Ferryhill For the first 6 months I was staying in Eppleby, well done if you can place that dot on the map. I must say that a village that small felt very closed off and it wasn't until moving into Darlo that I felt that I meet 'real' people.

Got to admit, I had to check the map for Eppleby! It looks tiny, I can imagine that feeling very isolating! I'm still not sure I could refer to the residents of Darlo as "real" people, j/k ๐Ÿ˜† I hope your subsequent years in the UK have been more pleasant :)
