Nice write up. Did you do it?

 

So, about this Forest of Dean connection...

 

Yup.

Some additional info from family. I didn't know she did some of the
initial translation work on the Wannsee Protocol, for example.
Incredible.

 

Nice write up. Is the house up for sale? <buys lottery ticket> ;-)

 

Sorry, no ;-)

 

Curses. There's a lovely view from Chateau Lady M.

 

See, she wasn't "Just a mother".

 

Quite, what a remarkable lady. Nice obit too TOG

 

Join the queue, like.

 

Exactly what I thought. Could explain a lot...

 

Daughter of a village bobby, eh?
What an interesting character your Ma was.

 

Vietnam, Iran and Lybia....
We should throw Tog into orange coveralls just in case he was turned.

 

That's very impressive.

 

An impressed life. Sounds like your old man's was as well.

 

First the elefantentreffen article, now an obituary. Do you ever write
anything without slathering it with references to world war 2?

 

gawd, she had a fascinating life

 

He admitted the other day that he imports Forest sheep from Ensors in
Cinderford. Difficult to let go of some traditions...

 

(The Older Gentleman) spewed forth:

Nice.

Any memoirs published, or anything like that?

 

Don't you find it a bit weird that the Murrays were stationed there and
not long afterwards those places all became war-torn shiteholes?
