A few days ago a cousin and myself were discussing our grandparents and I showed her my only picture of our Nan. She hadn't got any of her and I told her I had none of our grandad. She has promised now to give me a copy of her picture and I have given her a copy of mine. Its strange that I remember things my grandad did and said but not what her looked like. I feel quite guilty about this as on the other side of the tree I remember exactly what my Nan and her parents looked like and although my grandad passed away a few months before I was born I have several pictures of him. I am determined my children should know all about them all so they in turn can pass it all on to their children and grandchildren and so on. |

Why did someone RR this??!!!! It was a perfectly acceptable post making reference to not being able to remember how a grandparent looked! I was about to add before that I only met one of my grandparent's, but am lucky to have photo's. |

Why would a post about me forgetting what my grandad looked like be rr'd. This site is getting a joke n certainly not worth £20 (or there abouts) subs I have just paid. 36 ppl viewed the post and saw nothing wrong. Whoever is rr'ing needs to get a life. I put up a very poininant post with nothing offensive in it at all. Sad this site as come to this :( |

Hopefully it will be restored. I can't imagine there was anything wrong with it. Somebody with a sad boring life if they get their excitement from RRing posts for the fun of it. |

If I am reading that right Bob..I see many posts about members missing their Mothers and putting up birthdays when she would have been 95 or whatever. |

Thank you Susan. Im posting from my phone so have not copied it. I feel confident genes will see nothing wrong and re instate it tomorrow.

I have seen a few posts tonite and seen its been rr and everyones comments saying it was fine like the joke they cant all be wrong im sure the joke was fine . |
