It was great to meet up with family again and then we all realised that it had been 2 and 3 years respectively since some of us met and it felt like it was only yesterday. How amazing. It was 9 years ago that I set up the family meet up in the first place.
We aren't a close family for some historical reason the paths split perhaps three geneations back and whilst I am now in touch with all my 2nd cousins, many of my third and some out as far as 6th cousins we still aren't anxious to meet up more than every now and then - perhaps a family trait?
Whatever, it was great to meet and catch up with all tht has happened and the family history was good, some nice lectures and I bought myself a bargain book which was originally £30 and I got it for under £10. It is all about the reconstruction of the Cty of London after the Great Fire.
I enjoyed getting to the place early, parking up and wandering into town to have a cooked breakfast and a cup of tea. So much was on my plate that I lasted all day on it :-) It was nice to have a mug of Café tea again - I don't often drink tea but I enjoyed that.
