Some Things I've Learned About The Shire After Living There For Five Days

1. It's a long way from the city. I've done many hours of driving this week. Did my first commute this morning. Long, but fairly painless. Only 15 minutes longer than before.
2. Strangers are friendly to you
3. It's a lot less 'culturally diverse' than where we've been
4. People love to drive right on you tail. It's their favourite hobby
5. There's a lot of birds
6. Reception for Channel 2 sucks.

Lol - we've had trouble getting channel 9!

I love the strangers friendliness aspect - although my kids were freaked out the first few weeks - after years of me training them not to talk to strangers!
