If you live in my area with the five separate valleys in a star formation, you will notice how many house are built on the side of these valleys. The houses are difficult to get to with very narrow streets only just the width of a single vehicle.
Not so long ago in one of these valleys it was very difficult to reach some of the homes so deliveries were made by donkeys and these became well known. Today some donkeys have been reintroduced and you can get your shopping order this way.
Needless to say the views from these cottages and house are wonderful, but you have to be pretty fit to reach them as well. Luckily my village is on a plateau halfway up a hill, otherwise I would need to lose a lot of weight to survive.
Hang on I'm a Magpie so can just fly everywhere, oh to be able to take off without having to flap my wings whilst jumping up and down.
