I'm quite happy with my lot, but to be truly happy winter would cease to exist, it would never snow ever again, the sun would shine every day and Christmas would be banned!

I know how lucky I am and reading these posts confirms it.
Only one thing I would wish for: to not have a fear of heights.
When we had our Motohome there were so many places we couldn't go because of it.

Flowerofthewest forget Walberswick, someone I know (I used to want to live there too) said she hated living there, it was like Stepford Wives because it was full of women whose husbands (including hers) all worked and lived in London during the week. She is an opera singer and was having a break while her 3 girls were young and at school. She said it was a dreadful shallow existence!

I would like the chance to own and sell a house in Walberswick

To lose weight without having to cut down on Cake

To pay off the mortgage, which has been static and interest only for some years

To buy my children a small house each

To have enough money to put my mother in a decent Home. She doesn't need one as yet, but she isn't going to be easy for anyone to look after.

To be rid of all aches and pains

To be taken away on holiday by private jet and chauffeur, with no worries about lost luggage or missed connections or car breakdowns. By myself. NO family, just lots of books and a private cottage on a beach with private pool and chef.

I don't ask for much.
