On the IGI pilot site which sue posted, if you click on browse all records instead of using the search box, it brings up a map of the world, choosing the country lets you see what they have including all the ones not yet transcribed. you can look at those ones and find things which the search box won't

I didn't know about that site either - somewhere else for me to go ferreting around in - thank you Sue, and Linda.

Night Linda ....and thanks for the tips ....I'm like a kid in a sweet shop when it comes to new records to source ...lol

I think we are all addicted Amanda - do you think we can get treatment? or will they open rehab centres for the bad cases lol.

Goodnight Linda - thanks for the tip.

Diane - the funny thing is is that my daughter and her fiance had no intention of inviting her ex boss to the wedding. It's going to be a small affair with family and a few close friends. Amanda - an unfair dismissal case could drag on for ages. I can well understand my daughter not wanting to bother. Who really wins?

They would be very quiet rehab centres Tec.....lol.....full of people silently thumbing through their notes .

Bedtime again - keeps happening.

Enjoy your day Sue, and Berona when she looks in.
I hope Allan has safely returned from Perth,
Sleep well Diane, and Amanda.

Goodnight,

Well I'm off to bed . OH went up nearly an hour ago ! The dogs will be getting confused if their bedtime routine is disturbed...lol

I hope it pours with rain tomorrow , then I'll have the perfect excuse to sit on here and search to my hearts content ( or discontent as the case may be ....lol ).

Night night everyone and have a good day you Aussies .

Goodnight Tec - sweet dreams.

I laughed at the image of a group of drooling, blank faced people sitting in a room going through their notes. Only the odd yell of "got it" disturbing the peace:-)) Goodnight Amanda -sleep well.

Well everyone has gone except you Sue and I suspect you have gone as well. I had to go to FB to message a few people as well as granddaughter.
Made me smile too trying to imagine that same group Sue. They would put up warning to people not to go on this site, with a picture of the group saying ( This Could be YOU ) lol.

Goodnight Linda, Amanda and Tec, hope you all have a restfull sleep.

Hi to Perse, Allan, Berona, Carole, Colin and Janet and anyone I have missed.

Time I was off too, goodnight all

Here I am ready to pay attention instead of looking at the wills on Ancestry, but no one is here. Oh well that is life

Greetings from the Land of Dragons,

Today is grey and overcast, rather windy, but dry.

Glad to see you are paying attention Linda, I'm only here because it's coffee time - off to town later as OH is back to the Doc's.

Hope everyone is having a good day/evening, or a good sleep.

Tec.

It is a beautiful day here Tec.
I am having coffee as well,so thought i would look in.

I have had a rearrange in the freezer and have managed to fit everything,so the other one is now turned off. i didn't want to spend too much time rearranging things last night as I didn't want to keep the door open for too long.

Guess what I am having for lunch - yes soup!

I hope that you manage to get other things done in town while the Duchess is at the doctors.

Linda I hope you haven't fallen head first into the chest freezer mopping up after it defrosted :))

LindainHerriotCountry Report 26 Aug 2010 20:55

I chickened out of cleaning it out. I left it open to defrost when I went out this afternoon.I will have to clean it tomorrow

I hope you had a good afternoon out Tec

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 26 Aug 2010 21:21

That's a horrible job.......ugh.

The afternoon wasn't that exciting really - I dropped OH off at the doctors, went to a couple of shops, then the supermarket, still busy with tourists.

OH has appointment at the cottage hospital tomorrow, and two more appointments next week.

Tec.

You are getting out and about.

There are still plenty of tourists here, we have had loads of Americans this week. we normally get more Aussies than anything else
