    Default Hello

    My name is Rachel and I live in Farnham, Surrey UK (about an hour from London). I found this site through Google and I joined to help save more money rather than spend today, forget about tomorrow. I also want to get back to the basic pleasures in life. My niece stayed with us at the weekend and all she wanted to do was take a picnic to the park. We as a family haven't done that in years. I've got a lot to learn. I am married and I have 3 girls aged 11, almost 9 (any cheap party tips would be useful) and 7.5 months. I have been a SAHM for 9 years. I have one much loved 13 year old black moggy. Anybody else from the UK?

    Hi, Rachel,

    There are a handful of us Brits on here, I suspect that quite a few "lurk" and don't Post

    I am sure you will find a lot of interesting stuff on FV.

    Welcome

    Karen

    Hi Rachel, welcome to FV! What's a moggy? I'm from Canada, and I've never heard the term before.
