Hello from Norfolk

Hi everyone,
I seem to have started A about F. as I have made posts without having the manners to introduce myself. So smacked wrist and let me rectify.
The name is Mike and am 63, retired (ish) caravanner, walker, cyclist and at the instruction of h.t.s.b.o. gardener.(not strictly true as I am beginning to get the bug.) Knowledge is basic and garden is quite big as land in Norfolk was inexpencive in 1973 when we moved here from Rugby. H.t.s.b.o. has done most of the gardening and I have been the Gofor ( go for this, go for that, move that tree, re-lay that lawn, I am sure you all know the score.My only vice is a large collection of wine (mostly red) that I need to check on frequently. In the interest of science you understand.
From what I have seen of this site I have access to unlimited knowledge which will help my browny points.
I look forward to getting to know you all.
ttfn

Hi, there, OWG! I've been here since Feb, and I still haven't introduced myself - I guess people know who I am now, though! So, hello and welcome!

My list of interests is similar to yours, but we use a tent! :D

Hope you enjoy it here - sure you will!

 

Hi denddrobium,
Well met. I was planning the do Scotland for a month next year, in the van, so I hope I can pick your brain on other than the garden.

hello owg welcome to gc

 

Hi there OWG you'll soon find what a friendly group of posters we have on this forum. Have a good time! ele7

 

You're welcome to ask anything about Scotland, OWG! And if I don't know, I'm sure I'll know someone who does. :D

BTW - h.t.s.b.o. - her that should be obeyed??

 

Hi OWG,we are also Caravanners,and can reccomend some beautiful places to visit in Scotland as it one of our favourite places to holiday.The Isle Of Mull is a must,more so than Skye,happy gardening as they say and welcome

Hi there OWG & welcome to GC!

 

Hi! OWG/Mike from another 'Norfolk Dumpling'
- although I suppose you cannot really qualify for that name having
only lived here for 33 years. :D

The research on the red wine - sounds like a good hobby.

Keep you-a troshin' bor!

.

 

Hi OWG, I love winegums, eat em by the bagfull,
if red wine is your only vice then your'e a VGB.

 

Hi Oldwinegum, Love the name as much as the sweet, Nice lot here.

 

Hello OWG!!!!!

They are a good bunch here!!!! The Honey bunch are tenters - mainly 'coz we can't afford a caravan with 2 young boys!!!!!!!!!! I've not been around much lately as I come WAY down the que for the 'puter!!!!! ...and because I have been soooooooo busy doing taxi/ cookhouse/ bottle-washer/ in house advisor and referee duties lately......

I could get into your other hobby though!!! Trouble is, I would only manage a good collection of empty bottles!!!!!

 

Hi there and welcome OWG - love the title. We are a friendly bunch, I think you'll find. By van are you talking about caravan, or motorcaravan. May see you in Scotland, cos, I too will be disappearing up there to go round the coast and few other bits I want to see.

Enjoy GC - we all do :D

 

you are all wellcome to come to scotland and have fun
