Sadly I am a bit of a hoarder and have kept far too many of my grandparents and parents possessions as they pass on. Although well-organised, my loft is fit to burst so not planning on moving anywhere soon or it would mean having a ruthless clear-out! My current number is an 18 which is ironically how long we've lived here and how long I lived in my childhood home.

Sadly, many of the numbers on the various front doors have slipped from my ever diminishing memory, even though, for some bizarre reason, I can instantly recall the catalogue number of 'Face Value' by Phil Collins (V.2185 fact fans).<br />All good wishes to yourself and Mrs M for a long and happy life in your new gaff.The Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237251779370596904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-75258870097864022332017-06-03T13:13:43.721+01:002017-06-03T13:13:43.721+01:00I've no idea what the average might be.

I've just worked out that I have 7 in my life so far (13, 2, 44, 19, 8, 157, 15) varying amounts of time in each, but current one is now nearly as long as my main childhood one, and it feels right that that should be the case, with all the shorter term (and to be honest, mostly pretty shitty!) residencies being in those interim years as we find our way around!

It means, I guess that I've lived in each for just over four and a half years (though 79 was just shy of 20 years). We're here for the foreseeable though - I'm not planning on moving again for a <i> long </i> time!John Meddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10547777949324509522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-1928569718080891232017-06-03T12:06:42.350+01:002017-06-03T12:06:42.350+01:00Congratulations John - may you be very happy in yo...Congratulations John - may you be very happy in your new home! <br />I never knew that about Spoons carpets and I feel strangely satisfied with this new piece of knowledge. (Plus it saves me having to venture into any for real.)<br />There's something satisfying about your last number sequence too. Some nice patterns in there, with the 20s and the 17s and 11 and 111. Perhaps a formula for a new carpet weave!<br />In answer to one of your questions - yes, milkmen still deliver real bottles! We have one - he drives the fastest milk-cart in the East.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.com
