in rural Scotland, you see, in a two pub, three church kinda of a town. And then I ended up moving south. And I ended up swapping this:

Dollar and the Forth Valley from Castle Campbell
For this:

A Lewisham Back Garden
You can understand, perhaps, why I'm so keen to get back to the countryside...

And so, until my wife and I manage to get our act together and relocate ourselves back to the countryside, I live vicariously through the posts of the legion of rural bloggers out there, and I'll be sharing some of that with you over the week.

And I won't be posting any pictures of dogs in mini-skirts, promise.
