A Country Life for Half the Price.

Anyone watching?

Yes, enjoying it but haven't seen this weeks episode yet. I'd love to throw it all in but I don't think I'd be happy living very rurally.

I'm watching the second episode now but will watch the first one on catch up

What’s it on? I’ve never heard of that.

Channel 5

The large family - they seemed to have really taken to rural life. I am strictly a townie but it suited them.

I watched half of the last family, but for some reason didn’t see it all.

I was curious how they could afford such a large house at such a young age. I knew straight from seeing the couple they’d be home schooling. That made me question what he did to be able to afford the mortgage, food, bills etc. (I think he said something about blogging/blogging, but wasn’t sure).

I presumed when they moved they had made enough money on their house to be mortgage free in the new place.

I got the impression they married young bought the house in London area (I can't remember where it was) and do sold it with a decent profit. And bought the cheaper rural property in Shropshire. I'm assuming they still had a mortgage of some sort and the husband works from home. So they still has an income.
As soon as I saw her headscarf I guessed they would be religious and were home schooling.

I wonder how this weeks couple are doing now CV has hit? Also not sure I like the idea of keeping the savannah cat outside to breed like that.

This is one of those programmes that I only half watch, but I didn't understand about the cats. Were they going to be outside like that all the time? Didn't seem quite right (don't know anything about the breed though), it was like an aviary and looked like it would be freezing and miserable to be couped up all the time.
