I did a lot of finding photos of places last year. It's great fun

I like this site for modern photos,

.............. and then googling to try to find older ones.


I really should get back to writing up my trees



I find it a bit hard to concentrate at the moment :-(

Linds,

That dog certainly knows 'which side her bread is buttered on' !!! :-D :-D

Hope little O is feeling better now but you are right, she does need to be referred to ENT to find out what the real problem is before she suffers any permanent damage!!

Morning all and thank you for breakfast Sylvs........maybe a B.E.L.T. would be in order for a chilly morning.

The sun is shining on the frost.....nice blue sky.....just rather cold......brrrrr


I've debated old or new photographs Sylvs and, when I can, I choose old ones (because it's more how my ancestors would remember the place) but, if all else fails, then new it is. :-D


I was really fortunate last night though....I looked for the name of the farm where my grandfather had been working on the 1891 census when he was 15 and actually found several good photos of it. Some of the other addresses I looked for no longer exist, so I just used a picture as near as possible to where they would have been.

Ah well....another brand new day.........and a lovely pile of ironing to face... :-D :-D

Ooooer.........I forgot to pop on this morning!


It's been like spring here today :-)

Linds...........what does the 'F' stand for, re Star :-S

Linda Report 3 Mar 2014 20:50

Gins I just re read my post and had a laugh!

Not that kind of F. It is sons partners initial he says are we going to F****'s and star runs to the door :-D

DIL took O to the Dr's this afternoon they checked her over said ear is still slightly inflamed and she has one tonsil larger than the other but that seemingly isn't unusual.

Oh and that it was "probably" her ear drum that burst when all the puss came out her ear :-|

They have at last referred her to the ENT at the children's hospital and not before time :-P

Good morning all :-)

Poor little O - It is good that they have now referred her to ENT, she needs to be properly 'looked at' to find out exactly what is going on !!

Boiled eggs and toast soldiers are just about done and there are bacon butties for anyone who wants them :-D

See you all later,

Morning all......and thank you for the eggs and soldiers Gins......took me right back to childhood!! :-D



Okay.....what was that noise at 2.45am?? It sounded like a tractor dragging a trailer without wheels, up the road at a very slow pace!

Was it the boiler? Nope.

Was it a burglar? Nope.

Whatever it was, it woke me up good and proper! :-|

Naturally, OH didn't hear a thing.........grrrrrrrr


Ah well, off to dust round the bedrooms......... :-D

It comes to us all! :-( I went through a stage of thanking Sylvia for things Cynthia had done (I'm over it now! twitch twitch ;-) :-D :-D )

Well, It's Pancake Day again and I just 'have' to make them. I have just managed to eat 3 and I am stuffed ! :-( It'sa good job I didn't have any tea first or I would not have had enough room :-0

I heard this monring ...................


one of our best friends, of the Island group that we visit .................. died very suddenly last night.

She's 78 or 79, had a "seizure" on Sunday morning, which turned our to be "an aortic dissection".

But she had been very healthy! This came out of the blue, for all of us :-(


I'm beginning to hate 2014!
