As I stated up thread, I continue to learn something new almost each and every day.......

My grandfather's ancestors on my mother's side of the family came from Jersey. And I just happen to resemble my Mom's dad quite closely.

Therefore, I would love to visit Jersey some fine day. Perhaps after a sojourn to the London area where a number of fine ales, porters and stouts will be enjoyed in tandem with visits to view classic British jet and turboprop airliners.....
