Glad you could join us. A big welcome from Argentina. This board is addicting so you should get a lot of computer time in, LOL.
Isn't Skype great? That is how I keep in touch with my family in NY and friends around the world. Nice to be able to talk live and see everyone. |

We were at the top of the Holyhead Rd, Coundon, before that Earlsdon. I lived in Coventry for 24 years. We used to walk the dog on the Wedge, but I believe that is built up area now. You are lucky from my point of view only having to go to Warwick - no quilt shops here, only one 60 kms away - but prices/availability (24-26 euros/metre) here mean having to buy online from UK or US anyway. Think a bit of me will always be a "Coventry kid" - I went there at 19, and made many good friends over the years, and have lots of good memories of my time there. |
This world gets smaller!! I was born in Coundon(Hollyfast Rd) went to Southbank Rd School! Lived in Evenlode Cres as a child. Lived in Earlsdon (Coniston Rd) from 1980/2001 then bought a bungalow just off the A45 near Coventry Airport(The old Baginton Airport) We live in a lane overlooking fields but with the convenience of the road network shops etc. close by.They built a road thro the Wedge for the Jag(No longer there) but the bridle way etc is still there. They didn.t build on the fields.
