Crikey, it's a g'day to read all about it!

Mrs Wood said: "It was a very emotional time for us all and so lovely to see everyone.
"They were waiting in line to read the Grimsby Telegraph, they found it fascinating!"
She was most excited to meet her great-niece Charlotte Mager, who was worried she wouldn't be able to understand the Grimsby accent.
Mrs Wood added: "We had a lovely time, it is a beautiful country with a fabulous lifestyle."
