Hi Valerie Someone mows the graveyard where my dads ashes are buried. Unfortunately Finchley is a huge cemetery, so it's beyond one person or even a small group of people. If I could find my family's graves I would tend them regularly and put flowers on them. AL

Thanks Valerie. When I was over there this morning I got so upset at the state of some of the graves. Some of them must have cost a fortune, yet they get no visitors and they must be someone's rellies. Mum was talking about my grandad's family who are buried over there and I thought their graves must be in the same condition so someone better do something about it - ie me! AL

I went there this morning to visit nan and grandad's grave as it's nan's birthday this week. I decided that I must go over there for a day to find the graves of a number of my other rellies who I know are buried over there. If anyone else wants me to look for any graves over there or would like to join me one day, please let me know. AL
