Lincolnshire! I've spent the last two days helping my mum sell food to a bunch of farmers, in the middle of a muddy broccoli field, just outside of Boston. I have never been so bored in my life.

Some of my ancestors were from Lincolnshire. One of the relations (so the story goes) was so bored and depressed when weeding a field of carrots that she threw herself under a passing train. The fields of daffodils and tulips are pretty in the spring but I like to live where there are hills. Sue

also have to add to susan - the lincolnshire wolds are not flat - only the fen area is flat. I live in a city with a hill in it that is called Steep Hill - well come and walk up it and see how flat Lincoln really is!!!!

Nooooo! I love Lincolnshire - lived near Spilsby for 27 years and miss it (though I love Durham too). Lorrainex
