Hi

I was chatting to my neighbour the other day and he was telling me about our rank of houses. Its a row of 10 terrace houses built in 1845. They used to all have something going on in the back gardens so many would have pigs so many would have chickens and so many would grow veg. They would all share and swap the things they grew and produced. I just think this is amazing and the funny thing is our garden was one of the garden's soley used for growing veg maybe that would explain why everything i have planted has done so well.  ;D

I love finding out the history of our house we were luckly enough to get the origanal deeds to the house when we brought it. Even states who brought it and for how much. The last owners even had it translated so we can understand it. I have been looking for old photos to see how they looked back in the day  ::) Just so amazing to think how many families have been and gone in what we now call our home.

Nice to see people still enjoy the history of where they live.
I myself went back to wells in somerset a while back and boy has that changed.
Not like the old place I grew up in. :-X

Got them back now to put some tread on them
