Although I am currently based in Brisbane, Australia, I have kept in regular contact for years past with a family friend, Mrs Gweneth Buchanan, a 100-year-old widow living alone at Slad Mill, Lansdown.
For several months now, her phone has not been answered and I have left messages on the answer service.
When I made my most recent call, I discovered that her phone number has now been disconnected.
I am anxious to know whether she has perhaps been taken into care or has died, but can find no relevant information through internet searches.
For the past few years Gweneth has been greatly assisted by a local friend whose first name only (Diana) is known to me.If anyone who has information about Mrs Buchanan please contact me at alawen@optusnet.com.au.
