Gavin Hi Michele We love Abbotsbury. First visited several years ago and a couple had just opened a cafe in the old school. Dorset Apple Cake. Yum. The Swannery was established by Benedictine Monks who built a monastery at Abbotsbury during the 1040s. The monks farmed the swans to produce food for their lavish Dorset banquets. We're here till Thursday when we drive to Winchester for the afternoon than back to Southampton and fly home on Friday. Still researching the Coggans ... whovevdropped their middle name ... Colston.

Michele Sounds as if you are having a good time in Weymouth. One of my mum’s nieces lives in Weymouth. I visited her quite a few years ago. We went to the Abbotsbury Swanery, quite a nice place to spend a hour or two. When some of my other cousins visit me we often play UNO. It’s quite a go game to pass the time. Best Wishes, cousin Michele.

Michele Hall If you are still in the area the Watercress Steam railway is very nice. If you are near Basingstoke l recommend the Milestones Museum. It is in an aircraft hanger type of building. They have lots of exhibits from yesteryear. Have a look at their website. Make an enjoyable day out.

Carolyn Sounds interesting,stay safe and enjoy Love CAS xx

Nikki Brown Love it Gavin! Och aye the noo yer braw wee laddie

Suey You all look delicious!

Gavin You nailed it Julie. I only just turned 50. I'm still only in my 50s.

Julie & David Have a great celebratory trip. Doesn't seem that long ago that we attended your 50th Gav. Does that mean that we are getting old?
