my hubby's brother and sister on the other hand are still in the house they were born in, the house their father was born in, the house their grandparents moved into soon after they were married and they are the only family ever to live in the house.

My family moved once when I was young and from the age of 18, 8 times.
Think we will stay put now!

I have a relative who recently had his 94th birthday.
He still lives, as he always has, in the house where he was born.

Maggie - it is even worse as when we moved in here 30 years ago it was temporary until we found the house we wanted!

Moved out when I got married, and whilst we 'tried' to move a few times things fell thro because of chains ! etc etc.
