Yes, it's not interesting to everyone! I was worse, once I went to see my friend in Morriston, and she happened to live a stone's throw from all the places my Granddad's side came from, so I asked her if it'd be okay if we spent a day going round some of them and she was fine. The thing was, her Mum is a terribly organised person, and, unbeknown to me, then insisted on the three of them driving round them the weekend before so that my friend would know exactly where they were. And then it all ended up in an unlikely scenario of me meeting not just dead relatives but some long lost living ones! (I think my friend thought we had suddenly wound up on a reality TV show or something.)
(I did pay for her meal later, and then we went to the cinema and shopping the next day. But, yes. And she put up with me having to go to the (then) new Swansea Library. She has a good sense of humour, and of the absurd, but clearly is also a saint.)
My family tend to be the kind who throw things out all the time, so I do envy you some of those lovely bits and pieces you still have.
