Marilyn,

At 10.43 you were going for a Bath.

At 10.46 you Posted again.

That's the fastest bath I have ever seen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stevey....LOL

It was not full enough ....so had to wait 5mins more .. :D

Are you watching me ? god forbid you if you are you'll get a shock with no make up hair a mess no teeth .....looking frumpy & old.

But now ......a different picture all perfumed up, lippy & make-up to the nines , At least Pete recognizes me now ....LOL ;-)

Marilyn,

Never Old !

Mature,....... like the best wine........and tasty with it ;-)

Wow ....Your definitely watching ;-)

Hi all, I've been busy answering emails...... still got 2 to answer but I need to wash my hair before I go out shopping.

My loo rolls aren't scented......... well, I've never noticed if they are. I buy An***x.

It's cold today, nice and sunny but a strong cold wind. I'm wondering if it's worth doing my hair and then going out in that.

Stephen, you're such a charmer :-) that's why we like you on the thread......... boosts our confidence a bit... :D :D

Pauline,

My dear Lady Stephen tells me I can charm the Birds from the trees.

So I tried it one day......out they came.......and Sh** all over me ROFL

Next time - ask Marilyn for some of her scented loo roll first....... :D :D

I must go now or I'll end up going shopping with my hair in a ponytail.

Dame Shelly,

George William Hodgson.......The only one listed on the Royal Navy Records was born in Leeds 3rd July 1904 Height 5ft 5ins Brown eyes Brown hair.
Could this be him ?

Stephen

stephen

this isone for you please.
My Grandmothers brother James Alfred Sheldon was mentioned in Despatches in July 1943 he was an able seaman 223841

I am trying to find out why was he was mentioned in dispatches I am not sure , if he was on a ship or a submarine as many of that side of the family were in Submarines. I think they called them Submariners not sure ? I have gone on Ancestry but can not find anywhere I can trace why he got mentioned in despatches. any ideas where I can look. ?

Rita

Pauline thank you for the Pm I will read it and see if I can do as you have said you have written it down clearly but to be honest I have no idea as to how I get the picture into the computer and onto the profile. my profile at the moment tells me to update I wonder if GR know there are some people on here not able to do many things on the computer. like you young bright things can do.

Rita, it says 'Update Profile' in everyone's box, it's just that we can only see our own. What we see on everyone else's box is 'Send Message'.

It's a long time since I was called a young bright thing but it sounds nice....... :D :D

Good I am glad you liked my description of you.

I am doing a research on the cemeteries ANZAC.
in Gallipoli Consular Cemetery I have done ARI BURNU Cemetery
and the Memorial inscription at the entrance to the tiny beach cemetery .

Rita

Good evening everyone.
I have read the posts,and have now forgotten what has been posted.

Update on grandaughter and baby. Grandaughter was not allowed home yesterday, as she fainted a few times after giving birth,blood pressure I assume.
She did allow my daughter to pop in to see them for a few minutes last night.
She has left instructions that she doesn't want any visitors today, as she is to tired.
I can understand that she has just given birth, but for goodness sake, she is not the only woman to have given birth, and if she lived in an African country, she would have stooped down, had her baby and carried on her way.
Even her younger sister has been told not to visit. So we are now waiting for written permission to see them. LOL
I am being a bit sarcastic I know, but the way she treated her mum, just about takes the biscuit.

Cor talk about warm in the garden earlier. I was putting the last of my summer bedding plants in, and was really hot, so I had to keep going indoors for cold drinks.
Thank goodness it's all done now, and I can sit back and enjoy it all.

Mo ....I did have a giggle at your comment on grand daughter wanting no visitors , maybe she thinks she's the only one that can give birth ..LOL
What ever has got into her......? never mind Mo she WILL want ALL of you soon to baby sit then you'll have an answer for her , Not feeling well cant baby sit !!!!!!!!!

Its been lovely here today I have been to a place called Saltash in Cornwall, just for a change had a walk around spent nothing .....must be sick !! LOL

Sally ...who's the photograph of ?

Oh Mo, I can see that granddaughter of yours getting a good tongue lashing when you see her. I suppose you could just put it down to her hormones acting up.

Sally, there's probably hundreds of people you can't contact on this site due to one thing or another. I don't suppose GR know if someone dies or if they change their email address, they just keep their tree open because they haven't been told to close it.

I'm still waiting for a reply from the first person I contacted on here in 2006. He'd been asking for information about my grandmother's family. I could have given him loads of info and told him there was a massive family up here, but he never posted again and never answered my PM. The fact that he disappeared so suddenly made me think he was either very ill or dead.

Maddie, I hate having to wait in for someone or something to get here, it always ends up in a wasted day.

Quick.......... someone get Marilyn a doctor!!! :D :D :D

Marilyn,

Saltash.......a grand wee place.......nice bridge......Tamar River.....Great !

Pauline ...believe you me ,I tried hard to spend my money and took some extras with me , but only bought some strawberries ...LOL

Going to North Devon two weeks time so saving my dosh as there is Factory Outlets there , I'll have a field day ... :D

Stevey...Saw some lovely sailing boats that were moored as there was not enough wind today... the Tamar was glistening ..nearly went and had a pint on the small harbour a pub called the Union all painted in the Union Jack flag , but changed our minds and came home and had a beer on my patio....

Just a flying visit tonight, lol. Im test driving my new broomstick :D :D :D :D
Seriously though, I've had a busy day and I'm shattered so going to put my feet up and enjoy a good book.
Hope all the friendlies are well and have had a nice day,
