"MOTHERHENS MOVING HOME"

WHEN I CAME HOME HERE FROM THE COAST FOLKS I NEEDED TO FIND A PLACE.

TO LIVE AND AT MY AGE NOT WANTING TO BUY I LOOKED FOR A HOUSE WITH NO TRACE.

OF GANGS AND HASSLE SOMEWHERE QUIET TO BE NEAR MY FAMILY.

SO IV'E LEASED THIS LITTLE HOUSE FOR THREE YRS AND IT'S REALY SUITED ME.

BUT THE LAST FEW MONTHS YOU KNOW MOTHERHEN HASN'T BEEN VERY WELL.

MY BREATHINGS BEEN BAD AND THE STAIRCASE AND GARDEN SO LARGE HAVE BEGUN TO TELL.

A STRUGGLE FOR ME MOST OF THE TIME AND THE LANDLORD WON'T DO NOTHING SO.

WITH NO CENTRAL HEATING AND MINUS DEGREES THIS WINTER IT'S TIME TO GO.

MY HEALTH GOT WORSE AND MY LEGS AND FEET STARTED TO GET BAD THEN.

CHESTY AND FEELING SHOCKING IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE FOR OLD MOTHERHEN.

I FILLED IN A FORM WHEN I FIRST CAME HOME HERE FOR A LOCAL AUTHORITY HOME

WELL A LADY CAME TO SEE ME LAST YEAR AND SAID YOU NEED'NT WORRY OR MOAN.

I CAN SEE THAT YOU ARE PRIORITY SO I'M MOVING YOU UP MY LIST.

TO THE TOP BAND FOR HEALTH REASONS I WAS DELIGHTED AND THRILLED TO BITS.

SHE SUGGESTED T O ME A BUNGALOW AND NOT WITHING AN ESTATE.

SOMEWHERE SEMI RURAL NICE AREA ONLY A FEW HOMES WOULD BE GREAT.

I HAD TWO DISTRICTS IN MIND AT THIS TIME WHERE I WOULD LIKE TO GO.

BUT OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE TO WAIT YOUR TURN FOR ONE TO COME EMPTY IT'S SLOW.

AFTER THREE YEARS YES THE TIME HAS FLOWN A CALL CAME THE OTHER DAY.

FROM THIS LADY OFFERING ME A KEY FOR A BUNGALOW HIP- HIP -HOORAY !!!

IT'S IN A LOVELY HANDY SPOT WITH WINDOWS GEORGIAN TYPE STYLE.

UPVC DOUBLED GLAZED SP PRETTY I COULDN'T TAKE IT IN FOR A WHILE .

FLAT GROUND WITH A HANDY SHOP ON THE BUS ROUTE TO TOWN AND TO CITY'S THREE (3).

LOTS OF STORAGE SPACE INSIDE TOO WHICH REALY WILL SUIT ME.

I WAS OVER THE MOON SO THE VERY NEXT DAY I TOOK A LOOK ROUND WITH HER.

OH!!! I HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY FOR ONCE IT'S LOVELY JUST WHERE I PREFER.

JUST THE JOB NO HASSLE NO GANGS AND NOT A SIGHTING OF ROUGH.

QUIET AND NO FURTHER FROM FAMILY I COULD'NT THANK HER ENOUGH

FOR CONSIDERING ME FOR THIS PROPERTY ALTHOUGH I HAVE WAITED MY TIME.

THEY SAY IT COMES TO THOSE WHO WAIT AND IT'S THREE YEARS NOW DOWN THE LINE

THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE LOCAL AUTHORITY THEY JUST LOOK LIKE PRIVATE HOMES.

GEORGIAN UPVC LOVELY WINDOWS WITH A BAY LIKE ROOSTERS COAST HOME.

BUT I MUST ADMIT I HATE MOVING HOME I HOPE IT WILL BE MY LAST.

WELL AT LEAST UNTIL ROOSTER RETIRES FROM WORK AND ANOTHER 6YRS HAVE PASSED.

SO I MAY BE OFFLINE QUITE SHORTLY UNTIL I GET ALL SORTED OUT.

THERES SUCH A LOT TO DO WHEN YOUR MOVING BUT I'LL GET THERE I HAVE NO DOUBT.

NOT IN THE BEST OF HEALTH I KNOW BUT WITH FAMILY ON HAND QUITE NEAR.

THEY'LL HELP ME WITH NO PERSUASION OR THEY KNOW THEY WILL GET A THICK EAR .

HEEEEEEEEE--HEEEEEEEEEEEE

IT'S OPEN PLAN GROUND IS THE GARDEN AND THE AUTHORITY CUT THE GRASS.

BUT THE LADY SAID YOU CAN CUT IT YOURSELF AND FENCE IF YOU LIKE AS TIMES PASS.

YOU KNOW I LOVE MY GARDEN AND I'LL PUT LOTS OF TUBS OUTSIDE.

I CAN IMAGINE IT LOOKING PRETTY AND FROM WIERDO I WON'T HAVE TO HIDE HE-HEEEEEEE..

I KNOW HOW TO MAKE A HOME LOOK NICE AND IT WON'T TAKE ME VERY LONG.

EVERY DAY TAKING THINGS STEADY AND ON GOOD DAYS I'LL BE BUSY AND THRONG.

MY MOTHER USED TO SAY THAT DOOR NUMBERS CAN OFTEN BE LUCKY FOR SOME.

WELL YRS AGO FRIENDS I HAD LOTS OF LUCK AND I LIVED AT 21.

STRANGELY ENOUGH IV'E THOUGHT OF THESE BUNGALOWS LOTS OF TIMES OF LATE.

GUESS WHAT FRIENDS WHEN I ARRIVED .........IT WAS .... 21......... IS THAT FATE?

I WON'T BE MOVING OUT OF THIS HOME TILL BACK END OF FEBRUARY.

THIS IS THE BEST TIME FOR ME TO GO AS I CARN'T DO THINGS IN A HURRY.

I WILL MISS MY COMPUTER VERY MUCH BUT A PRIORITY I THINK THIS IS NOT.

SO I WON'T BE ARRANGING WITH... AOL ... UNTIL MORE ORGANISED IV'E GOT.

WHEN I GET THE CHANCE I'LL SHOW YOU SOME PICS IF IV'E TIME BEFORE THEY CUT OFF MY LINE.

SO PLEASE DON'T FORGET OLD MOTHERHEN I'LL BE BACK SOON WITH
