NATURAL HISTORY, COUNTRY LIFE & PETS. For the average townie - brick dust in the veins and an unholy dependency on carbon monoxide - the country is a bit of an enigma. Yet for vast numbers of us, there is one abiding fantasy that helps us through the urban nine to five: the hope that one day we too will up-sticks, downsize and green-shift to the country. As 'going organic' and 'buying local' become the maxims of our age, more of us than ever are making this fantasy a reality. But before you trade in the mean streets for muddy tracks - even if it's just a weekend visit or an impromptu ramble - there is an unwritten 'country code' that should not be ignored. How to behave? Where to wander? What to wear? When to arrive? Who to ask? Whether you're going fruit-picking, spending a hen weekend in a remote cottage, or planning to buy the perfect rural retreat, this is the ideal purchase for anyone who has ever been caught off-guard without a pair of wellies in the great outdoors.
