Long Story so I hope you are sat comfortable. Many years ago ( about a hundred) I use to be GEM - Good earth mother, so called because a friend suggested it, she felt I was the total oposite to her, I grow veg, keep chicken, make bread/jam etc she buys all that from the supermarket so she doesn't chip her nails -(you wouldn't believe we are best friends !!). Anyway it wouldn't take earthmother so I added the Good, because I do try to be .
When the powers that be decided we all had to resign on it wouldn't let me use my old name, and so I used the name my father always called me KatieJane ( my real name is Katherine Jane ...... ).
So there you go, and we all lived happy ever after .
There seems to be some confusion. I am a she not a he. Well , last time I went in Bravissimo I was anyway.
I live in the East midlands, where the various strands of my extended family have lived for at least 200 years.
I love Cornwall, and If I win the lottery I would probably relocate down there. But until then I have to make do with holidays. I have spent a lot of time diving in Cornwall and on windy days when It is not fit to go out in a boat, I have visited a lot of cornish gardens, and spent a lot of money in cornish nurseries on "hardy " plants that are anything but when you live North of the Trent.
"Ah" Katie Jane, dreams, when I retired I said it would be nice to live beside the sea Saltburn Whitby scarborough? Joan looked at me in horror and said "what leave all our friends and family? move to where we are not known"? and about that time some friends who had moved to Devon came back home. They had moved into a village and sharp realised they would be out-comers for the rest of their lives and gave up. Our dreams can become nightmares more so if a partner becomes ill or worse.
For a long time I thought Verdun was a Lady bird and by some of the posts a fiesty one at that, being male explains it all we are just blunt. Oh well washing to hang out so must fly.

Verdun's led a very sheltered life.
Makes me think of the episode of Father Ted where all of the priests get lost in the ladies' underwear department. Question is, which one is Verdun??
