Hiya- Just thought I'd try and see if any old pals are still about - back in the days when we'd laugh so hard that tears made typing hard to read!

Yup - those days did exist when friends from far and wide would pop in and help each other, Laura, Buggs Murphy, Jean from Swansea, Lin in Sussex, Mo, oh far too many countries to remember.

If any of you remember me, feel free to give me a shout, would love to hear of your progress finding your rellies

Kind Regards
Jules ;-)

Hiya Ann, we hope to be passing your way if Son gets into Uni this year - its true what they say about why Wales id SO green! Good to 'see' you again

On our Tree we hit a wall until I found a very helpful Lady at Putney Vale Cemetery who opened up a huge Chapter and it felt like winning the Lottery to us.

Happy days to all

We are all occasionally asked to speak up by the hard of hearing!

Unfortunately, some of the things I say are rarely refreshing or unexpected.

And talking of 'refreshing', the farmer down the road decided this warm balmy weekend was a good time to spread his home-produced fertiliser.

Tea on the lawn anyone?
