It is a lifestyle to which I aspire. I quite fancied Sissinghurst where Vita Sackville-West had everyone living in separate barns or turrets. But we're doing pretty well to wangle separate bedrooms in a 3-bed house really, and with him going to bed when I get up, we are practically in parallel universes as it is. It would just be nice not to come down to a table covered in dirty mugs when I cleared it before I went to bed.
