Apparently Ernest I was told by a lady in Bristol Register Office, I don't sound very welsh, she actually asked me if I was born in Wales, I said yes and she then asked, where do you live now, because by the sound of your accent you've been away from Wales for a long time. I was born here 43 years ago and never been away, how weird is that? Ok. see if this gives an idea of my name, Mor- vith How's that Ernest? M.

That's ok Trish, don't worry. No my Bassells are still giving me problems and the other half, the Durbins. Haven't been able to get their birth certs, but now I have managed to find a kind gentleman on one of the sites who is in Somerset and is looking for them for me. I'm sure they don't want to be found. M.

NOW NOW M, if it was sound aloud messages I would not hesitate but you must admit that it is difficult to put a lilting Welsh accent into written words look you. xx

Thank you all, I really love this site, especially when we're all on good terms. My renewal wasn't due until the 5th June, but thought I'd do it today and get it over with. Usual reason why I haven't been around a lot last four weeks or so, HEALTH, that old thing or should I say problems with it, but by 10th June, should be sorted and know where I am. Looking forward to all the fun, laughs, tears, etc with all you good friends for the next year. M.
