I don't know why some women preferred being called Lottie when they have a nice name like Charlotte. My Grandmother was Beatrice but known as Beattie. :-(


What a miserable day it is to be sure.....dull and wet..... :-(


OH is in pain with a bad shoulder and neck today :-(



Glad to be the bearer of good tidings :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

It is for Mel's thread:

She called herself Lottie when she married in 1916 but 'could' have been a Charlotte?

Well, if she is the one I am .looking for she would be born around 1891 and have a father called Edward John Maney who, at some stage was a Theatrical Manager and he died before 1916.

Thanks Ginns.

According to the weather report on the TV news this evening .............. Tuesday, which is the day to work at the cabin, will be sunny up there.


It will also be about 9C during the day, dropping down to 2C at night



That means the area where the cabin is will quite possibly be freezing over night :-D


Thank goodness, we're staying in a hotel in town :-D



although it can be quite fun being up there when it is cold overnight ..........

........ we get the place warm with the wood stove during the evening, load up the stove just before bed, and shut the damper so it will burn slowly.

Even if no-one adds any wood during the night, the ashes are still hot enough in the morning to start the fire with only a little bit of kindling.


AND, the bed was cozy and warm!!

went downtown for retail therapy ................. bought some more tops from the store that is closing...........

.......... the most expensive one cost me just under $20 (ca £8), and that was a "this season's (fall/winter)" long sleeved turtle neck by the Liz Claiborne company ........ and should have been $60 :-D

Most of them ended up costing me around $5-6 each



What I would love to know is why I couldn't find any of these summer tops when I was out in the spring looking for some new white or beige or cream tops. The only ones I could find then were all ruffley and flow-ey ................... which is just so not me!

hi all
xx



it was a mainly a cloudy day today, sun kept trying to break through .............. but it only got up to just over 16C..... which is normal for the back end of September.
