Didn't know the word small holding before, but I think our home is one. Our home is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy. ^ That sounds like your own bit of heaven, sir. home => belonging Link to comment
chattius 2,527 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 belonging -> princedom Our house is build on the ruins of a given up settlement. It was the border of two princedoms, one catholic and one the new lutherian. Old 'village' vanished in the 1618-1648 war. Old church books said that more than two thirds of the population died on dieseases, starved or were killed in raids. The village was given up. The oldest parts of our current house were build in 1743 as an allyear woodchopper camp which could supply itself. Then an watchtower for forest fires was added and a ranger family lived there. That was when my ancestors start to live there. 1 Link to comment

It's remarkable that you get to live in such history and you are literally "living" it... gosh...what if you'd only had a family of one like so many here in Montreal... princedom -> The Little Prince gogo gogo Link to comment

Delta! 987 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 tale -> Story I wanted to say tail... but Chattius described to many great things too just go with tail... (in Afrikaans, we would've said "Jy kry die gatkant van die storie" translates into, "you get the backside of the story") which would've also been a pun then I suppose... 1 Link to comment
