The Cromwell woman is pretty convincing. Jack is my all-time favorite serial killer, and in some respects it's nice to not know who he is. If we knew his name, the mystique would be gone. Sickert was certainly weird.

I'd take the job in a minute, though the latest crew has become a bunch of civic-minded twats. I'd sit i the palace all day and let people do stuff for me. I found an old copy of Lord Russell's book on Queen Caroline--The Unhappy Queen-- today at the library bookstore. I didn't get it, but I think I will tomorrow.
There was an article today on David. I'm not sure where I picked it up. Maybe the BBC. It was about the TV show. Apparently David went to a hypnotist about some addiction, and it's assumed it was alcohol. I'd say it was more interesting than that. Like leather clad women with whips and clamps. I don't think Mrs. Simpson was into that kind of behavior. I'm sure though that she had an accute talent for degradition. I don't think they had much of a sex life.
BTW, I talked to my badad tonight. He knew Mao back in the post-war 1940s. He told me tonight that both he and Chou En Lai traveled with at least 4 women each. I don't think David did that. The poor guy could hardly handle one--at least after your rmother got through with him.

Ah...the case has Walter Sickert's DNA all over it according to that Patricia Cornwell woman, so I'm told. Besides poor old Thomas was a bit of a short arse he'd have had to carry a step ladder about with him. Would have been too conspicuous. He did steal lots of children and send them to Canada though.

You could ask why Barnardo's is staffed with lying SOBs.
As an alternative, you could threaten to blackmail them with incontrovertable proof that Dr. Barnardo was Jack the Ripper.
On a sidenote, what' thsi about your putative father and the hypnotist? Of al lthe thigns he was, I wouldn't have pegged him as a drunk, at least not until he married the love of his life.

` I've posted this everywhere, so why not here.
I received another weaselly letter from Campbell Hooper, Barnardo's lawyers, on Thursday They object to my use of the word veracity (as in lack of) Perhaps someone can help me out with another term to use when one social worker within an organization tells you one thing and then another social worker from the same organization tell you something completely different? What's the polite way of questioning that?
Well at least I Barnardo's seem to be refusing to comment at all on what I have said in a letter to its solicitor, re my father's family. Usually if Barnardo's know nothing on a particular issue there is a swift denial of all knowledge, I have to take that as affirmative, along with its offer to cooperate with an Adoption Support Agency of my choice. In making that offer it implicitly acknowledges that the file that it last year claimed to be complete, can not possibly be so if it has other information.
Why do people who would like to claim that they are 'professionals' have to play these stupid games? Particularly over things that happened 50 + years ago
Prior to the coming in to force of the Legitimacy Act 1959, Affiliation proceedings were heard in open court and reported by newspapers, so it is hardly that Barnardos are protecting some great secret. Particularly given the speculation that I have already passed on via Campbell Hooper its solicitors. All they would be doing is saving me some research at Colindale or the top floor of Romford library, where appropriate newspapers still exist. And perhaps they could then see that the whole thing is handled with some care and sensitivity. But in my experience Barnardo's Family Connections Project http://www.barnardos.org.uk/familyconnections.htm is much more in the business of protecting the Barnardo's corporate backside.
As for those already found, apart from my alleged father's family from his his later marriage and the family of my brother who died, the rest all keep in touch at least. We tend to see each other at least once a year. The Germans, I keep in touch with via the internet. So I guess I can't have done all that much wrong so far.
