Default Gerund or infinitive

Morning to all,

Another question........Is there an easy simple way to explain when the gerund is used and when the infinitive??? Or is it just down to having to learn by heart the when and where.

Annie

Welcome, Anniebee.

Here's a nice source: verbs followed by gerunds and infinitives
