Finally caved last week and installed Facebook. There's some businesses/organisations I deal with that only have a FB page. Decided to look up half siblings I haven't seen in decades and actually found them. Dithered for a couple of days before sending friend requests. 2/3 were accepted almost immediately! I had an exchange of msgs with my brother and feel so chuffed, happy in a funny kind of way I haven't felt for a long time. My nephews and nieces are adults! ADULTS!
