Dear Sal

So sorry that your dad has lost his battle with this horrible illness. I know it's difficult and maybe hard to hear but it is a blessing that as you say it was "short and sweet". To know that your dear dad is not suffering must be of some comfort to you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

Is there any way a more secure firewall of some sort could be put in place to stop these scumbags registering?
