  28. condolences to my cousins I remember vacations in the old house on the farm with aunty and uncle. that was over 50 years ago. Catching up at grandmas with them. how times have changed all the kids would be laid out across the back of the Humber in a makeshift mobile bed as they went back to the farm, from grandmas at some late hour. Couldn’t do it these days. It’s a sad day for you guys thoughts are with you. Graham
