A big thank you.
Thank you Pam and Ron,It is so nice to see lots of the shots and to see lots of the places the TV has not taken photos of.My daughter and Grandson live about 5 miles to the east of Stratford....so it made me feel closer to them.I doubt that I will ever get back to the UK again ,so it was especially poignant for me....a BIG THANK YOU!!!!!
