Going to Paris next week... on the off-chance that anyone on here possesses famous French relatives I'll offer to have a look for them. Some idea of whereabouts they are might be handy, as searching all of it might take a while...

It's a lovely place, you'll love it. Make sure you buy a map. I've visited Jim Morrison there and Oscar Wilde, among others. Gwynne

I really ought to update it, but web time here is rationed, sorry! I came 219th out of 242 in the maths competition if anyone's interested. Didn't get time for Montparnasse but I did go to Pere Lachaise. In the absence of any specific requests, if anyone's related to Chopin, Moliere, Oscar Wilde or Sarah Bernhardt, I can send a photo...
