Lost in France
Hello and Bonsoir.
I am new to this site, joined because although I live in France, my heart is still at home, that being Accrington and Oswaldtwistle.

I grew up on Stanhill Lane, before leaving to go to London for seventeen years, and then I decided to move back to Ossy.

Where abouts in France are you, and what took you there?

We moved here nearly 6 years ago, we thought it would be a better life for the children who were 11 and 12 at the time.

I love France. I spent a term there when I was at art school, as well as having had many, many holidays there, both in the south, and the east coast.

I did consider moving to Brittany...and still might.

We live in Brittany 40 minutes from Roscoff, and near to the Cote de Granit Rose, a beautiful coastline where the rocks are a pink colour, hence the name.
