Wanted to post this, but didn't know where - so here it is.

Through the wonders of the internet, I've found out that there's to be a get-together of a load of my cousins down near Brighton on Saturday.

We all share the same grandparents.

My son is driving me down to join them.

I haven't seen most of them for over 50 years !

And none of them since 1972.

I'm one of the 'younger' ones !

This is going to be good !

Wish me luck !

Thanks, Mountain Mist !

My sister & my daughter both wanted to come as well, but they've both got other family things that day.

Apparently it's been an annual event for the last 5 years, but I've only just become aware of it.

It seems they've been looking for my sister Janet & me for a while.

The catering is done by cousin Brenda at whose house we'll be meeting up.
