Absolutely love it. Just need to remember the bread and milk as it is a 10 mile trip into the nearest town  :shock: . There is a little village shop in a village 3 miles away. Can't beat just stepping out of the front door and being in fields. A walk round the block is a 4 mile walk along lanes bordering fields and the dogs can run free without a lead. We can go to bed having forgotten to take the car keys out of the car and can go for that walk round the block without locking the door.
OK, sorry to have bored you townies. I think I would have real difficulty living with a neighbour now. My neighbours are at least 100 yards away and we not only know our neighbours but everyone in the village (very small village, hamlet really).  

Sounds very similar to where I live but where 1/2 a mile to a realy small town (everyone knows each other) and then 3 miles from milk and bread e.t.c

Blight is carried by spores, these are washed out of the air by rain and can very easily get through fleece.

i think i'm going to spray this year. nothing more disappointing than a whole crop being ruined. i didnt spray last year and ended up buying my spuds from shops. gutting, and i dont fancy going through it again
