DorothyJ Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 OK we come from Dorset. Beautiful county. After 40 years we will be sad to move when we sell the house next year but I wont be sorry to leave a village which has changed from a place where everyone knew everyone else to a place so enlarged by development it is unrecognizable. That's down to this need for more housing I suppose and our sadness is another person's happiness. Perhaps that's why us Dorset folk are moving to France - trying to recapture the old days.We bought a house here, near Durtal, 3 years ago after holidaying in the area for a long time so have many French friends but have yet to meet anyone from Dorset or Hampshire. Perhaps they have swopped one coastal area for another. I would have to drive for a good hour and a half to see the sea ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to do better than that!!He's out playing 'table tennis' at the moment, funnily enough - or so he told me!
