    Hi Simply Flowers, Im in Kingswinford just outside Dudley. 

    Logan, Secondborn has just bought a house in Redditch and Firstborn lives in Fernhill Heath, Worcester.

    I'm also retired and spend my time looking after grandchildren and gardening.

    Hi from Kingswinford in the West Midlands
  • That's lovely auntyrach. My dad was a keen gardener but I didn't really get into in until after he had passed away. I often think of him and the times I spent at his allotment while I was growing up.

    Yviestevie, I used to live round by the Tolladine road. In a council house until I was 11,then dad bought his own house in Christ church road.Those days couldn't buy council property. My dad grew cabbage and potatoes before we moved, but the second garden was smaller and he couldn't do it anymore because he had a accident, which left him with a bad and shorter leg than the other.image

  • Hi Simply Flowers, 

    I'm new here as of last week.  I live in a little village in Brentwood, Essex and love my newly landscaped garden. I was a secretary in London and retired 4 years ago but I needed more money and had to find another job so I changed careers at 62 and now I work 3 days a week as a phlebotomist. I love my job, love going to see Quo and love my garden!

    I live in West London. On a clear day, I can see Wembley Stadium. Retired 6 years ago. I've always done a bit of gardening, but never had the time to get fully engrossed. Now all that's changed and its developed into an obsession!
