Greetings from cheapandcheerful in France

Post: # 36656Post cheapandcheery »

Hello everyone that remembers cheapandcheerful.
I use to be called cheapandcheerful but I couldn't remember my password when I loged in and of course I now have a different email address---anyway it seemed easier just to reregister.
So I am now cheapandcheery and I'm loged in :cheers: :cheers:

Hope you've all had a good year.

I could have reset that account for you if you wanted, not to worry, cheery is a much better name :wink:

Hi Andy,
It's good to be back too.
And Oh it's so good to have a computer and broadband. Haven't had a computer for over a year now.

Hi Cheery!

Of course, now I have the image in my head of Cheery Littlebottom, member of The Guard in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Sorry. :oops: You'll have to post a pic to get that out of my head :)

Welcome Cheery! :flower:

Do tell us where in France you are. My mum lives there near the Central Massif. Way up in the hills!

I remember you! You've got some catching up to do here and we want a blow by blow account of all your adventures since moving to France! :mrgreen: (It was you with the motorbike and sidecar wasn't it?).

We live in a small village called Gournay, near to Chef Boutonne in Deux Sevres (79)
Do we drink cider, Dibnah we drink ANYTHING!
Millymollymandy, yes it is us with the sidecar, but old Nora is to be sold. It was a great laugh for a while but decided we were too old.
