Challenge Complete!!, we sold most of our land and Farm House! Enabling us to concentrate on Purl Design LLP - Sustainable Architecture and allow our guests to enjoy the peaceful retreat here at The Mill Cottages in either of our one bed cottages, along with our resident pets, ponies, chickens, goats, cats and dogs! We have spent the last year renovating the 400 year old mill for us to live in, completed late 2012 and love every minute!!!... We are looking forward to another successful year.

THE HUME CLAN!
And you thought we had hatched!...Well No we are descendants from 'apparently' Royalty!!! The Scottish Hume or used to be Home is a town in Scotland where we all come from apparently..Well I married into it but Pete is supposed to be from there!...There is so much history its hard to unravel really, but I did find 'The Hume clan badge' and 'The Hume coat of Arms', (above)...The coat of arms is quite something and what a motto...'True to the end!"...suits us just gfine!.., just in case you are remotely interested, or if there are any other Hume's out there that would like to shed some light on the ancestry!

The perfect motto for the Hume Clan
Happy New Year Michelle! This greeting comes from the SW archipelago of Finland, islands of Nauvo. A scottish soldier, Peter Hume once lived here, owned the manor houses of Käldinge, Väcklax and Hanglax ( we live there), and was buried in Nauvo church. I could send you a picture of the chapel, e.g. via facebook: Ulla-Maija Söderlund or Nagusalen
