Because our family is expanding, we are moving from our sunny apartment in central London to a beautiful old farm house outside the city, which is only half an hour’s drive away from the centre of London where we live. In fact it is Frances’ parent’s house where she grew up. It will give us plenty of space and a lovely garden surrounded by woods and fields, yet still be so close to London with all its amenities and lots of our friends.

Frances’s parents are downsizing and moving to a cottage next door which they are currently renovating. It will be incredibly convenient to have grandpa and grandma next door, with a garden and pool for children to play in. We often invite friends out to Frances’ parents house for barbeques, swimming and tennis, and all the children love running round exploring the garden and fields, and playing in the pool – things will continue that way once we move in!
