Woohoo! Nice to see someone else drowning their kids in books lol. My partner says I have made it my personal mission to make every child at toddler group into a reader as thats all I will give as gifts. My girls have come to expect three books for every toy they get lol. The chicken is very cute by the way.
An admirable mission i'd say Mu. When they get old enough to read seriously they'll have access to vast worlds non-readers will miss out on. And i bet you your childen read them. The chicken seems to be an important logo for childers. They're on everything now here, but i thought this was cute. ciao xxx
I'm an English ex-pat and together with my wife and two chldren (dog and five cats too) run a small B&B called La Vignassa in the foothills of the Italian alps in a place called Torre Pellice. The House, which dates from the early 1600s is tucked away in the woods at the end of a private gravel road so life is peaceful and unhurried.
I used to be a translator/teacher but thankfully managed to give it all up to learn a bit of building and do-up the house. This took me about 4 years and it was great fun. Now we are up and running i'm starting to sort out the two and a half acres of land which surround the house. I live in a lovely area and have a lovely family and a lovely house surrounded by lots of interesting people and places and as i love writing and particularly ranting it seemed a shame to keep it all for myself hence this blog.
