Good morning girlies and burlies. <3 :-D

One good thing, hang out your washing cos it will dry quickly. You'll need a few more pegs to stop your smalls going-a-visiting though! ;-) :-0 :-D

As my one-month access to worldwide records ends on 1 September I have to catch up with the remaining wanderers in my family.

I've been in Australia, Canada, USA but struggled to find rellies in Argentina (I know they are there because I've exchanged emails) and in India (where lots where stationed during the eighteenth and nineteenth century and others visited during their time at sea).

One great uncle was an East African agent for the UK government and I have only found one trip when I know there are more.

OH looking for his wanderers as I write. :-S

It will be interesting to see whether my seafarers had a girl in every port!

Ann, Waitrose has its own delivery vans here - all the guys have been very friendly, by the way.

At the beginning of lockdown, M & S told me that it was using Ocado for delivery ..... but zilch in this area. Still not delivering here. i think they may have shot themselves in the foot during the last few months - talk about slow off the mark ... More like left behind at the starting line. :-S :-S :-S
