  • Hi there andrew. Was just feeling nostalgic and wandering round the internet trying out names from the past and there you were! I've been divorced for 24 years and have three delightful daughters aged 34 31 and 29 plus a gorgeous granddaughter and a grandson expected in July. I live in London two daughters have moved to Nottingham and Brighton the third is still local. I still get to Rochdale. My mum is 87 and still going strong and both my brothers and my sister live up there they've all moved back after moving away. I have a partner Bob who lives in Nottingham. We're both retired now so able to spend more time together. Hard to believe we're both 64 it doesn't seem that long since we were travelling home on the 19 bus!

    I do hope Australia has been kind to you. I was once there briefly when we landed at Sydney Airport enroute from Japan where daughter Kate was then living, to New Zealand where Bob's son is still living.
