I rang them today to enquire about where somebody could be buried I asked where to write to ,the Lady that answered said perhaps I can help , she rang me back within 10 minutes with the name of the Cemetery and what part she was in , and even offered to send me a map to show how to find it .Thats what I call over and beyond the call of duty, what a lovely lady, I think she got embarassed when I kept thanking her .If only everybody were the same .

Thats great Valerie, congrats! Bet that gave you a 'lift' for the rest of the day! I 'googled' for the name of a mill where one of mine worked in mid 1800's and up came a site for a commercial vehicle company. So I plucked up the courage to phone them... and yes the mill was still there!.. I haven't visited it yet as it'll be a day trip, but hope to soon. Sue
