We had great fun, great fun doing it.
I can always remember when she found Caesar's marriage certificate in Katherine House - you have to be very quiet, very quiet - and we went our separate ways, and I think I was searching something like 1842 through the records of Fitzgerald's, and Barb said "I'll do the next year up" and so she went and I stayed where I was, and the next minute all I could hear was this patter of feet and she was going "Yeah!" and everybody was staring - we went out and had a drink and celebrated then.
We'd actually found the connection to Africa, it had actually got 'born Sierra Leone'. Yes, brilliant one!
