I was sad to read of the loss of Miss Hope Bourne a legend on Exmoor and a true countrywoman. Not for her the soft life on welfare but a life of true independance and self sufficiency. Her writings for the West Somerset Free Press captured the wild spirit of Exmoor.

Thanks Barney

I read the obituary in this morning's paper.

An inspiring life story and an excellent obituary.
