There are and will be new members who are not regular forum users and don't know others here (yet!). I'm Ali, 2 dogs, 2 hens, several goldfish and a Steve. Been here for few years now and loving it. Enjoy gardening and growing our own veggies and have the ambition this year 'to get out more'

Hi all, I live near Fougeres which I am nuts about, I love to take photographs in the forest and around the old part of Fougeres town.
In the last three years I have taken up Photography, Painting pictures, art journals, and generally finding how to waste oodles of time on the Internet, ie forums, my blog, flickr, facebook, twitter. ETC.
I love meeting for coffee for a chat, and looking around old towns photographing architecture and visiting art exhibitions.
I endevour to help MOH with the renovation of this old stone house by weilding a paintbrush. I attempt to grow a few veggies but do not have a clue what I am doing!
At home I drink like a fish, and swear a lot. Best wishes Blu x

Hi all - I'm Geraldine, ex banker and commuter. Now my commute is up the garden to inspect the weeds on the veg patch where I like to think about growing fruit and veg. I live near Ploerdut in Dept 56 with OH Mick, two kids (aged 7&12) and mad bearded dog called Belle. Had a house here since 2000 and have lived here full time - on and off - since 2002.
I'm interested in lots of crafts and pastimes - like making jams and chutneys and I crochet and embroider stuff when I get a chance.

Hello! My name is Cheeky Chops and I am an alcoholoic. This isn't the local AA meeting? Merd. I am always walking into the wrong place.
My human name is Laraine and I live with my mother who is very ill with dementia, heart problems and other stuff. My baby is Biggles. I think he is 19 weeks old now. He is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I live in Manchester and haven't been able to get over to my place near Huelgoat / Morlaix for a number of years but I am going to really try hard to get over this year. Two grown up 'birth' kids and forgotten how many foster kids. Taught Psychology before looking after mother. Bit of part time work in 'mental health'. Still do a bit of Psychotherapy. Love D.I.Y.. I like cream cakes. Can't wait to meet as many cyber friends in real life from this ere site. I am very old (50 this year) ;D

Hi I'm C aka Celia I live in the very furthest NE bit of dept 35 between St James and St Hilaire du Harcouet. I have no Steve but I like to borrow Blu's from time to time as he's a pretty handy bloke and they are ever such good friends. I do however, have 3 children (15,12 and 8 - blue pink blue in that order) a dog called daisy who is a real BF dog having come from Steve and Lisa in the days of the old forum and a cat called pans along with assorted chickeny goosey things. Previously living in Bristol I moved here three and a half years ago, initially with a Mr but he went fairly soon after. I alternate between being great fun and a crashing bore depending on how you catch me but I have made some wonderful wonderful friends both real and virtual through BF and to that I probably owe what little sanity I have left.

I've recently realised that there is a new definition of "troll" I'm not an internet troll, can barely check my email. I'm the good old fashioned sort, that hides under bridges and eats goats and small children ;D
