Hi everyone,                                                                             
 Jan here, just a bit about me and mine.                                  
I live in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire                                          
                        
as you can see from the 2 pictures above, Mansfield has          changed from being a bustling market town to a 'modern' town with no character now. We have a market place with only 20     fixed stalls and a 'glorious water feature'...which works             occasionally !                                                                           
I am a genealogist or to put that in laymans terms I 'do' family  trees. I love gardening, all kinds of crafts, computers (when I    can get the thing to do what I want it to!)                                 
Here are a couple of piccies of my garden                                
    

this one was taken just after we had 'remodelled' it                  
    

this one is as it looks now.                                                       
Now to introduce you to the tribe! I am married to Geoff , 37     years next year! Geoff is a lorry driver but would like to retire    tomorrow!                                                                                 
                                                     
Geoff looking happy, just dragged him around yet another        graveyard looking for 'dead bodies' lol                                      
 We both enjoy standing carboots at weekends (if the weather  is fine) and riding the motorbike which is Geoff's 'baby'.He has just bought a FJR1300 which is a big blue touring bike...great  fun!                                                                                           
            
We have 2 grown up children,Dawne (36) and Andrew (Andy)    (33). Dawne is married to Simon and has 2 sons, Luke who is 15 and Sean who is 13                                                            
                         
 Dawne, Simon, Sean and Luke taken when we went to            Tenerife this year.                                                                    
Andy is with partner Leanne now and has a daughter Drew(1), I have another grandaughter Naomi who is 11 but have not      seen her since she was 2 years old .Naomi now lives in            Portsmouth with her mum Liz and new partner.                       

        

Andy and Naomi                                                                      

                                     
Drew at 2 weeks old                                                                
 and last but not least my 'baby' Ceefer, my big ginger tomcat  who has an attitude problem........love him to bits                    
             
Ceef in his favorite place, right in front of computer screen lol
