The site is not a blog, but
rather a means for sharing family information such as family news,
births, deaths, activities, pictures,
achievements. The site relies on input from family members. It is
updated weekly usually on Saturday night.
We are in London with granddaughters Danielle and
Lior Ron for their batmitzvah trip. Yes, we know they
are both in their twenties but we never took them on a batmitzvah trip
and they insist that they should have one like the other
grandchildren.
We are having a wonderful time. The girls are absolutely enjoying their
first trip to London and it's a pleasure to see them so happy. We
treated them to a birthday dinner at a Michelin restaurant Pied a Terre
and had an 8 course tasting menus - for the vegan girls and for us.
Most of the tastings were delicious and a few only very good.
We are also happy to be with them and seeing them so enthusiastic
is an absolute delight. In a couple of days they return to Israel and
we'll spend a few more days in London and Dublin.
We were pleasantly surprised to receive a mail from
Bridget Burrows, the great granddaughter of Doreen's grand uncle
Yeina Glasser. We have had hardly any contact with this branch of the
family since the passing of Doreen's father's cousin Mervyn so we were
delighted to receive her mail which also included some updates to the Glasser family tree. Bridget also sent
an old family picture (see here.).
We hope to be able to meet with her during our London stay.
The position in Israel is disturbing and in our view
dangerous to the standing of Israel as a democratic state. There are
widespread demonstrations. Click for a picture of Doreen at a demonstration.
