Neil Ansell: My life as a hermit (continued)
Two years later, after five years at the cottage, I (1) left the deep country and (2) started a family. I quickly found myself working with homeless people. There were disputes to resolve, fights to break up, medical emergencies, one crisis after (3) another. And always there were people that needed (4) to be talked to.
My lifestyle is very (5) different now. I live in a flat in town, a (6) five-minute walk (7) from the sea, with my two daughters. My children look forward (8) to our occasional visits to Wales. But I always try to arrange my life so that (9) from time to time I still get the opportunity to visit the cottage for a little alone time. When I get there I (10) bring the busyness of town with me, and I rush around looking for storm damage and checking my wood and water supply. But when (11) darkness falls and I light (12) a few candles for the evening and put my feet up by the fireside, time slips away. It's good to be back.
