Why did the man go to live in the country? [br]
Interviewer: Right then, Roger, what made you take off to the country in the first place?
Roger: Well, I suppose any one who moves to the country wants their life to be different in some way. I mean, if you have always lived in a city, as I had, then something must happen to make you want to move.

Interviewer: That’s pretty ambitious, a townie moving off to the depths of the country and setting up his own business. How did you start, had you got any skills?
Roger: I’d always had a garden and grown some vegetables and flowers, you know, usual things, salad stuff, carrots, peas, beans, a bit of fruit, some roses.., so I thought of a small holding, a kind of small farm. But when I looked at the prices to buy, I changed my mind; I didn’t have that kind of money.
