The Town Where I Live

In this town, I've lived for 30 years having been brought up down Ayrshire way but meeting Christine took me away to Renfrew where I'd for rest of life stay It's a small town just like any other being a royal burgh it's history's long as it's never to be my home town where one's born and bred is your song Although I've said what I've just said this town is ideally in the right place so much good access down to the coast as well as great transport links which is ace Having large shopping centre on its doorstep wherein history Renfrew Castle sat there so that's the town where I do live nothing great but has folk who do care

Hi Gordon, Sounds like you live in an idyllic town; how delightful! I assume you live in England? There is something to be said for living in a quiet 'storybook' town. Although I live in the U.S.A. I am also fortunate to live in a pastoral setting that I call home. Take Care, Paulette

Hi Paulette, Glad you enjoyed my piece and I live in Scotland. Your place of home sounds really nice, I've also thought that it would be nice to travel across America but just to visit the smaller places and none of the big cities got see the real America. Thanks again and take care, blessings,Gordon
