Just as well you missed the storms Anne. I tend to catch things because I look at all of the boards (apart from Games and TLR) when I am on the lookout for new members who haven't come back to their threads. I got caught in the tail wind... :-D


You're always busy so take care of yourself.



Evelyn's thread continues...........and it really IS a case of where do we look next???


As I have said before, I think she was just dropped onto this planet in 1929. :-D


Hope you are all well...... Cx <3

I seem to have missed the "Storms" on the board - where did they happen.

I haven't seen any on the threads I inhabit

I too will keep my head down

Cynthia if I had more time I would be happy to help out - but I seem to find myself with very little free time - even though i dont tend to do overtime these days.

wonder where it all goes to

Take care all

I could say 'ditto' as well............I've been keeping my head down till the storms on the boards abated............ :-D


Like others, have been spending hours on Evelyn's thread.....I'm working on the Goddard-Fenwick connection - just to see if I can find anything. As with everyone else, constant brick walls....... :-(


Reece..........stay brave.......Evelyn has sent lots of love and (((hugs))). <3 <3 <3


Now I must go and look for a new gas cooker........... :-S


Take care all.....Cx <3

ditto Sylvia

Hi Sue, and everybody

We've had about 6 days of lovely, hot, sunny weather ............. too hot for May on a couple of days!! It's gradually cooled down as the week has gone by ...... today was a very pleasant 18/19C

I fear rain is forecast for Mother' Day on Sunday, though.


OH had Windows 8 loaded on his laptop a couple of days ago ................ much against my warnings that people were having difficulties. But he had to have it ......... he actually wanted some software for scanning slides, and the one that is available for download from the internet (at a cost!) requires Window 8.

Oh well!!



I've been missing in action on here, and other of my "nice" chatty threads .......................... there was some nastiness over the weekend on some threads, and I was afraid I might be followed around. I did not want to bring that on here.

Anyway, GR says they're trying to sort it all out. Fingers crossed!



and so here I am again :-D :-D :-D


Take care everyone

Dear friends,

Thank you all for your very kind words, prayers and thoughts for Simon, who, like his Dad, stays calm, optimistic and above all, stoical in the face of considerable pain which we hope will soon ease.

Your kindness is very much appreciated and I feel that I gain strength and support from you all.

Love,
Reece<3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Hi Everyone

Reece I am so sorry ,I am sending you lots of good thoughts and much love for your son .he sound very positive and that is good for him :-).

I have been busy of late searching for Evelyn's family,getting very despondent though as nothing is coming up .
We do not have enough info to find Robert and I don't think Diane was born with that name,I spent the other night searching a lot of births in India,I think it was the family search site .World FMP had nothing and neither did Ancestry.

Giving it a rest for a while it may help clear my mind :-S

The OH has his app at the Hospital on Thursday so up to the big smoke for that ...really love going up to Perth NOT!.

We are expecting a very big storm this afternoon so busy making sure the outdoor furnisher is all stable and won't blow around.

Really nice to see a few new members joining us as i have been a bit slack of late :-)

Sylvia so sorry to hear you have lost a dear friend ,your dau must also be upset too being her God father.
My love to all your family.


Will get back aging tonight <3

Suex :-D :-D :-D <3 <3 <3

Thinking of you, Reece.

oh dear


Bless you Reece ................. and every good wish to your son xxxxx


(((HUGS))) <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Oh bless you Reece..........what can one say......


Sending you ((((hugs)))) and much love. <3

Hello friends,

Just a few words this time - hope all goes well for your husband, Sally and sorry to hear of your friend Sylvia.

I have much sadness now because of our older son's very serious illness and the resulting chemotherapy treatment. He was diagnosed the day after I had agreed a completion date (29 May) and move. He insists that I should not change it but you can all imagine that that is exactly what I would like to do.

Meanwhile I carry on with packing and sorting, trying to match his wonderful optimism for the future.

Cynthia, what sterling work you are all doing looking for Evelyn's elusive Mother. Good luck with it.

Going now.

Love to you all

Reece<3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Hi all........long gaps on here again - everyone being busy no doubt.


Sorry about your friend Sylvs.....(((hugs))).



I've been busy with Evelyn's thread - it's up and running...or should I say galloping at the moment and I'm trying to keep up with it. Am still doing lots of work behind the scenes which is all very time consuming. Would love to see a good end result for all the hard work which has been put into it by so many lovely folk.


OH had some physio last week. They come to the house and are really nice ladies. Fortunately, he is quite stable at the moment but every little helps and he learned some new techniques to help keep his muscles flexible.


It's quite grey here today - hope we get some better weather soon......it's getting time to wash some curtains and do some spring cleaning.... :-D


Take care all.....Cx <3

Hi Sue, and everyone


Sallie ........ I hope that all goes well at that appointemnt for your husband. It must be very worrying for you. xxxx



Our very close friend, daughter's godfather, died last night, quietly and very peacefully.

He spent one night in Emergency, 4 nights in a 4 bed ward with 3 other old men, and 2 days in palliative care ........ the last being excellent, according to his wife. But he then went down very quickly.

Hi Sue, and everyone xxx

and a special Hi to Ramon



We had quite the weather change today .............. had to have lights on in rooms, turned the heating back on, windy, and had to wear rain gear

and .............................. every where is covered with pink snow :-D

The wind is blowing away all the pink petals from the cherry trees! :-D

The flowers are not lasting as long as they usually do ................ but the streets, grassy boulevards, sidewalks and gardens sure do look pretty all covered in the pink "snow :-D

Not too sure that car owners who leave their cars parked on the street are too happy with the petals sticking on the vehicles though



Our friend, daughter's GodF, was taken into Emergency yesterday ........ he's in a "temporary" bed while they find a palliative care bed for him.




take care everyone

Hello Ramon and welcome.

It may be better for you to post your query on the Genealogy Chat board to be honest. There are quite a few members who are good with that sort of query. Hope this helps..... :-D


So Ken, you're a campanologist are you? Interesting. We have bells at our church and quite a good team of youngsters who practice weekly. I absolutely love to hear church bells ringing.


Yes, Evelyn's thread is busy again and I am trying to consolidate it so that people are going over things unnecessarily. Not sure I'm succeeding though.. :-
I spent hours on it yesterday and was quite x-eyed by the time I'd finished........ :-S


Have been out with daughter today to look at a wedding fayre at a local church - was hoping to get ideas because I'm organising one at our church later in the year. Glad I went......I can now up my game - so to speak! :-D


Finished off by going to our favourite coffee shop and eating far too much........ :-(


When I went out, OH was watching Aliens for the umpteenth time. What a totally yukky film that is......can't see the fascination myself......... :-S



Anyway, off to do some searching for any of Evelyn's Goddard-Fenwick descendents.


Take care and love to all........Cx <3

I'm Colour blind - we would make a good pair of Bookends don't you think?
