This is how I ended up here on a farm…..I used to 
be an executive for a firm that sold high tech equipment……
 







I had been driving for hours and had been to one of our 
suppliers on the coast of Wales, I finished off my business and was driving home 
late one night. The weather was really bad, with rain lashing down on the car. 
then my car just stopped in the middle of nowhere,  of course I could not get a 
phone signal so the only thing I could do was walk….I had seem a farm house 
a mile or so back….






I knocked on a door and a guy in his 50’s stood 
there, very grumpy that he had been disturbed, he was dressed in turned down 
Wellington boots and was wearing some sort of protective trousers. I explained 
that my car had broken down a few miles back. I asked to use his phone, to which 
he said it had been out of use for a few days, and was waiting for it to be fixed.



Well you had better come in then son, as you will 
not be going anywhere tonight. I was soaked from head too foot. he said I needed 
to get out of my wet clothes and told me there were some clothes I could put on 
I the other room. I took off all my clothes. and pulled on the trousers they 
were made of some sort of rubber, just like the other man was wearing, pulled on 
the turned down rubber boots and a green jacket. 







I went back into the other room where the older man was 
waiting for me with a drink,  The warmth of the fire and drink soon had me 
falling asleep…..






Dad woke me up the next morning to told me I have a 
few jobs to do on the farm, I do love living on the farm here with just my 
Dad……
