Wednesday 17th Hard to sleep in as our room was light by 4! I phoned my other aunts to plan our visits, but had to let Aunty Doreen know we wouldn't be able to get to Cornwall owing to the distance and the shortness of our stay in the UK. We all walked to the university gardens, coming back via the canal towpath, admiring the interesting long boats and gardens right to the water’s edge, picnic furniture ready for use. It was windy but mild.
After lunch, we'd just started to play a Bach cello/piano sonata when my 4th cousin and husband arrived, Derek and Shirley Owen. We looked at the family tree together + some old photos, having a nice chat over afternoon tea. They're about mum and dad’s age, with 3 children born from ’62-68! Derek used to work for the Bible Society as a book-binder. Picture below: Uncle Norman and Aunty Mary.
