I haven't vanished into the fogs of time or missed your constant support & encouragement. I am dealing now with three biggies, which, hopefully, once done, will allow me to come back & see you all & thank you all & do all I can to repay this marvellous friendship that warms my heart day after day.🤗

From the archives: The English Manor Part 1: The Land. Apparently the average manor contained one village and was separated from the next manor by a broad stretch of woods or wasteland. Sometimes two manors split the same village in two. buff.ly/3Dw5TSb
