Rural idyll

Beneath his bed Lewis has a model farm - what started out as a few Britains cows and a tractor, has become his fantasy New Forest small holding complete with sic Range Rover. I captured this scene, complete with his Modelmakers Handbook in our kitchen, as his new farmhouse takes shape. He's been working on the hedges this morning, barely a day goes by without some minor modification!

On a loosely connected matter I note that our local MP Julian Lewis voted against the ludicrous proposal to sell off our forests - good to see some backbone in the face of ill considered plans.
