After 22 years, it's been wonderful :)

Big thanks to all those who offered help and support :)

I managed to trace him via (I hope i'm allowed to mention it here) an ex-commando gunners site. Funnily enough, the mod is a great friend of my fathers and called him straight away. We were re-united less than 24 hours later and things are going great. Thanks again everyone :wub:

Wow!!!!

My Dad's father left the family when my Dad was 15, and he never saw him again - only after his father's death was he able to trace what had happened to him.

I am so glad you have been reunited! I hope you manage to create a good relationship in the years to come.

they say that your talents are inherited, so it isn't all together surprising, but a bit spooky eh!!!

You'll have to get him to join UKS and then we can all talk to him
