8 in total.
Born in Portsmouth (dad in RN)
We moved up to a rented flat in Old Trafford where sis was born (literally - had letters after her name even as a baba - BBA - ‘born before arrival’ at the hospital).
Then we moved round the corner into a rented house. Oh the space! We two sisters even had our own huge playroom.
Then into another house as mum & dad had saved enough for a mortgage by then. Mum worked full time in a factory and in 1965 she earned £8 p.w. and the mortgage was £32 p.m. they decided they could afford to buy.
After that in 1974 we married, bought our first house, then another and finally our ‘forever home’ in 1979.
Lived there with our girls and dogs for 32y then 10y ago we sold up, cashed in and downsized to this small apartment in the UK and paid the balance off our mortgaged small apartment in Spain.
So 8 moves in total. and an extra bijou place in the sun = 9
Given you a potted life story too! Apologies if I wittered on there.
