Who ???? LOL :-D. Hi YG.

Ta wit, Ta woo...........who let the ool in the hoose?

I say, have you noticed we have a new emoticon? No longer do we need to use :-0 as sad, we have :-( instead! And the piece of paper going into an envelope to denote a post has been added to a thread is back. That may have been added last week, but I've only just cottoned on :-D And, And, When someone has sent you a pm, you not only get the closed envelope on the bar towards the top of the page, it also tells you how many new messages you have.

If we want to have another go at meeting, I have very few prior engagements, apart from 10 Oct.

A 12lb baby? Ouch! Hope the mum is ok - they used to test fro diabetes when someone gave birth to such a large infant.

Ouch from me about the baby too. Right who is going to choose a date then???

Oh, you can. Stick a pin in the calendar for a Saturday and see what everyone else says.

morning all ,
lovely day here got the washer going and some time at home today so i am going to get some chores done
and ouch to the baby mine were 10 ibs thought that was big

Morning all,I can't stick a pin in the calender I might stab one of my Gunner boys LOL . How about Saturday 15th / 22nd October before weather gets awful ? :-D

Afternoon - how about 22 Oct? It might be far enough away to get discounted rail tickets.

hello I am travelling that day lol
i will be in london by 8.00 somthing as we are on a very early train and our tickets are bound but i can get the CPs ready for you in pb lol or London lol
I am looking forward to a break I will be watching the news for suspicious activities lol

Yep 22nd is good with me. Hopefully YG will look in later and we can get her opinion on it and to where is best to meet.

NO cp's Maz just the copper chopper :-D :-D ;-)

lol they wont be noticed they can go and play in the english channel for a few days that will keep them occupied
I am doing well here got washing dry and ironed,
I was worried earlier as a school bus has had a crash this morning in Darlington .A does school runs there but its not their buses however its still nasty I believe there are injuries too

Glad that A is OK. If Maz wanted to, we could do it the other day that LG suggested - 15 Oct.

Oh dear that sounds bad Maz. Glad it not A's run though. I am sitting here working out who will be able to join Brownies after the half term. Then the fun of trying to phone the parents :-\

And I'm back to my Jewish heritage, having moved on from Blochs to Cantors, who are actually Cohens! :-)

Oooo any luck with the jewish roots??. They sound much like my Measham's (Derek's favourite NOT :-P ) :-D

hi go with the 22nd and if that is the day you can all do it perhaps we could do one in the new year sometime when life has settled down a little
Mum is not getting younger so i may try two trips a year although A may be working on the olympics next year with transport so he may use mums as a break

Maz - LG and I are flexible. As long as 10 Oct is Ok with YG, and YOU want to/are able to travel, then we'll go with that!!!

Ah, the Cantor/Cohens :-| Having given up on Abraham Bloch, I decided to back track his wife. With someones guidance, we worked out who Charlotte Cantor (mother-in-law) b Bath, lodger, on 3 census was married to, and bought the MC. Then couldn't understand why he had a different surname (Cohen) to his father (Cantor). The helper suggested purchasing a 1853 bc with the surname Cantor, but gro sent one in the name of Cohen. Much tooing and froing until gro said the one I'd ordered (Cantor) had been registered in error, and they were legally only able to issue the corrected Cohen one. Apart from the surname, all other details were the same and matched the MC.
Are you still with me ? :-D :-D
But it does mean that I'm not sure if I'm looking for BMD as Cohen or Cantor, and there are several Cantor families in the area. :-(

Bet you wish you'd never asked LOL

10th Oct is a Monday. ????? Just checked other calender and I can't do 15th.

DET Your Cohens/Cantors do have a lot in common with my Meashams :-D

hi just go with the majority i would not be able to go on a monday yet any way

Ooops! That was the day I said I can't go. Was it the 15 then? Yes, that's the following Saturday.

Sorry for the confusion.

So - how does Sat 15 Oct sound to Maz, or would you prefer to leave it this autumn?

I can't do 15th as I have checked on upstairs calender and I will be otherwise engaged
