My excitement knows no bounds... is she related to Gary Gilmore, the cricketer, son of a cousin of mine?

I don't know. Any relation to 'Jack' Gilmore, a WWII veteran ? Nah, on reflection, unlikely. I recall 'Jack' Gilmore was born in Yorkshire. |

No idea - that branch of the family eludes me... too many branches in Australia, so Capitosinora is right on the nothing button in saying we don't belong here... Maybe he should come here and stand up in The Domain and preach his ball's skite.. be a first .. raver lynched in The Domain!! Jeez - my Uncle Ken had six kids and one of his grand-kids had twelve... even he couldn't remember all their names... with all the other groups in the clan, there's be more of 'us' than the 3% Indigenes.... tell 'em to find their own land.... 'we' 'traditionally own' by walking it and working it about 60% of the East Coast and Inland ... Malbadishu up to Bundie... if them were the rules, the Kaffirs would just have to take second place... What about MY land claim? I'm sure I could put it to better use. |
