General Chat

Morning all,
apologies for my absence last night, went out for a meal with OH's brother and his wife. Got back later than intended and was too tired to put computer on.
Looks like another lovely day here, I could get used to this weather :D
I have a few bits to do in the garden and then I want to spend some time on family tree. Yesterday after a year of searching, I finally had my uncles death in 1931 aged 11 confirmed by a cousin who visited the cemetery (in Belfast)where I knew he was and found that he's actually buried with my great grandparents. The bonus being that I now know also their dates of death, grave number etc. Cousin will hopefully forward a photo of headstone as well.


Have a good day folks,

<3

Edit .... Hi Huia...... :-)

Dermot, the yobbos in those days used to rub two sticks together. Of course the cars in those days were made of wood, no rubber or petrol or anything like that. (Think the Flintstones) :D

Huia.

Oh well.......looks like I ought to do some research ...nobody about to play with :P

Pat that hat is gathering dust ....LOL

Where is everyone tonight ?


Agatha,,,,,,,,I want to cuddle your lovely Oscar .....he looks as though he wants picking up ..LOL

Pat enjoy the Cup Finale tomorrow ....I'm on the beach having a BBQ :S

I don't know Dermot!
I can't strike a match anyway!
I'm going to be reading tonight.
:D

Before matches were invented, how did yobos set fire to upturned cars outside Bristol superstores?

I'm home. Yes it's the Cup final tomorrow! I'll watch it. Ive got some strawberries and cream to have during half time.
Agarha I tried looking for books by M.C.Beaton but the library didn't have any.
Going to get tea now and then read. I've got 3 weeks in which to read these books but there is a Bank Holiday in between. :-)

Hi All,

Oh Mo..... whatever next will they think of changing ? poor little mite having to live with muck in her hair ....

I can remember my daughter in law wiping all surfaces with antibacterial wipes frightened that her baby will catch germs , until I said wait until he crawling you will run out of those wipes ......I often remind her of her worry ,when he started to pick up the odd sweets from the floor and eat it along with anything else he could find on the floor ..LOL

Maddie you do sound very sober ....maybe too much talking not enough drinking !!

Took my Step mother to the doctors for her ears to be syringed , and she told me that her and my dad have been arguing lately ....oh dear I feel a divorce coming on ... ( 97 & 96) LOL

getting dinner ready now.....

Pauline I ried again it opened and I found the file but could not put the buterfly on so I will leave it

Rita

Sometimes this can be a crude & cruel country when all that can be said about Pippa Middleton is that she has a gorgeous & shapely bum.

Well, I'm no different to everyone else - she has!

me feet are killing my

little ones had me running around raggied after them

Thats a good point Rita, they could have had grey female profiles, but I was thinking they could have had the symbols that are on public toilets of the little man or woman.
Your as bad as me Pat, I read all the time, I like anything by M.C beaton.

Pauline I tried to do that alter my profile (man ) but got too nervous in case I made a mistake and could not put it right.? I have not got many photos of me on my films one in a swimsuit Lol and a few others. so I was not sure what to do ? I will wait till one of the family call and asked them to help me. I can do it while they tall me what I need to do
. so MR MAN will stay as he is. I wonder why GR put a mans photo up for male and female they could have put female for the women and Male for the men

back to my drawings.

Rita

:-) :D

I've just come back form the library. i took eight books out :-)

Afternoon all.
Good grief, just coz I was not around last night, it has taken me ages to read all the postings.
I was asked to stand in for someone at darts last night. I had never played on a Thursday night before, but I will be from now on, as I have been asked to play for them on a regular basis.

I have updated the birthdays, to include Sally and Agatha, but Dermot has been very secretive about his, so I can't add him unfortunately.
Perhaps Dermot doesn't want to suffer the indignities, of us lot announcing his birthday on here, and thats a shame.
We are such a quiet lot, and would not consider embarassing anyone.........oops I lied about that.
Update on new great grandaughter.

We saw our lovely new baby last night. She has got jet black hair, that is at least one inch in length all over.
When my grandaughter bought her in, I said oh my god, what has she got in her hair. Grandaughter said it's from her birth, we are not allowed to wash it for at least six days.
And when I fed and changed her bottom, I asked for the baby wipes, and got told, no, we are not allowed to use them now, it's got to be tepid water to cleanse their botties.
Now as most of you know, my grandaughter was born in January, and things have changed since then.
Lilly was bathed the day after her birth, and baby wipes were used from day one.
How do they come up with these changes, in just over three months.
Flamin daft if you ask me, and young Gracie-Mai has got to put up with birth matter stuck to her hair for the next couple of days, how unheigenic is that, especially as the Fontinel is still wide open,and is open to infection.
Still who am I to argue with the powers that be, I just hope my grandaughter takes mine and her mums advice.
