    That looks brilliant, and well done!

    I went last summer to try to find the grave, but couldn't, and gave up after over an hour. The cemetery is huge.

    Will try again soon - should be much easier now thanks to your efforts.

    When I heard they were going down to tidy it up I expected it to look a bit neater than before. I didn't expect it to look like a brand new grave. Fantastic job by all concerned.

    Am I correct in thinking that 15/20 years ago the supporters trust went down and did the sake thing or is that something else that exists only in my imagination?

    Gally thanks for that. Yes, would like a map as I'm intending to go again in August.

    Last time I went one of the groundsmen gave me a lift to nearby the area, but the undergrowth was dense and I just couldn't find it - left very frustrated!
