The Laird owns everything! We own nothing! Just we been here and know what we are doing. If the Laird wants we are out of here! @updown2020

No. I never heard of it. @Platoscave

@LiliMaiJones Excerpt:

"...abundance of such foods, and even the poor enjoyed a rough plenty.'
The last words are true of the hamlet of Lark Rise. Because they were still an organic community, subsisting on the food, however scanty and monotonous, they raised themselves, they enjoyed good health and so, in spite of grinding poverty, no money to spend on amusements and hardly any for necessities, happiness. They still sang out-of-doors and kept May Day and Harvest Home. The songs were travesties of the traditional ones, but their blurred echoes and the remnants of the old salty country speech had not yet died and left the fields to their modern silence. The songs came from their own lips, not out of a box..."

(from Flora Thompson "Lark Rise at Candleford")

I had no idea. We don’t have much money. But everyone works hard. And we have enough. Even to send me to college. I do the cooking. It is just plain food and we dress plain. But we have so much fun. You wouldn’t believe the high jinks that go on on this farm! @Platoscave

That ain’t so bad. I read a novel when I go to bed until I fall asleep. I can’t remember the last time I read past the second page. @smileylovesgaming

Cows drink a lot. When they are coming in from the fields for milking there is a spring by the road. And they stop to drink. There is water I; the fields too. We don’t have buffalo. I think buffalo would not survive here. @SW-User

What did I do? @LiliMaiJones
