To absent friends. Especially remembering Gwen, whose anniversary is today. What a fun loving lady with a great sense of humour. I was lucky to meet her in Winchester. Remembering the good times. Gwyn

I am going out soon. Later, at lunch time, I shall raise my glass - to absent friends whose names are printed here and those who are in our hearts.

this is the time of the year when we all think of the special people who are now no longer with us, please join me to pray for Marlene who died on Saturday, and raise a glass to my Dad Derek and Mum Jean, as I loved them, so I miss them. and this site makes you think of all people who are on your family tree, who make you what you are today, the people we are decended from, those who we remember and those we never knew. Cheers everyone, hope you all have a great day tomorrow. Joy
