Leaves

The Silver Vixen was out first thing this morning so the Gorse Fox and Jasper were in charge of receiving the Ocado order and packing it away. That was followed by the usual office admin that he stores up for Thursdays.

The Gorse Fox returned to the family tree research. He was intrigued by some of the online trees that had been shared with him. Some were delightful and beautifully researched, others seemed to be random guesswork based on names that "looked right". The trouble is that the Gorse Fox needs to return to first principles in order to verify the new information. This has taken a significant chunk of the day.

Oh yes, the Gorse Fox mentioned yesterday that another cousin had made contact. This one, it turns out, lives in Hook (where we lived until 1990). Not only that, but he was working on the building of the Martin Grant estate, the other side of the road from our Charles Church estate. Amazing.
