Foreigner 11 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Greetings All. I have lived in "The Shire" for approximately 25 years and have become interested in local history. I guess I am a Foreigner compared to most who frequent these pages, hence the "nom de plume." I am particularly interested in Carlton and maps of the area circa 1950 / 1960. I also have interests in Amateur Radio, Computers and Militaria. The mode of communication is, in my humble opinion, much more preferable than other popular social media sites.

MargieH 7,600 Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Is that a walking frame that your avatar is shaking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
