Firhall is a small place in Scotland. It is a small village. It is an interesting place for people to travel. Why? First, it is really a beautiful and quiet place. Second, it is a place that has too many rules.
There are a lot of birds and trees there. You can also do many sports, like playing volleyball, basketball and golf. But children don’t like this place. They call it “child-hating ogre”. That is because of the rules in the village.
Each family can only have one dog. People in this village must be over forty-five years old. If grandchildren visit their grandparents, they can’t stay for long.
Now things are getting better. Grandchildren are welcome to live. And if you are under forty-five years old, you can also live here. Most old people like this kind of quiet place.
