Hi Patsy. Where did you train ? I trained in the early 60s at Alderhey Hospital!!!!!! Maybe we ave friends in common, I certainly have friends in Perth . I live in North Wales now though I am a Lancashire Las originally, I trained in Liverpool and met my husband there. We have moved around the U K and have lived for a short time in Hong Kong. Have just ( today) been to Chester for a bit of retail therapy, Chester is 25 miles away. I know whwere the Boat House is , but have not used it as a watering hole Chester is still lovely , and Liverpool is great since it has been the City of Culture, it has Tate Liverpool with some great exhibitions on, as you will remember the Walker Art Gallery which is one of the best and the Port Sunlight with the Lady lever Gallery and a host of Pre Raphelite paintings. What we do lack is your sunshine. I had a dog who also would not let me out of his sight , he was a rescue and was so anxious. Lovely to hear from you..... S.
