Hello - this is an interesting thread! I'm 50 bla bla, been married to Patrick an accountant for 36 years, have one son who is a graphic designer and very talented (also I am biased!) No grandchildren yet, but son has black cocker spaniel bitch who knows me as Granny!!! I am a funeral director (but dont let that put you off!!) I have been trying to find some info on my family for about 2 years or so, and it's proving harder to find nearer relations than those in the Doomsday Book! We live in Nottingham, but I originally hail from the Land of the Red Dragon - Welsh and proud of it! Jacqui Etches

Hi everyone Im Sue, I'm 41 and I was born and brought up in Milford, Surrey. Lived around that area most of my life until divorce in 2000 when I moved to Havant in Hampshire. Met Chris in 2001 and we married in April of this year. We have one daughter Eleanor (Ellie) who would have been almost 15months now, but sadly passed away aged 27days. I work as a travel agent 3 1/2 days a week.My hobbies are reading, cooking, cross stitch and genealogy. My house is a work in progress with lots still to be done, so although I wouldnt call it a hobby, it takes up a lot of time! Sue
