Intro from Soobee the newbee

Post by SooBee »

At last I seem to have found the natural follow-up to the old Girl Guides motto:- Be Prepared.
I was a guider for years and still have that natural urge to hoard anything that might prove handy one day.
Mind you, that does occasionally have to be tempered with the need to clear the junk out now and then!

I have an army background, a university education and a motley of skills and hobbies.
I live in South Wales out in the country near Nash Point.
I am retired and have a Husband, a son and two cats.

Hi! Welcome here, I only found it a little time ago myself. Brilliant to remember the girl guides motto :)

Thanks for the welcome
The cats look best dressed in their usual black and are quite definitely the cuddliest vermin exterminators I know.
I just wish they didn't include birds and bunnies in their list of vermin.

I rather thought there might be some army interest here...an addiction to 'compo'?
Also, these 'area' tags ring a bell or two. What are they about please?
Last time I dealt with them I was doing the PRO job for the RNA in Area 7.
(Yes I married Navy the second time around.) All retired now.
