Born in Wales, When moved to Lincoln when was young then to North Wales (AKA A RAINING HELL) When was little older. Moved back into area when was like 10-11 maybe? Then 17-18 moved to Cardiff, then Aberystwyth. Moved back and been here for 4 years ish.

Also I aint telling you how long I was in Cardiff or Aber so you can't figure out how ancient I am ner ner!

You get around a bit! Like a f**king yo-yo.

I've only ever lived in 3 places and the first place was 15 minutes from the second place.

Why did you bother moving?

Who me?

I lived in the first house until I was about 8. We moved into my Great Gran's house after she died. Plus it was a 2 minute walk from town and school.

Aw. Okay then, you are forgiven.

It's okay Great Gran, you may now rest in peace...

Phew!

I can't imagine what it must've been like to have a Great Grandmother around, when growing up. I didn't even get much time with a Grandmother around. My Mum's mum died before I was born, and my Dad's mum died when I was 7. I had a couple of mates who had Great Grandmothers around for a few years. I remember one of them used to refer to her as his "Nin".

My great grandma was a flipping Medium, apparently. Slightly glad I never met her.
And I don't want to now, Great Grandma!

That's very exciting! I'm jealous.

I suppose it would have been interesting to talk to her. BUT I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY GHOSTS. Not that I really believe in them.
Eep.

I love blinkin' I do.

Don't think I believe it but someone once said he blinks a lot because he's an ex miner, and miners blink because they find the daylight too strong for them. I've met miners and don't remember them blinking all the time. Must just be an odd part of his act. 'I know this because...(long pause for buying drinks) I was there!' Big grin and blink. >_< Good old Boyo.

Not even if she does some poltergeistly activity and produces some traditional gran baking?

I think she died a few years before we moved into the house. I don't have many (if any) memories of her.
