@RustyBertrand I dreamt about exactly that when I was younger. But there comes a time when you have to be "practical", i.e. moving to a lager house when you're having kids and then to a smaller house when they leave home. I sometimes wish I had just persisted becoming a writer in my own cozy cottage in Scotland, not too far from Edinburgh, and then have all sorts of maps on the wall between the bookshelves. But I love my kids - I wouldn't want to miss them for anything. @elala @bcham
