Hello and welcome to our little part of cyberspace! I'm Viki and live with my husband, best friend and personal chef Paul at the top of the Elham Valley! Our friends refer to us as Tom and Barbara, because we're basically trying to live The Good Life! We run a business called Valley Crafts UK selling our own handmade and handpainted thingymabobs on Etsy - www.valleycraftsuk.com
We are owned by two cats and have a random number of chickens - including some of our neighbour's birds which tend to pop by from time to time... Paul can mostly be found in his workshop creating wondrous things out of wood, like chicken arks and cat houses, or in the kitchen making delicious fudge and chutneys. I spend most of my time in the office/craft room where I knit, crochet, attempt to learn to sew, and paint traditional canalia (that's "roses and castles" style painting).
We grow our own veg, brew our own beers and wines, make chutney, eat free-range eggs from our own chickens and are a hybrid of country bumpkins and cool hippies with some boho chic thrown in for good measure.
Where Are We?

Well, I’ve bitten the bullet and transferred to Posterous… I hope this works. I’m trying to import my Tumblr blog but so far unsuccessful. I’ll give it another go later. I’ve committed social suicide by linking the two but, frankly, I don’t care. If the Tumblr app worked properly on my phone I’d stick with it but the fact is they haven’t updated it and everyone who has installed it on Blackberry has had issues. I can’t tag posts anymore which is a real shame, and sometimes it won’t let me upload photos. If I can’t import my old posts here I might give Tumblr another go but I like the idea of just being able to drop an email to Posterous to do my posts, so we’ll see how it goes! Gardening day today so I’ll catch up with blogging later or over the weekend. Have a good one!
