261. Stevehoward77 : Hi im looking for either or both of my biological parents. I was born in Devonport 3rd January 1977.
The only thing a know was while I was in hospital my crib had the surname Curry on it. The nurses called me Simon while I was there.
I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.
