GrandparentsMy awesome grandad flew in Wellingtons in the war. Damn, those shortages were terrible. Tell us about brilliant-stroke-rubbish grandparents.

I found out not so long ago one of my great-grandad's on my dad's side had an engineering workshop in east London around the turn of the (last!) century. He built some of the first electric cars (well, golf buggies by today's standard really). I'd love to know more about it, but there's no evidence like you have.

lovely..Good to have a permanent souvenir like that. FWIW, when we sailed past after my brother's mid-river wedding, everyone on board ran over to wave..
