Margaret if it said 20th March that is despatch date from them so you have to give it a day or so for post.

dont you just love families. My Great Grandfather was an inmate of the Newcastle Upon Tyne City Lunatic asylum, and I wasnt sure about breaking that news to my mam and auntie but i think they took it well. My Auntie can remember that she was told her granda was in hospital not well. I still have to find out why though.
