I agree with you about village life - it gives a great sense of community and you seldom meet anyone on the street or in the stores without a smile being exchanged, even if you are not well acquainted.Hildredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420791064923078834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-8397743500246459792014-08-14T04:53:57.034-07:002014-08-14T04:53:57.034-07:00Call it what you will — Dales life, country life, ...Call it what you will — Dales life, country life, village life — I've come to agree with you that living in a small place with strong connections to both the land and the people is the best life indeed.

Like blogging!<br /><br />I remember back in the early 80s when I moved to a new small town/village I met one of the locals who said "drop by anytime". So I did. <br /><br />She laughed like mad and said it was a good job I'd not done that to anyone else. "If they really mean you to drop by around here they'll give you a time to turn up. Otherwise it's just a polite thing to say. They don't MEAN it." But she said she knew I'd take her up on it because I came from Yorkshire. (So did her dad originally.) So perhaps it's a Yorkshire thing. Down in the East Midlands (not saying which county) they tend not to want to know their neighbours.

It's quite tight knit which is nice.

Wherever I went people would say hello (using my name), I had no idea who they were, but they all knew my parents.

Perhaps I should find another 1988 "transplant."

It is so hard to remember to stop before the energy runs out.<br />I loved living in a village where everyone knew everyone. Sadly I left when I was 18 and never quite managed it again as we moved so often.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.com
