Where were you born? Do you still live in the same town as you always have?.
I was born in Glasgow due to being born prem and other complications. Then was moved to a hospital closer to home and then went home ;D Have been there every since and even though its small i boring i'd never change it for the world.

I was born in London and lived in Herefordshire at Kington [Oxford Arms Hotel] till I was 6 when I went back to London and lived in Teddington with my nan. When my mum re-married I moved to Cobham in Surrey, then married myself and moved to Germany before returning to England and settling in Wrington before moving to Weston-super-Mare where I have lived for the past 35 years. Talking about small worlds - when Stephs was little she used to ride a little shetland stallion called Samber Sarson for the Samber stud in Tedburn St Mary. We were all up in Peterborough enjoying the summer champs, having our barbi and talking about nothing inparticular when we discovered that they came from the Teddington area too. Malcome Rae even remembered my house, and me when I was a child, standing at my gate saying hello to everyone on their way to the train station.

I was born in Stockport in Cheshire and when I left school I moved to Pangbourne in Berkshire to train for my NPS Grooms Diploma at the famous Oakley Stud. Two years later I moved to Lewes in East Sussex and I was head girl for another two years at the Bleachgreen Welsh Pony Stud. Realising that If I carried on working with ponies I would not see that much of the world and my social life had hit rock bottom so I then moved in with a friend in Haywards Heath in West Sussex and spent eight years there working for LLoyds Bank Stockbrokers and started working as cabin crew for Air Europe flying out of Gatwick Airport. When I was working for Caledonian Airways I moved down to Brighton and spent a couple of years there having a good social life and that's where I met my husband. We then moved to Shoreham-By -Sea and on to Steyning and by this time we'd had both our children and had accumulated a few ponies! As we were very interested in a better lifestyle for the kids and ourselves we decided to move to Devon so we initially settled in Okehampton and then after a few months moved up to Torrington in North Devon where we have lived for two and a half years. We are on the move again soon but we won't be going far. xx
