John and Ben, the second dream team. Riding hats off to John for organising and realising the great adventure. I’m hoping that, in his next genealogical exploration, he discovers a relative that had a horse stolen by a Moor, who he chased down through the French alps, into Spain and possibly on to North Africa somewhere. I’m in again for that trip – and happy to fabricate any historic documents in order to make it happen. I have the coffee, parchment and wobbly handwriting at the ready – just say the word!
