Hi from Suffolk!

Post: # 26303Post NattyEm »

Just found this site, and wow it's brilliant!

I'm Emma, I'm a home-educating mum of twin girls, and we've just moved back here from Dorset, where I had an allotment. Now I just have my garden, but have great ideas on just how much veg I can squeeze into it and still leave the kids room to play! Not doing too bad so far!

Look forward to exploring more 8)

I'm in Ipswich, which is a bit of a change from the rural life in Dorset, but good nevertheless :)

ahh then you'll be interested in the mudpud thing - www.muddlepuddle.co.uk and the associated email group. As it's about home-edding under 8s! They have a summer camp every year where I met Kirsty! Although I had no idea she was going to join here the same day as me, thats just a spooky coincidence!

Clubs in Ipswich - well the one I used to frequent as a lass was then called Hollywoods (then it became Cartouche, now it's called Zest) but I only used to go on the cheapy alternative student type night.

It's a well known fact that there are actually only 56 people on the whole internet in total. We had them all on here at the same time once.
