    Beautiful Pal, I love your aunties garden. So right.

    Marley, do you know Hythe, Dibden & Totton then? Big changes there since I lived there.

    cheers

    :thumb: Not quite that far south borrowers, Lyndhurst was as far in that direction that we lived. Most of my childhood was spent around Verwood, Nomansland, Godshill, & Woodgreen areas. Some of these have changed & some not much.. Getting nearer to Southampton is very different I know..!!!
    :thumb: A relation was a forest keeper that's why we were there..:thumb: Oh those were very idyllic days..!!:D

    :mad:Not fair Pal, we've been here longer. We should get to be your 'gofers' first, then go down the list:D I can drive:thumb:

    Of course, if like me, there's heavy work involved, we would be your advisors. Just sit & tell you what to do or not, and what photo's to take and when to wake us up after lounging in your gardens:D

    cheers

    Marly, Lyndhurst was only down the road from us, but in those days it was like a 'day out'! Very exclusive, very expensive. I worked for a car dealership there once, in the office, and suffice to say it didn't sell Vauxhalls - and before I get any abuse, I love Vauxhalls & couldn't afford any of the cars they were selling:)

    cheers

    Nuts by name and the rest by nature:D:D

    I would love to show you all around my stomping grounds. I'm lucky living and working where I was dragged up and able to meet up with old friends all the time.
    Villages like Chipping Campden,Stow on the Wold,Bourton on the Water,Broadway Snowshill and my birth home of Draycott, are places I travel through or work in, and the farms and holdings in the surrounding countryside too. The whole area is teeming with beautiful locations which I am happy to share.
    Nut....have you seen my van???:D

    No Pal I have not seen your van...... makes a change from being offered to be shown ones etchings I guess.
    Seriously I think you live in a beautiful part of the UK and somewhere I had never considered visiting before. Just goes to show you dont know what beauties lie on your own doorstep.
    Fly the flag I say..
