The Fishmongers Daughter. A little information about my family. |

Who am I? I am just an ordinary person who had no great ambitions. I never thought about what was happening around me. When things went wrong I accepted responsibility. I had been told all through my formative years that I would never amount to anything. So I lived my life accordingly. Until the night in 1998, when the phone rang. A brother I had not seen or heard of for fifty years had suddenly appeared. The strange thing was, that I knew of this person, but not as my brother. I knew of him as the raido show host he had become. He never knew that I existed until shortly before we were put in touch with each other. Of course he wanted to know all about my life. He insisted I buy a computer so we could keep in touch on a more personal level than just over the phone. These two ideas of his has ended up with my writing an autobiography which has helped me to understand myself. The story has also helped me come to terms with many unresolved problems, and has made me realize I am not the person I thought I was. |

Morris Parry He was a loving person, who would help anyone that asked. He worked hard all his life, and unfortunately died early. He left us with a mystery, maybe because the past was too painful to talk about with my brother Glyn and I. We were never told that our youngest brother had been adopted . |
