Words can't begin to express how grateful i am for all the help.
When you grow up hearing about how your grandmother got a postcard in the mail letting her know that her husband had died & knowing that she would never get to even visit the grave.This is the next best thing. I am going to frame & pass this picture around to all the family.Novocastrian really went above & beyond to help me out. A lifelong dream has been reached.
Once again thanks for the support & Novo; thanks man.
I am at a loss for more words at the moment.
Brian.

Arise Sir Novo!
Well, I know you're a republican like me, but a bit of ennoblement never hurt anybody for doing such a good deed. Well done chum.

Well done Pons Aelian! (If I remember correctly, or of course I may have congratulated on being born in Gateshead!)

I did, and I'll listen to that when SWMBO retires, right now my laptop is tuned to Radio 4 and playing through the Jambox, so she'd be bound to notice.
