Why we live where we do

Apart from  2 years as a £10 Pom in Australia, I've always lived in the City of my birth, Cardiff. My childhood home didn't have a garden, just a small backyard, but my grandfather had an allotment alongside the railway line and I spent a lot of time there, "helping" him.
After marriage, we moved house 3 times, always within about a mile of the previous house, always to a home with a larger garden and bigger garage. They were our priorities.
I played with a second home in West Wales for a few years but my heart is in Cardiff. I've lived in this house for 40 years and don't think I'll be moving soon. Too many new plans to dream up.

In a way it must be nice to live in a house for so long.  The times we say where has that gone, what happened to that.  Everytime we moved we'd have a massive clearout often getting rid of things we now regret.

I just move the clutter with me. Still trying to get rid of stuff.
