Don't you just hate these 'morning' people? Far too loud...shhhhhhh!

Well, it looks as if there were so few worthy people to be 'Raptured' that no one has noticed they have gone!! Perhaps we all ought to work at it for the next event. :D

They could have nicked Auntie's weather forecast from the Uk's LOL Hope everything is battened down, or do they tend to over egg the pudding?

We have a visitation today from BM and his current squeeze. At least it means lunch out.

Enjoy your day, Maz and Frog included ;-)

Just had a shower of rain. Quite warm here today but no severe weather as predicted yet.

Stayed up late last night waiting for the end.

Very tired today so had a nanna nap this afternoon.

By the way where is Kew. Where your National Archives are kept. Is it in London. I've emailed a question to them and wondered where they were geographically speaking.

Sorry forgot. OH thinned out my carrots. The poor little ones he pulled out looked like stunted corkscrews. Told you I was no good at gardening.

+++DetEcTive+++ Report 21 May 2011 11:32

Poor carrots - they need space! Does seem odd that your are planting them in your Auntumn, rather than spring. Perhaps its too hot for them over the summer!

Kew is West London, technically in Surrey, but also Greater London within the M25 ring road.

Talking of Showers - OH is nagging, so i'm orf (well, at least I'm not too smelly!)

:D

Edit from Aunty. RMS. Please note. This is for you. About your George Holland and his will.

http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/cms/1226.htm

There is quite a bit of info there but, in summary it will allow you to have the following information from the will.

•full name and last address
•the date of death
•the type of grant issued
•the Registry at which the grant issued and the date of issue
•the value of the estate - in cases where inheritance tax has been paid the exact figures for both the gross and net estate are shown but for excepted estates the net estate figure is shown rounded up to the nearest £1000
The calendars include all grants issued throughout England and Wales.

There is no charge for you to search the calendars yourself. If you need any help, staff will explain how you can do this. If you write into a Registry there is a £5 fee payable.

I emailed Ancestry and asked them how to access more info on wills.

LOL Maz, stick his name on your tree anyway, I'm sure he'll fit in somewhere.

DET, AuntyS's autumn is like our summer, so the carrots might prefer that time of year............. not that I've ever grown carrots!!

Maz. Who on earth asked me the question about George Holland. I know it was RMS. I knew it was one of the Nutters and I though it was you.

I do apologise. Heavens last I heard from RMS she was stuck in a tent singing loud songs surrounded by wriggly little girl guides or brownies.

OK - cross out Maz and insert RMS instead.

Sorry Maz you will have to wait for the next fortune.

Oh, we went out for pub lunch with BM, his gf, and PC who was around for a change. Apparently we 'passed' - lol .
Then OH decided to give a large tree a haircut leaving me to clear away the mess. Harrumph. At least we decided that as we need the rain, we should get the garden furniture out of storage. :D

Make the most of your time - he'll be back soon !!

We certainly need some rain. I managed to break the tap connector on the hosepipe (after the garden centre had shut of course :-(. Ended up with loads of trips with the watering can. Still it was good exercise LOL
