I am semi retired and work in a nursery, which allows me to do something I love and get paid for it at the same time. I have just started collecting orchids which adds to my large collection of all different plants. I love to sew, do all crafts and art. I love animals and have 2 cats and 2 dogs, who are a huge part of our family. I'm a keen photographer, having studied digital photography. I love taking photos of my animals and doing botanical photography.
