Hi Dunc, I'm new to this and glad to hear you say fat and gobby. I've always been gobby but now I'm getting fat as well and need to get rid of it, it's even less atractive for a lady (I use the term loosly). Actually I just love talking to new people and enjoy discovering how other folks live. I'm in Lincolnshire on the fens , flat,flat,flat. I discovered walking a few years back and have done one or two but not nearly enough. Now due to the recession I have weekends off and time for me me me.
