I hope it doesn’t mean that the good weather will run out!

Can't believe it's April tomorrow, a quarter of the year gone already.

You only need to stay there till midday LM, it's only applicable till noon. Just watch out for spaghetti falling from the trees.

Like the humour.

My grandson  now in Australia  said it has rained every day since he arrived.

A really beautiful warm, sunny day here in Devon again.  We were able to sit outside drinking our coffee after lunch and believe that the rest of this week will be just as warm, if not warmer.   Even the church should be warmish tonight for choir practice.  Meal will be an exotic salad consisting of burrata, tomatoes, herbs and toasted pine nuts amongst other delicious things, accompanied with new potatoes boiled with mint, which is growing already in our herb patch.  Birds and bees are going crazy!  May it long continue, though we have a lot of pots which now need watering (not my job  ).

i ate lunch outside in sisters garden.

local radio says it will be lovely all week .

im working frantically on everyone's updates before my ancestry subs plus pro tools runs out on the 3rd

im seeing the friend whose African grandfather i  investigated.

his cousin recently tested and it turns out they are not full cousins they share matches on the welsh grandmmotherd side but no mutuals from the grandfather also the ethnicity leans towards his mother being the daughter of the lodger from ghana .more than the husband sailor from sierre leone 

which also leads me to conclude that the autism in the family comes from the welsh side .

so back to drawing board for the real grandfather ...most matches have small trees some are located in ghana surnames are typically ghanaien & one of the distant matches ( a younger generation) even has the same surname as the lodger ..

im not sure how to break it to him
