I am a Lancashire lass. A little Red Rose. Born in Fleetwood near Blackpool to be precise.

Born in Tunbridge Wells, Kent but moved to St Leonards, East Sussex in 1988 and have been here ever since (probably struck by the Hastings curse which means I will stay here for ever now! :o)

France, for the last 40 years. Most of the time in Paris. Now in the country. I work here on my farm, on the edge of the Alps, as a writer.

I might be able to provide help to researchers with French queries.

I'm not particularly worried about revealing my address because I live in a wild place surrounded by gigantic cliffs and terrifying ravines. Stalkers coming here would risk their lives. They would have to dodge dogs, possibly buckshot from certain locals... but would most likely simply fall into holes in the gruyère ground before going far. A special kind of wilderness! (Google with "Vercors" to see what I mean.)
