Hi all

Congratulations Jonesey on your forthcoming event. Now are you going to be called great grandad or great grandpapa

I never knew my great grandparents, I only knew my maternal grandmother who died in 1972 of cancer. My patenal grandmother died in 194 aged 62 and my paternal grandfather died in 1951 aged 80 and my maternal grandfather died in 1951 aged 51.

I was thinking earlier about my mum saying "why did you make me wait so long before making me a grandmother"....she was only 52...whats the matter with these mothers?

52 is much too young to have that title lol

Ginny,

As my old mum used to say when asked that question. "I'm as old as my tongue and a little bit older than my teeth".


TF,

That remains to be seen. I think I favour "The Sage"

Webster’s Dictionary defines a “sage” as one who is wise through reflection and experience. In ancient cultures, a group’s sages were those who had experienced rich lives and were thoughtful about what they had learned through these experiences.

With the worry that your own kids bring I think I'll be happy to wait many years before becoming a granny....

I need a rest before the next generation comes along!


Ja...x who is this 'fancy man'????

Looks like he is collecting "Fit" looking women and he found me so sent me that message.

I used to be on a site called facepics and I was forever getting messages from foreign men, probably wanting to come over here marry an English woman so they could stay in the country.

Hello all - nice to see things back to "normal" on here.

I knew my Mum's parents ............. Grandma died when I was 14, Grandfather when I was 23. And we lived across the street from them until we moved when I was 11

Interesting thing was ................ we called them Mother and Father.

My brother was born in 1929, and Mother said she was too young to be called Grandmother, so Mother was the choice.

I of course used the same when I came along many years later.


She was 47 when Frank was born ................... she was just turned 20 when she married in 1902, and Father was 17


.... and BOTH lied about their ages on the marriage certificate.

She said she was 21, and Father said he was 19. Both fathers were there, and one of her sisters was a witness ............. so why lie????



Both my father's parents had died by the time I was born



and I was never told anything about any siblings or preceding generations.


Everything I know I have found out since 2004.

Hope Renes feels better after a good night's sleep
xxxx

for those who have wondered ....... I have permission to say



JC is working extremely hard, with many deadlines, and dare not come onto the boards or she will distracted from the work.

Thanks for the update on JC.

Jonesey, The Sage, that would suit you because you know your onions lol

Hope Renes is feeling better tomorrow

good one Toots!


I only eat roast chicken because of the Sage and Onion stuffing :)))))



forgot to say



We are waiting for the cheque for the generator!

......... the assessor talked to me on Tuesday, and there were 2 options. The first was they would issue the cheque in the name of the store where we got the quotation from, and that would include the amount of HST (ie, your VAT). The store is in the town closest to the cabin, and I pointed out that we would not be going up there until May or June ...... so he offered to issue the cheque in our name, cost of replacement minus the HST. When we buy the generator, we can go back to the insurance company and get re-imbursed for the HST.

They are paying us a lot more than we paid for the generator 5 years ago ........... but we do have Replacement Value insurance, and prices have gone up. We'll get close to about £1200 back

Nice one Sylvs. It will help towards your next trip to see the family.


Have just been to the opening of the dress shop run by my daughter-in-law and her sister. There were a lot of folk there which was good and they were doing excellent trade at 20% off! Some really nice clothes too - I got a pretty lightweight cardi for the summer.


Poor old Fans.....hope she is wearing her thermals....village halls aren't noted for their warmth!


D'yer know Gins, there is a place in Liverpool called The Dingle......!!


Hope Renes feels better tomorrow - she needs to snuggle down with her comfort blanket and sleep the night away. Shhhhh....tip toeing away.
