I worked for the HMRC (Inland Revenue) for nearly 25 years .Loved my job.

I have one son aged 31 ,3 step children - all adults, 12 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren - all of whom bring great joy into my life.
I love to play games I played as a child in the 50`s with them - and drag them on Nature walks ,anything that takes them away from a screen of some kind !
They in turn teach me Technology !!

I live on the glorious North Wales coast - half a mile from the sea and half a mile from the mountains.
I was born and bred in Liverpool and have a deep and abiding love for my home city.

Life is sad at the moment as my husband is on a Terminal diagnosis and - as I always promised him after his Cancer -I am nursing him at home.It`s not easy either physically or emotionally but I will never break my promise to him - he has been a wonderful husband.

I am now 63 in years and 18 in my head !:) I come from a family of Type `1 diabetics - right back to my Great Grandma who had what they then called "Sugar sickness " .I recently had a mini rebellion and ate and drank what I wanted - HUGE mistake:meh:.Boy was I ill, so my rebellion has been quenched !

On reflection I`ve had a wonderful life ,fun,love,a good job and a wonderful family.I have been blessed
