    Default Pleased as punch and over the Moon

    Well, today was a big surprise getting an email from my "rude" cousin in Tadworth! I was right with all the information I had gathered and confirmed and sent to my cousin (along with the photos). She sounds nice and he doesn't sound too bad. I am so excited that I have finally closed the circle on my dad's siblings. The daughter had read the letter I sent him, but I must have had the wrong address for her and must now email her to try and get it from her old address or it will be returned to me. Oh dear! I'm just stupid from glee!

    She has filled in the blanks pretty well and I hope that we will have a long friendship.

    Well done Vanessa, you sure do deserve this one and I am really


    Strange how the rude one was nice and the nice one was rude.

    Thanks Jan - It has been difficult with so little information to go on! I have even amazed myself on this one

    Mutley - You are so right about how strange it is that who we think may be rude often are the nicest! I think my other cousin is not only rude but cruel but I obviously have a better life.

    Thanks to everyone who have somehow helped me over my huge hurdles

    So pleased for you Vanessa! I know what it is like when you are stuck with so little to go on and then suddenly with a little help, all falls into place. Not only the moon, but the stars as well! Brilliant!

    Well done Vanessa!

    It's great when you can finally dot the "i"s and cross the "t"s and tidy everything up!

    I presume it has been a hard slog from other replies...!
