I got my tree up to date after 4 months on the site....just shows you what you can do when you manage to escape the clutches of the threads for a while lol I guess there are a lot of members working on the site on a Sunday evening though, it's running frustratingly slow, or is it just me?

Ah, so you are the one responsible for slowing down the site are you? We should sentence you to be Transported.....to Port Clarence!! Lol

Nice one Jim lol, actually, my lot came through Haverton Hill mate

Hi Paul, the site's been slow for me pretty much all afternoon, yet all the other sites I use are ok. Sarah x

Paul When our computer was down a while ago, I started reorganising my paperwork - goodness I had no idea I had found so much information! nell

I guess Sunday is a busy day for geneologists Sarah...i can call myself one at last instead of a board hugger lol

Paul, I've been lazy with mine for the past week and spent too much time on the boards. I think I need too kick myself into gear!!! lol Sarah x

I fergot we was sposed to do tree werk as well..........LOL

Must be a day for 'housekeeping' with us researchers. I been having lots of trouble today with slow site. Downloaded my old file and uploaded new GED - it took foreveeerrrrr. Worst of all though I've been clearing out old e-mails and contacts, thinking I'm doing the right thing and not blocking up the site but it's such a laborious job on this site. Can't read all your e-mails in a list and delete as you go, have to do one at a time. And, every time you delete a contact instead of taking you back to where you left off the site returns you to page 1 - how boring and archaic. Ah well, done now and I've had my moan. Sorry 'bout that. Jan

Oh Paul, such memories. When we were children, we used to come to stay with Great Aunt and Uncle in Billingham. Always used to know when we were near. Smelly Haverton Hill. Incidentally Paul. Can you remember some years back, in Middlesborough, a chap building a boat in his back garden and a great big crane had to come and winch it over the rooftop? Jenny x

Jenny, I remember seeing that on the news. It made London News that one hehe. J

Hi Jenny, yes I remember that boat, it was in a garden of a house behind the Palladium shops, I watched it being built over the years, i always wondered how he was going to move it..lol

It was built by a Mr A Bunn. Mum's cousin. I am still in contact with him. Had some lovely times with the family. Wont put the name of the street on here. But it must be the same one. Never ever thought I would end up living up here and married to a Geordie. Jenny x
