I've been trying to find details of local clubs for you Jack but the site for FOBBS has been off line tonight. Would you like to try it at your leisure http://www.fobbs.org.uk Good luck = Don.
PS Hmmmm I'm so sorry, Widnes eh?. Well, we all have our cross to bear  |

Hello,
http://www.bonsai-wire.com/clubsdata.htm
I see there's a Club around 15 miles from you, in Chester. Have I got the distance right and do you have transport?
And one in Tarporley - is that within travelling distance?
Hope you find a Club to join.
Penny. |

Hello Jack.
Hope you are able to find a Club to attend. The name "Widnes" instantly brings to mind the rugby league club. Remember them well from watching TV.

Hello Jack, I used to live in Widnes many moons ago, in fact my nan and my dad still live there! My nan on the Lynton Crescent and my dad works at Tony's bistro (Tony is his brother) crn Albert Road and drinks in the Bradley, perhaps we know some people in common.

So GioGio is a bird. I had begun to wonder if it should be mandatory to state gender in the profile. We made early mistakes with Stacey and Marajade you know. |

Sorry if I disappoint you Stymie but I cant fly !! I will get round to uploading a photo in my profile, eventually. Hopefully, with my long blond hair nobody will think me a lad anymore....
