You're grandad ( on the left?) looks like a famous film star Maggie, but can't think who at the moment :?

The daffs are in a vase, got to be a little patriotic to the country I grew up in!

As far as welsh blood goes, with names like Jeavons, Jinks, Evans and Jones I should have some welsh ancestors. And I do, but suprisingly they're called Cleaton! We also have others like us who moved to Wales, rather than from it!

Cymru am byth!! :-)
