good evening / mornin/or afternoon xxxxx :-D

Good evening Puss, and good morning Aunty if she hasn't disappeared off to work work. :-)

The Australian congress thingy looks far more professional than our WDYTYA show. Ours is more to show case/sell FH related books/resources/search sites/groups etc. Yes, the major players do arrange talks, some, like Ancestry for an additional £2, but most are free. Considering that our tickets would have cost £22 for 2 + a small booking fee, AUD 145 for a full day pass does seem rather excessive. That's getting on for GBP100!!! The speakers had better be good at that price. Interesting to read that many of the exhibits crop up in both countries ;-)

Glad you enjoyed your film, Aunty. It looks like the sort of thing I might watch on TV, but not necessarily at the cinema.

A good result for LG. Well done her team. 'Unmentionables'? What are those? There's always tomorrow, or the day after, or next week, perhaps.

That looks interesting Aunty, I have bookmarked it to read later... we have the odd genealogy day at the City Library and now and then the Genealogical Assn puts on a day but so far I have not attended. I wonder if Huia has ever gone to one, she can be quite a gadabout.

The deer fence is coming along nicely, when finished we will be able to have our own bambis and raise our own venison.

Evening all, just been playing with the new cd's I bought from show. Well worth their money DET even OH is impressed. I have also now installed NBI so if anyone wants anything searched let me know.

What is NBI lol then i can see lol

Diamond encrusted Crown on the cheap? You should have thought of that last summer and looked on ebay ( no questions asked about its provinence - lol)

Only just come on the PC since dinner time yesterday, what with one thing and another, and will possibly disappear again shortly as it is!

so sorry you majesty, hello maz xx :-D

Did you miss me???? :-D

Between Sparks & Brownies, BC Winter Games, feeling sorry for myself, my parents having very bad colds, finding my great uncles employment record, I havn't been around much.

But I did just want to let you know I am fine

Hi RMS. Good to hear from you again. You need to read back on some of the previous posts and sort out where you wish to lodge in the Chateau. There is a rebuilding going on so watch where you walk.

Hope the parents are well and recovering. We have just had summer over here lasted about a week. Back to cold and miserable drizzly rain.

Morning all.

I haven't been around much either. I do log on now and again but by the time I read up on what I've missed, I haven't got time to type anything. Every time I start to type..... either my son or hubby wants me for something or the phone rings.

Anyway, they're both still in bet at the moment and it's a bit early for someone to phone me.

I wondered where you'd been hiding RMS, nice to see that you're fine. Hope your parents are feeling better now.

LG and DET have been giving the police helicopters the run around again I see.

LG, are you going to tell us what the Ancestry tips are that you found out? Or have I read over it too quickly and missed that bit?

Hmm, so if Froggy decides to get down on one knee............ we'll know where he got the diamond ring from :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-)
