I left twice!, once at 18 to go to college and then for good in my early 20s to go to Art college in Worthing, Sussex, and liked the seaside so never went back there to live.

Thats excellent Sarah, will get thinking, this is going to be a very good raffle everyone, dont forget the 3, 2 day breaks!A
