Default Hello from France
I've been lurking for a while and have decided it is time to say Hello!
I was English but I've been living in south-west France for 45 years and am now French.
I only have a low pension and tend to buy orchids that have lost their flowers and wait to see what will show up! I have a dozen different Encyclias which are my favourites.
Thank you for letting me join your board.....I'll try not to ask too many stupid questions.

Mary

Hello Mary and to the best place on Earth!
Disney's got nothing on us!!!

The surprise factor is an interesting concept...

and there's no such thing as a stupid question.
The people here will answer any questions you may have with a big smile on their faces! Ask away

We meet in the chat room each night around 8pm est...we'd love to meet you there
