    Hello, Just found this website when I was messing around on the internet. I was really looking for a knitting website/forum.
    I recently moved back to WB after living in France for several years, retired and living with my hubby and big soft dog.
    I like gardening, but now have arthritis so cant do much, luckily my garden in small, (not like in France where they have huge gardens).
    Looking forward to getting involved in the website, and specially with others who knit.

        Thank you for all the nice replies, we miss this type of forum there was a good one in France for English speaking people living out there, but apart from Facebook there isnt anything else. Look forward to taking part in this one.

        Welcome in Chris.
        Poor old WB. It's just not the same these days.
        Stick to the gardening to cheer you up.
        Keep the knitting for when the weather is unhelpful - you'll get plenty of practice I fear.

        Good Luck.
