On the 26th March 1991, I was being driven to my Gran's house to endure some no doubt badly cooked chicken. It was a chilly day, and I'd wrapped-up warm in a sweater she'd knitted for me the Christmas before - I would not be wearing it again. The man driving the car was telling me about his football team, and being Man Utd, I pitied him, I really did. I just had a constant urge to peer out of the window, so I did.
And that's when I saw it; A large house, beautifully made, and seemingly bustling with life. There was a sign I could just make out saying "Pub", which is amazing because that's where my family had spent most of their lives, and there was a person looking through the window how looked a little like me, just a bit happier and swaying more. A day or so later, I went to the pub, and now I go there far too much, waving to all the cars that pass because I'm drunk and they look funny! Thank you for the miracle of booze! |

I`m sorry, although sounds really sweet, you`ve got to count your blessings that you could afford the Manor in the first place, thats what I`ld say is a miracle this day and age!!!
Seriously, though you saw the Manor for sale and you seized the opportunity to buy it, well done for being ambitious. ![]() |
