Yep, love them. Even found one relly in a cemetary in an area where he shouldn't have been just by being curious. Really must remember to wear waterproof shoes though, usually end up with soaking wet feet.

Have wondered whose buried in a small village church near where I live for years. Have since found that OH GG-Grandfather was living in the village in 1901 Census and died in 1907. Going to take a look and see if we can find his grave next week. Joy

I often have a mooch round local cemetaries. Some I know is ok for taking my dog for a walk in - others I steer clear of with him! I like reading all the details on the headstones that are still legible. And its good to think people are still remembering the dead centuries later.
