Well, good morning all ! :-D

I seem to be the only one here - shall I put the warmers on and get the pans ready ?

I expect you are fighting your way through the error messages again :-(

I eventually managed to get in by a very roundabout method :-( :-(

Well, as I am still the only one who has managed to get into the kitchen, I will prepare a 'little something' for when the rest of you arrive:

Fresh fruits and yoghurts over there >>>>> with the cereals.

Freshly baked rolls and croissants, warm from the oven with an assortment of jams, jellies and spreads.

Platters of sliced hams and cheeses, salads and crackers
Spinach and broccoli quiche,

In the warmers:
Bacon, scrambled eggs, sausages, grilled tomatoes, grilled mushrooms, hash browns.
Eggs - poached, fried, or omelettes (with a variety of fillings) cooked to your requirements.

Orange muffins, peach tart sultana scones

Tea, Coffee and juices

Sorry it's not up to Sylvia's or Persie's standards but enjoy !

Persie - or anyone ???

Where can I look for details on someone who went to NZ from England c 1880 please?

Dea Xxx

Thank you Dea...

PC man came and took his computer to find out why it is going slow.. and he has been on my laptop..

so I missed breakfast.. spinach and brocolli quiche sounds nice..

Now what are you wanting to know re NZ.. not always easy to find the blimmin boats that come here.. can find some..

who do you want where?

Persie .. if you don't want on screen you can either pm me or put it on the other side.. we do the odd one on there.. Not saying you are an odd one... :-)

Thank you Persie,

I am helping on a thread and she mentions that her great grandmother Alice Nottingham was sent to NZ aged 16.

If I have the correct one then this would have been around 1880. - she certainly doesn't seem to appear on 1881 census.

Her sister Ellen, born c 1859 is also missing and I wondered if she might have gone too?

I would be interested to see what info was given on the details of Alice's arrival.

Don't spend too much time on this just now as I don't know what info the poster already has on her life in NZ but I just wanted to see if there was somewhere I could look to view the details?

Thanks Persie,

Dea Xxx

there is a marriage for an Alice Nottingham in 1881 to Thorkel Hansen...

and there is an Ellen Nottingham married 1900 to Joseph Alexander..

I take it there were no middle names..

just saw on roots chat about Thorkel and Alice.. were her parents William and Sarah?

Yes they were Persie - can you post me a link please?

As I said, don't spend too much time on this as I have asked the poster for more details and I am sure she will respond but you know how impatient I can be so I was just going to have a little look around while I was waiting.

I do believe she knows about the NZ side but is trying to trace back through the mother in England where I am having a 'little' difficulty finding details that I can be certain of before her marriage to William.

Thanks Persie,

Dea Xxx

Dea... I googled

Thorkel Hansen Married Alice Nottingham

and the rootschat thread came up..

I am never sure where to shorten the link..

Whats this, a buddy look up thread ;-)

Do you know what one looks like?

Morning all! As I have said before.....anyone would think this was a genealogy site!!!!!!! ;-)




Another early morning and the physio came right on time....... :-D


Lots of paperwork to start with and then some exercise advice. Very nice young woman who will take OH under her wing. It's always pleasing to know that there are such helpful people around.


Hopefully out to lunch and then.........................nuffink :-D :-D

Thank you Persie Xxx

As a reward for that, I will give you a site where you can post in the long link and it gives you a 'little short' one - I don't know how it does it or why the little one works, but it does :-D :-D :-D

The site is:

and if you post 'your' long one in it will convert it to:

Isn't it clever ????? - I find this really fascinating every time I use it - It's like 'real magic' to people like me who haven't got a clue about these things.

I am having a lovely lazy day today - I am not even dresses yet :-D

We usually have little grandson on a Friday, which I love, but today 'hubby' is away in Lincolnshire with his golf team for a golf 'away day' - They get bacon butties on arrival, soup and sarnies for lunch and a nice meal at the end of the day and play lots of golf inbetween.

SO, nothing for me to HAVE to do all day :-) :-) :-)

I DO have lots I should be doing but I will decide 'IF' and 'WHEN' I do any of it.

I will really miss having my grandson though but I really cannot 'manage him' on my own - He is a lovely boy but such hard work and I just can't run around after him and keep him safe without help.

Never mind, we will have him back again to enjoy next week.

Dea Xxx

P.S. - I think I will go and get washed and dressed now - can't sit here in my jimmy-jams all day ............can I ??

Dea Xxx

Course you can Dea - enjoy the peace whilst it lasts.... :-D



Anyway.....good morning all, may the fourth be with you! ;-)

Thank you Cynthia.

I hope you and OH manage to get out to lunch today <3
