Hello everyone,

My name's Flo (short for Floriane), I'm French, aged 44 and have been in love with the UK for.... so many years!!!!!! I'm in love with the country, its people, its language (no need to wonder why I work as a professional translator Laughing).

I actually found this site "by accident" a few months ago and as I am now planning a "thatched-cottages" themed (I LOVE those buildings!) trip to England for my summer vacation, this site is a real gold mine. The last time I went to England was in 1987, and I'm terribly missing this country!

Thanks to all the talented photographers out there, I have found many names of many gorgeous places, which is a great help. 

Well, I think that's pretty much all I have to say right now... Sorry but I'm not very good at introductions!

 Flo

Welcome Flo, I do hope our weather is kind to you when you visit in the summer. Look forward to seeing your photos of the thatched cottages (and churches) later in the year Laughing
