I Learned Something New Today

Now, I realise that this is going to probably be a be a bit mental to most people. In fact I’m flabbergasted myself. lol!

Today I learned my grandfathers christian name.

I’m not joking.

We all did actually.

As they lowered him into the ground I caught sight of the plaque adorning his coffin. I leaned forward following it with my eyes into the ground. & I thought I was seeing things. Then when they put the little marker beside the grave there it was.

& we went for tea, there I told my mother who didn’t know either, & my sister, who also didn’t have a clue.

So here we are. Me at forty & my sister at forty-four learning our grandfathers name for the first time. & my mother learning her own fathers name for the [b]FIRST TIME!!![/b]

Harold. His name was Harold. We had always assumed Henry. Who wouldn’t with him going by Harry?

I’m amazed actually 😂😂😂
