Mandy Gage

Age: 31

Occupation Childminder

Born: "I was born in the City. I have lived in Gloucester nearly all my life."

High point of life here: "The main one I can think of is getting married and bringing up my two children."

Other high points: "My husband and I breed dogs, Cavalier King-Charles Spaniels. It can tie you down but we enjoy it. I like it here. I know where most of the shops are. I know the little alleyways to cut through. You don't have to walk miles to find different shops. There is so much history that you can show the children and you don't have to travel very far to see it."
