City man: At last I can breathe! No newspapers, no gambling, no one I know!
On his first day he dedicates himself to taking care of the vegetable garden.

On the second day he builds and paints a fence and enjoys himself, feeding the chickens.

But during the remaining 27 days, he reads newspapers, plays the domino and goes train spotting, hoping to see a familiar face.
