About Lorraine...
Hello, I am Lorraine, a 51 year old Mum to a wonderful young son living in a lovely part of the North-West of England in the county of Lancashire.
Whilst using technology on an every-day basis, I am a very traditional gal and love nothing more than to send or receive letters; real, proper, good old fashioned hand written letters. Imagine my joy when I stumbled across the postcrossing website by pure chance. I can't wait to send and receive postcards. There really is no greater joy than coming home after a very busy day at work to find a hand written note lying on the doormat waiting for me rather than a pile of junk mail or bills.
I enjoy reading but sadly don't have much time these days, and in the winter months like nothing better than doing jigsaws, again these can take up a fair bit of time so I don't attempt quite as many as I would like. I thoroughly enjoy doing Sudokus (but find it most frustrating when I get two of the same number in a row!) and am currently trying to learn how to do cryptic crosswords which I am sorry to admit are getting the better of me at the moment.
I seem to be rambling on and on here so will end this profile with a saying that my English teacher used to say to me. "Brevity, Lorraine, Brevity" he used to tell me as I rambled on in my essays. Perhaps I have found a hobby which will enable me to "keep it short and sweet" and comply with his wishes as, after all, you can't fit too much on a postcard (or can you?)
I look forward to becoming an active postcrosser and look forward to sending and receiving lots and lots of lovely postcards.
With warmest regards
Lorraine
