Hello, just thought I'd say "bonjour" (or "bonsoir" depending on your time zone). I'm a Brit in exile across the English Channel in Brittany. Living here with my husband, two children and mad dog in an old granite house deep in the countryside. Interests include - veg and soft fruit growing, maintaining our orchard of 40 apple trees and cutting back the brambles/wild blackberry bushes We are currently enjoying the tail end of tropical storm Maria so I'm watching both the rain and the apples falling!
Morning Bretonblue and a warm welcome to GardenStew from West Lothian in Scotland. I look forward to getting to know you. :-D
Salut Bretonblue, is that your house in your avatar? It looks beautiful. Don't forget to check out our blogs, member map and perhaps upload plant images you have to GardenStew PLANTS for all to learn from Details here: http://www.gardenstew.com/plantstew/help#3 // frank

Welcome from hot, dry Texas! Please post pictures of your orchard, gardens, etc. I'd love to see something green for a change!
Hi Bretonblue, welcome to Garden Stew from north Texas. Yes, photos of your orchard, garden and house would be wonderful. Have fun looking around the forum, lots of good information and fun things.
Thanks for the welcome. Will post some apple tree pics as soon as it stops raining! We have "green" a-plenty here. The grass just won't stop growing.
Bonjour or bonsoir as your time is there. Welcome from Missouri, and glad to meet you. It is raining acorns and black walnuts here. We are supposed to get a lovely cool front down out of Canada in a day or two.
Welcome Bretonblue from Wisconsin. Your place sound wonderful. I love how a lot of the English villages and countryside look like there out of a story book. 40 apple trees is a full time job in itself. I also am looking forward to seeing pic's of your gardens and home. Glad you found the Stew. It's a friendly and helpful group from all over the world.
