Dear Chris
Don't take those comments to heart. I saw absolutely nothing untoward in
your original message, just a genuine and understandable surprise at your
discovery. And it certainly wasn't you who dragged in WWI and II and
football matches. We all
refer to 'skeletons in cupboards' at some point during our research. Mine is
a serial bigamist, but that does not mean I either advocate or condemn his
actions - it just happened.

Good luck

Ian Rhodes
