My cousin, Anne, quite a bit older than me, is coming to stay overnight with us today. She lives in Lancashire and is the daughter of my Dad's older brother. We haven't had a huge amount to do with each other really, although we've always exchanged Christmas cards and have passed a sociable hour or two at family events, but it will be the first time she's stayed over.
James, Claire and Christina are coming to join us for dinner this evening. I thought it would be nice for them to meet her and for her to catch up with them.
The reason she's going to be over here, is that she's doing to a funeral in Alnwick tomorrow, so it really is a flying visit to us. But hopefully she will be able to shed some light on parts of the family tree that I'm stuck on!! She's already said that she'd like to see how far I've got. Could be an interesting evening...
