There isn’t much news to speak of - so I thought I would add a story about how our website facilitated renewed contact between some long lost relatives.

I had an unexpected call last weekend from a chap in Australia who wondered if I knew of his uncle - he apparently used to live in the village. The nephew (in Australia) had found my details through the website! I couldn’t help him - having only been here 7 years - but I thought I might know someone who did! - I rang around a few contacts in the village only to discover that said uncle still lives in the village and I walk past his house almost every day! - I stopped by, relayed that his nephew wanted to get in touch, and picked up a telephone number to email to his nephew. I understand that they have now made contact and will be meeting up later in the year!
