	I would say write first Marcus. A phone call out of the blue might not be appreciated. :-)

This side of the family hasn't been in touch for what reason over the years (as familys do!), and would love to get back in touch again. My question is - is it best to write OR phone the said cousin first? Advice please......! Thanks, Marcus
