MARILYN HAS NO ONE COME FORWARD AND ADMITTED THEY PUT THE PAPER THROUGH THE DOOR. perhaps they are going to ask Brucie to do a WDYTYA abe we might see you on the TV whoooo.so let me know what you find out even if I am away l dont want to miss any of the excitment
or it could be they are on holiday in your area and took a chance some one might bei n. did your Dad come from Devon then ? or was he born outside as I thought Bruce Forsyht was born in London.

I have been doing some of my packing and sorted my tablets out then I had a phone call from my friend in Norfolk so I have spent half and hour on the telephone with her.
Mo it was not a booby prize it is from a good company and it is a long jar surrounded by basket work and has a metal clasp on it it is quiet heavy. as my sister potters about in her garden l thought it would be a nice gift for her. she has gardeners to do the heavy work the big tree;s and hedges and the lawns but she does the flowers her self.
walk to the top of her road and cross over and your on Hampstead heath. Mo I dont think I will go to tea with the Queen she is always asking me and I refuse very nicely and say sorry I have accepted another invite to go somewhere else.

Lol

Love Rita

Hi all

Now this is what I got on a piece of paper .

Elizabeth Alexandra Mary.( NO Surname )
Born 21st April 1926 aged 84yrs.

Bruce Joseph Forsyth Johnson
Born 22nd February 1928 aged 82yrs.

Now someone knows that my Dad is called Johnson and has come around to see him ,but he never heard them knock on the door.
Now my Dad is illegitimate and he took the name Johnson from his mothers marriage to a Johnson when he was 3yrs old.

We dont know anything about his step father as my dad never liked him and we are really not blood relation to this name Johnson only by marriage , but I think I might like him now ...LOL

So I gotta do some research now on the Johnson as it could be a relation of his step dad.
But I never knew Brucie was a Johnson did any of you ??????

Well Well Well Marilyn does this mean we may have to pay to talk to you,if you have a famous relative. In either normal language or rhyming slang,how much brass is going to cost us. LOL

Rita,your tea party sounds like it went well. Good on you for winning the raffle.
I hope you enjoy yourself at your sisters. If you go to tea with Her Maj ,give her all our regards. And if you get given an MBE or something as good,please carry on talking to us humble people.

Shelly whats save and chips,do you mean saveloy and chips.

Hi Everyone,

Something funny happened today. I went to see my Dad and he said somebody has put this through my door.A piece of paper with two names on it.
nothing else !!
Now someone obviously is trying to trace their family tree because one name is the same as my Dads (JOHNSON ) now why the hell there is no contact is a mystery, now my dad is very deaf and don't always answer the door.
Guess who the man on the piece of paper ???? said Bruce Joseph Forsyth JOHNSON B 22nd feb aged 82yrs..... Now this I think is our one and only BRUCE FORSYTH.
So I did a bit of research and yes he married Anthea REDFERN 1973 Berkshire and he married her in the name Bruce Joseph Forsyth JOHNSON

I never knew he was called JOHNSON........ So I might be famous ..LOL, better not talk Slang anymore ...LOL

So The other person on the bit of paper could have been his sister because there is no surname about the same age as Bruce .

Now I'm going to wait and see who put this in my Dads door hopefully.....

Rita have a lovely time with your sister, bet she will be pleased with her prezzie.

I had a lovely lunch and ended on my sisters sons farm.

Right that out of the way,
I am going to a strawberry tea this afternoon being held in the grassy lawns of the local church. by Goldsworth Care they shop and do errands and take you to and from the hospitals or doctors if you are not able to get there or shop for yourselve through illness..
The invite all the people on their lists and if you are not able to get there they drive you. I think that is such a nice thing to do.
Then I have to do my packing ready for going to my sisters wednesday
she meets me at Waterloo Station. so I am hoping we get decent weather no rain so I can go about and do some more research. I want to have a look at this new Mosque they have spoken about in Ealing (Wembley )
If Highate cemetery is open I shall have a stroll around there but it only opens so many days of the year.it is where Carl Marx is buried.and other famous. people but it is also a place they were buried from St Pancras areas as well. so we will see.
I have nothing else planned for today.
