My First pm was from a lady who thought we had a match...that was nearly 3 years ago and we still keep in touch and she also phones me regularly.
The first person I spoke to on the boards was Ann up a Swiss Mountain and Steve (the Durham one) followed by Linda from Berkshire.

(2) My boy friend from the 1950s not heard from since 1955. I asked if he had an uncle named Stan from Lincolnshire,his reply from California was. Hello Elaine, have you still got the long blonde ponytail. My reply was still got long blonde ponytail... tinged with silver. I was so exited. Remember Susie Manterfield she helped me lots.
