I wish you “Good Morning” and bid welcome to all MM Linkers old and new. May I take this opportunity to say how excited I am at being chosen as the Royal Setter throughout the month of September. I consider it an honour and a privilege -- even more so, because I haven’t been submitting entries for all that long. Perhaps it’s a case of “beginner’s luck”. Hitherto, I have been known as “Handbaglady”, but for the next month I have been dubbed “The Lady Radley” for reasons that should become apparent in due course.
I was born at Blackhill, Consett in County Durham and lived there until March 1992. During this time, I lived in five different houses: three of those were before my marriage and two afterwards. I began my education at the local Benfieldside School, where I spent many happy years. On leaving school, I studied Business Studies at the local Technical College and found employment in Newcastle. My first job was as an Office Junior for a painting and decorating firm, which was followed by similar work for the Co-operative Society.
Have I managed to sneak in at the last minute ? I've been away since Friday and returned early today because I wasn't feeling too well (I won't go into the gory details !). I haven't had time to look at all of the previous entries, so I hope that one of them is at least different from someone else's.
