I am Rachel - a Dorset girl at heart, who is about to turn 40.
Lived in Spain, Gibraltar, Malta and Canada, Now living with my fiancé in lovely Cardiff. Getting married next September.
I am a total Geek and absolute cat slave. I have two beautiful Bengals. I am a bit shy in person, but online I am pretty open with my opinions and love to help wherever I can.
I transitioned back in 2003, and following my op in 2005, have been mostly happy ever since. I am not 'stealth' but I don't shout it from the rooftops either. I have this approach that if someone asks, then I tell them. Not many horror stories because of this so far.
Am now a student (and housewife I guess lol), having given up work in January to have a lung removed due to the nasty old cancer. Am 100% free of it now, and to find the silver lining; it was while bed-bound in recovery that I met my soon to be Husband.
Thats me for now.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I have to say I have not been an active member of any TG online communities since I had my op. I don't really know why, but I seemed to just drift away.
I guess I felt I was done and dusted, of course now I realise that may never be the case.
A friend linked me here with reference to the voice app recorder thingy. I have downloaded and am going to try it.
I left out voice therapy as I do get by most of the time (and many guys have commented on how sexy a husky voice I have). I am still rather insecure about the way I sound. Having maintained my 'proper english' way of speaking helps.
Anyhows now I am to be married I am going to fiddle with the voice and see what I can do to realise my potential :)
- I shall be asking questions galore I think (I have a few ongoing things that perhaps here is a good place to seek answers) - after all there are not many other areas on the net where one can discuss things like facial hair and dilation lol
see y'alls
