I can't ever imagine you being naughty Dea............. ;-)


You're right about flu though. When I was about 7, my parents and I all had it at once. None of us was really able to do anything and the lovely neighbour came in to see to us and help out bless her.

That's once reason why I like to have the flu jab - don't want to risk being that ill again.... :-(

Daughter tells me that the Queen is poorly - gastro enteritis....now that is horrid! Hope she gets better quickly.

Oh Gins Had the flu years ago don't ever want it again felt like I had been dragged through a hedge backwards as we say here. Take care and enjoy the gang

Heard earlier that a 4 year old boy had taken ill at nursery today and has since died. Nursery is local (ish). Not heard cause of death yet.

In laws have been ill projectile vomiting think its food poisoning. Worrying as they are both 85.

Your poor inlaws Linds.... :-(

Sounds like they have something similar to the Queen. It's an awful thing to have at any age but 85 is worrying. Hope they soon recover.


Nearly bedtime for me........OH is watching one stupid film. He does enjoy stupid films at times :-S It's a science fiction thing with monsters with loads of arms and rubbish like that. It's kept him quiet though..... :-S


Night night all......

I didn't say ........

...... but grandson had his first ever bout of vomiting last weekend ......... quite amazing as he will be 3 in a few days, but true.


He was staying with his aunt when it began, daughter and husband had to go get him ........ and it continued for most of the night. He had one episode of projectile vomiting.


By Sunday morning, he had stopped, but was a little under the weather.


Daughter said he couldn't tell his aunt, or them, what was wrong because he'd never had it before!


poor little kid!

Good morning Sylvs and everyone :-D

Thank you for breakfast - croissants with lots of butter will be wonderful :-)


Poor little grandson of yours Sylvs......I remember being on alert when mine were small ..... the words 'pyloric stenosis' were being bandied around and scared the daylights out of me. Rarely hear it now.


A beautiful morning........must go and do some washing......;-)

Your little un too Sylv, no doubt he will recover quickly at that age...bless

Using Emerald Ancestors I have found my GF's birth and death records and my GGF's wedding record and my GGF's birth record.

Yet in relatively recent times I cannot find my Fathers birth record although I know his ancestry.

Samuel Irvine was born 15/10/1918 Osborne street Belfast
Son of Samuel Irvine and Sarah Irvine nee McLarnon
