Hello all,you mat or not know that after 40 years searching all over the world,I finally found my older brother in Belgium.

Well,tomorrow I am sailing on the overnight ferry to Zebrugge to surprise him on his birthday. His children have conspired with me to keep it quiet and are picking me up at the ferry terminal Saturday morning.

I made him a lovely colourful patchwork quilt for him to use at siesta time,as sadly he is currently undergoing aggresive treatment for bowel cancer,which insidently,is what spurred me on to visit at last.

Please wish me luck,I have never travelled so far all on my own and am
a tad nervous.

Will update you all next week when I return. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
