My avatar is actually my Welsh great grandmother Alice Rebecca Davies. I thought about having a cat as I have four to choose from but thought I would keep to the human family theme.

Cat person, garden lover and Welsh. It doesn't get any better than that! :D

Whereabouts in Wales was your g-grandmother from, by the way?

Alice was born in Llanllowell, Monmouthshire while others in the family were born in nearby places such as Usk, Trevethin, Pontnewynydd. All in Monmouthshire. Her family - parents, 4 siblings, an aunt and uncle with their 4 children emigrated to Queensland in 1882. Unfortunately her aunt and her youngest child died on the voyage out.
Alice married a Scotsman in Maryborough, Qld. and they and their family came to live in Victoria. Thus I am a Victorian.
 
Hi and welcome Lyn :) as you can see youv'e joined a light hearted bunch of extremely helpful people
 
Welcome. I reckon you, 3femmes and Doug should form a sub-group for getting together over coffee somewhere along the Geelong Road! I could send my daughter as a proxy, she works at Truganina.
