	Well don't do it again Gins! Honestly, some people! There you are Sylvs......I'm CLASSIC! The word classic means something that is a perfect example of a particular style, something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality. So there :-P :-P :-D

	It's great to see you are on the mend Sylvia After careful consideration I have decided not to renew my membership on this site. I no longer find it value for money and although my subs are low with the traffic on the boards slowed to snail pace can't see the point. Also today I saw that GR posted on their Facebook page encouraging lookups to be done there( this really grates with me because members have to have a standard subscription to post on here). So if they are doing lookups over there then no need to pay subs to help. Also, real life is extremely busy. So this is my last week. Builders have finally finished so it's massive clean up campaign now, so any tips Cyns would be appreciated.

	Sorry to hear that Toots but I understand! I've been ahving doubts myself about how good this site is ................. look-ups on here have greatly decreased since the changes were brought in, and I fear a lot of people have left We will miss you s xx

	Tooty, Very sorry to hear that you are leaving us. Cyn, I have yet to hold the latest addition to my family tree but Mrs J was there like a shot within hours of her birth. I felt that it would be better to hang back a bit ,after all the poor mite had probably had enough trauma for one day. I am as you might imagine chuffed to bits to be a great grandfather, in my wildest dreams that is something I never expected to be. My daughter, Nanna Anna, as she is now to be known, called in here this afternoon to see if I would like to go and visit but to be truthful I had only just got back home and I was hot and sweaty so I declined. I have a really cute photograph of the nipper taken when she was just 40 minutes old and I will post this as my GR image for the next few hours so you can see what Lexi looks like. In all probability I will go and see her sometime tomorrow.
	Researching: Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

	C'mon gt.granddad.....time to stop putting it off. Lexi won't bite you ....... yet! She needs to meet this famous person (well on GR anyway) as soon as possible - so that she can used to you! A photo of Lexi would be a big improvement on your current image dear Jonesey. Keep us posted.... :-D :-D

	The cheek of the woman. That's rich coming from someone who, when she is not cavorting as a chicken, does chimpanzee (Or is it an orangutan?) impressions. :-P

	She looks beautiful Jonesey !!! Toots - I am SO sorry you are going but fully understand your reasons and can't blame you really. My very best of wishes go to 'you and yours' - don't forget us as we will be thinking of you ! I bet you don't need a sub to post on the 'success board' ?? :-D - You could post a 'hello' from time to time. Lots of love, Dea x
