For attention of Mike Nichols

Hi Mike. I don't know how to or if there is a facility for sending a PM so this will have to do. A couple of days ago the random photo which appears when we log in here was the letter from Lord Asa to you. On it was your address so I finally was motivated to drop my younger sister an email to see if Sassafras was close to where she lives in Mathinna and mentioned your name and poultry farm etc. She came straight back with "Oh my god, I drove past it at the weekend!" Apparently it is just about 1.5 hours drive away and she goes over that way occasionally and knows your chicken sheds as she describes them. She has a lifestyle block and grows everything from chooks to peacocks, donkeys to horses. So if she knocks on your door you will know who she is. Her name is Jackie Roberts and has a drive time spot on the local radio. She was only 2 years old when my family left Keighley for down under in 1955 so she has no recollections of the town we grew up in. Cheers.
