    My cousin is living and working in Australia at the moment and took this superb photo of Bottle-nosed Dolphins surfing, which she put up on Facebook, love it.

    Louise is equally as lucky.

    I've also got a good friend in Tasmania and another near the Black Forest, but having someone there and getting there are different things altogether.

    You could maybe 'adopt' me as a cousin then?

    Now you're boasting!

    Maybe I need to go back several generations - way back to the mid 1800s, then I could find someone's cousin who has descendants somewhere interesting, and write to them as their long-lost relative?

    LOL - I've googled our family names a few times (the surname is not very common) and quite a few seem to have moved to the US, and there's one in Portugal (amongst other places), maybe I should do that :-)
