                      A big farmgirl hug to all of you from UK. You have joined a wonderful group of women. I feel so supported here and I learn so much here. I look forward to learning about all things "across the pond."    My local bookstore has a few British magazines and I have fallen in love with "The Simple Things." It has only been available for a few months and it is expensive here, but I get my money's worth. I read it cover to cover and I enjoy the "British" traditions, words and projects in it. It's " sort of " American but it really isn't. When I am done reading it, I tear it all up for the recipes and crafts and interesting stories.   I have never been to your country but my daughter has and she loved the Cotswalds ( spelling?) the best and Avon. She especially loved the sheep.   Anyway, a welcome sent from warm, sunny Gulf Coast of Florida.  Joey

                      Hi Joey
  I have looked at 'The Simple Things' - its a new magazine and hasn't been around long and its very very expensive in comparison to others like it even over here.
  Your comments made me smile as i feel like that about MaryJanesFarm magazine (and the forums!!!!)... Its sort of 'British' but really isn't and I find things that relate totally to my life and other bits that I find very alien!!!
  But thats what adds to the fun in life!!!
