Duchess of the Shire

New year's resolutions... I suppose I should have a fair few in mind before the end of the month and the end of the year creeps up on me unknowingly.


1. I shall not give my heart away to every man who tells me that he loves me.


2. Never again shall I be manipulated by those with cruel intentions.


3. This year I shall make some progress with the direction I want the rest of my life to go.


4. I shall decide on a county or even a country to live in for more than a year.


5. Labouring shall come to an end in the next year, and governing children shall take over my life... I think.
