Thanks Meryl
We haven't decided whether to tell Hyacinth or not. I don't know if she
would recover from the shock. If she ever found out that his twin brother,
Jacob, was transported to NSW as well it would probably finish her off!
I've heard of skeletons in the cupboard but TWIN skeletons!!!!
I wonder if any other twins were transported. Maybe a one and only record.
