Hi Paul /Colin
I'm still trying to get the hang of this board, so I hope I am replying in the right place
Thank you very much for the photo of grandpa and grandma, he looks a lot like my father.
I still have to work ( no pension) so I am busy during the week and sometimes Saturdays with my little internet and IT network support company.
Right now i am fixing up my house as it is a mess and needs a face lift
ALL my children live me, but my son and his wife are going to emigrate to UK next June.
there is no future here for young people and this is no longer a good place to bring up children.
Both will have their Masters degrees by then and I don't think they will have any problem working in London
You cannot believe how exited we are finding family after previously fruitlessly trying without any success. Our side of the family tree is just about complete, as it is just us here
My daughter in law's roots are in Ireland but she did not have much success in finding her Irish relatives, on her fathers side.. M.S. lives in Singapore and he looks after Pacific Rim for his company . Her sister recently moved to London with her partner and they both have found nice jobs.
Will catch up with you on all the news and pictures.. So excited to have found you
