Just in case you have an accident please make sure you save all these replies onto a file ,as even though I have the patience of a saint, I would be a broken woman if I had to look it up again !

To tell you the truth I enjoy chasing all the spelling mistakes and at least your Mum is interested in the results ! Great that Andrew has responded too, well done you for persevering with us !

My mum, who's closing in on 80 and in the middle of some gruelling treatment herself (but expected to beat it), gets a huge kick out of it too, so I know how it feels. I particlarly enjoyed telling her that I'd found out that her great-grandmother was a Hoare. Then I learned that it's pronounced Oar. ;)

I only wish I'd known how to do all this before my dad died.

Best wishes to your mum, too.

Hey you are one lucky bunny, and nice to know that Andrew is helping, some people spend years looking. I wonder if there are any photos ?

Now all I have to do is go and put all the spelling mistakes into the corrections box!

I know most of us don't look at Success Stories regularly (and recently so many are just praise for GR when it hasn't done anything ...).

Kelly has put a lovely thank you there (27 March) for all of us who helped her out in this thread.
