Shall we have a go then Grannie Annie? If we all put the names of friends, then if anyone knows them we can pass on the information having asked the other person first.

It IS a small world and could work very well. I was dealing with a man on the telephone when I was at work (after having moved to Bristol from the South East) and he said something about not having a local accent. Turns out I went to school with his sister! We each could be living next door to someone that someone else wants to get in touch with. Mags xx

Oooh - just had a thought (I do occasionally) If anyone knows a Margaret and John Smith that used to live in Dunstable, Bedfordshire next door to Maggie and Phil (US!)Moved to Sutton, Surrey early 80's and from there to Liverpool. Eldest son Andrew would be about 30 now. A long shot, I know given the name and vague details. Would love to get in touch again - the address I've got is out of date. I've got lots more details but not sure I should put them all on here. Mags xx
