16 for me, if I include 3 different homes as a student in Wales.Other than that, I never moved at all until my 20s. then I got married and OH's job took us to various locations. My parents lived in the same house from 1936 to 2006.

The strange thing is that if people were tracking me in later census, I have always been in UK, yet I have lived abroad at 3 different locations inbetween.

Julia, it's nice to know that someone else has beat me lol...I think the 6th dish went when we gave away a huge amount of glass ware 20 odd years ago, but I'm keeping the 2 big trifle bowls that were my grandmothers, even though they never get used now.

I can beat you there Rose. 18 times in 43 years, and non because the OH was in the forces. I'll have the 5 trifle dishes please. Did you drop the other one. LOLOL

Twice in 49 years. That's probably the reason why I have hoarded so much rubbish!

moved house?

I was just working it out, from when I was born, this one coming will be the 15th. Which would average out at about once every 3 and a half years :(
