Ben seems to follow a similar lifestyle, either wandering the world filming various programmes, or also taking on punishing challenges. The programmes by the way are very interesting, although there have been a couple in the past whereby I have questioned how genuine the people were.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-13744856848285539012019-04-24T01:38:05.130-07:002019-04-24T01:38:05.130-07:00Thanks for your comments.

It is a programme I really enjoy because it takes a lot of courage to do what she has done. I certainly dare not do it.

They have a permanent mooring with various site facilities but can cast off a chug along the canal and moor up where ever there is the opportunity. I visited them over the weekend and it was idyllic and so peaceful. They do emerge to take part in the hurly burly of modern life from time to time, only to retreat once more to live surrounded by nature.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-28135592184694435632019-04-23T11:49:41.812-07:002019-04-23T11:49:41.812-07:00I think Ben Fogle's visitee tonight is a woman...I think Ben Fogle's visitee tonight is a woman who has gone and set up an artists' retreat in a desert - as you do!
