Five To View: Farms

We have an agricultural theme this week. This, quite simply, is because I have been Farmville-d.

If you haven’t a clue what I’m on about, you are very, very lucky.

Farmville is a seemingly innocent Facebook game, but be warned: it can take over your life. (My name is Jocelyn, and .. sob! … I am a Farmville addict…).

All day, you’ll be plagued by questions like: When will my blueberries be ready? Has my tractor re-fuelled? Fences or hedges? Should I sell my sheep?

And, most crucially – for me, at any rate – will I ever be able to upgrade my pink cottage to a pink barn conversion?

It’s absolutely incessant. I’m now planning my lunch hour around when I need to plough and plant.

This obsession has not gone unnoticed by my boss who, in an attempt to wean me off, suggested that this week’s Five to View should feature farms. Real farms.*

(*None of them are as fabulous as my virtual one, though…)
