What an exciting day you have had Dea......I DO hope you don't get anymore phone calls from him.
Gins.....click on Search above and then on Search photos and media. You can enter the name of someone in your tree to see if anyone else has a photo of them.
Good idea in theory but if, for example, you put in Mary Ann Jones, you will get a lot of hits and versions of the name. GR have taken the photos along with the captions next to them eg. Mary at Skegness......Mary on back row.....Mary Ann the bridesmaid etc.
Also, most of the pictures are pixilated due to the privacy thing so that's no help either. You could be looking at Gunga Din for all you know.
Had quite a good day really. Dentist was fine - no probs there. Picked up grandchildren who are in nagging mode for their parents to get a dog. We've all been there I'm sure!
Going for a browse....~~~~

Been there Cynths - I don't think it adds anything !!
As you say - they are all 'pixilated' so you can't see anything !
Plus which, they give no details re timeline or place!
At least when you put up a person and then click on search trees - It will give you connections and who has photo's etc of 'your' person !!
Far more useful !

Have a doctor's appointment this afternoon .............. to get the result of that ECG that I had a couple of weeks ago.
see you all later

Dea
I haven't heard of any one threaten that they will continue phoning!
that's weird
PLUS, the fact that they have your address.
Many people who registered on that similar "don not call" programme in Canada .......... found that they got even more calls :-S

Hope the results go well Sylvs !!

I have Dea...they phoned wanting JB (credit card Co)
Long story short, I told them 'not interested'.....he, the north east guy, said he would phone back, after I told him not to bother....many times, he said he ‘would’
And, his colleuge (Asian guy) did indeed phone back. When I told him what had happened earlier, he was very apologetic and referred me to the TPS...with which I was already registered
.........hmm

Message for all - but for Dea mainly!
Dea - I am not subscribing to GR again. My subs run out on Friday - so not sure when I will be 'cut off'.
I know that most of you go onto FB - so will see you all there - but Dea - I will miss our little chats. PLEASE come onto FB more cos I will miss you if you dont!
I will PM you my email address - in case you want to get in touch other than on FB - and if any of you are staying on here then I really would appreciate any updates on the thread http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1270799
IF there are any updates from Rhoda - that is - I am NOT holding my breath!!!!
Thank you to everyone on here who has given me sooooo much help in the past with my family queries - it was - and still is - very much appreciated! <3 I certainly could not have done it without your help!!! I will print off the threads that gave me info over the next few days so that all is not lost - just in case I need to refer back!
I will miss the wonderful breakfasts/brunches and lunches- but then I am very often so very late that I eat on my own!! - and I will miss the humour of you all [oh dear - I am wondering if I am doing the right thing now!!!] and the support that you have given me in times of dark and doubt :-S
You are all WONDERFUL! and dont you EVER forget it.
With love,
Elaine xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thump.
ARRRGGGHHH!
Flippin' tree......walked straight into it.....can't see yer hand in front of yer face in Sylvs garden this morning.
Thank you for breakfast Sylvs......I may have to eat one-handed as I am nursing a nasty cut from that tree.... ;-)
Laines! Sure you're doing the right thing? Just look at the spread Sylvs has laid out for us.............oh well......see you on the other side. ~~~~
Meanwhile, I am waiting for a member to get back to me from here. She posted a message about 10 days ago re a family which is connected by marriage to my maternal side.
She hasn't been back to see the help given by GB and neither has she opened the message I sent her :-(
Definitely one of those frustrating cases.......grrrrrrrrrr :-|
Read some more of my dad's memoirs yesterday.
"Thursday, 10th December 1935. This is the day of the Abdication. King Edward VIII renounces throne for Mrs Simpson. Caused much anxiety for a week. Country disappointed because it has upset trade. Duke of York next king. Personal opinion of the crisis kept personal! "
Off to the council dump with some more bits and pieces this morning. We have this thing about not leaving a lot of sorting out for our kids to do when we are no longer here. So.... no more hoarding for us and definitely clearing out unwanted stuff. :-D
~~~~~

Glad all went well with your tests Sylvs........ <3

Good morning all!
Nearly missed my breakfast as grandson arrived early and I didn't have time to call in ;-)
Thank you for the lovely breakfast Sylvs <3
Sorry you are leaving us Laines - I will look in on the other side 'occasionally' but have sent you my e-mail as well so contact me for a 'chat' anytime !
I had that problem with pasting onto here several months ago Ginns - I had to resort to using the 'Control V' comand on the keyboard - I don't know why it happens but it was not my mouse!
Hope this works for you too.
