PS I did say I am a mongrel
Catherine Cookson was born about 2 miles from my house. I've met her on a couple of occasions and her husband, both now deceased.

My wife knew her quite well.

Tilly Trotter was one of her heroines in a couple of her novels. I've never read any of them so don't know what the signifcance of mentioning her is.

like Al said, I seen the movie,it was a complicated story like yours, that's why I jokingly asked if you was related to tilly trotter, but i guess if I got to 'splain it, it looses some of it's impact. have you ever eaten garlic bread?
