Hi, Sandie,

Yes, Jackie got it spot on:

a Hexagon has 3 More Sides than a Triangle

I was a bit short of imagination at that point!

We've talked on the phone and exchanged letters for a few months but this will be our first meeting. My dad's parents divorced when he was young, so learning about his Dad's side has always been difficult until now.

Hi all / anyone ?

Glad to hear that Dormouse and her mother are improving, thanks for passing that on Shimms.:))

So pleased you had an enjoyable family meal out Jackie,for you're dil b'day:)) Thinking of your brother, hope he has some more smiles for you on your next visit :)

Liz hun,
Know you're busy on your family tree, Ooh must be so exciting meeting a second cousin you've never met before.
I found 2 on GR, I knew of both of them., and am in contact with them via Email and phone . Terence is a lot older than me and moved away to Coventry many yrs ago, he's sent me photos of his gran and my grandfather who were bro and sis, but I did already have the one's of my g'father. Susan remembers coming to our house and us going to theirs ,but I don't remember she's 6 yrs older than me, so I may have only been 2 or 3. I'm the baby of all my cousins , my eldest cousin is 21 yrs older than me, and my second cousins are older!

Are any of the answers correct so far ?

Sandie.x

Edit..Sorry I must have been typing when you said Jackie's answer was correct Liz:)

Morning, Shimms. I'm fine, thanks - and looking forward to a 2 week break from school!

I must do some real family tree today as on Wednesday I'm going to visit a second cousin I've never met before - who has done loads of work on our family tree, but does not own a computer so it's all paperwork. I can't wait - and I think he's as excited as I am!

This is a very silly one but all I could think of at the moment!
