Heyup from the Lake District, England

Post: # 116848Post ollybean »

I guess 'ish' could be my hobby of delving into skips, which is frowned upon by my wife and
so it can be a furtive occupation.
Been brought up in the country with parents who have had goats, pigs, ducks, hens, turkeys, ferrets, and dogs. Post war child wearing clothes made out of curtains, blankets, rewound woolens etc (sob sob). I have always been careful (mean-ha!) so 'make do' is the motto.
( personal info-I reckon i was the best ever tree climber so go-ape has nothing on me, they will find my name carved at the top of the trees.)
Ollybean---Hey i am a Jerry not a Margo, how can i change?
