Seems an odd thing to be happening, leaving her children behind....

Perhaps that's where Leslie got his wanderlust from?!!
No, I didn’t know. The Melhuish family had boats. They had fishing fleets.

I think it’s Edith’s fil, Samuel’s father, who is supposed to have had a parallel family in the Faroe Islands.

I’m thinking this offer to help might send me even loopier than I am already.
