Thanks for those replies, yes I agree that I could find something special but what I wanted to say in my original posting which somehow got edited don't know why ( probably because I am computer thick) was that this lady was supposedly told of my existence when I first contacted my natural mother. I was told then by my natural mother that she had no interest in me what so ever. However, recent card states she did not even know about me until mother's death. Natural mother has proved to be a perverter of the truth being ten years older than she said she was and she told lies on her second marriage cert. which stated she was a spinster etc and much more. My bad experience with half brother makes me wary. Thought I might write first and put my view point. She must have got my address from Nat. Mother's husband who has sent me a Christmas card since mother's death. We did not get one this year so I can only assume that he must have died too. Got to say when I first found natural mother her husband who is no relation what so ever was over the moon and made me really welcome. She on the other hand, denied all knowledge until I confronted her with irrefutable evidence she then back peddled and went for the sympathy vote. I was pleased to have found her at first but then ended up disliking her although I never fell out with her. I once asked her why she had abandoned me as a baby and she had been drinking at the time. She replied that I was spoiling her life. How true that must have been. I was her first born and she was married to my father at the time. They divorced after her repeated affairs with other men.Words came back to haunt me - Grandma on my dad's side, who brought me up, said when I indicated that I might find mother one day, ' I hope you never find her, she is a vicious self centered woman who will cause you nothing but trouble. Her son my half brother, certainly did.
