Hi Dea,

Wow I reckon you have craked the Tilly bit of the puzzle. A number of the photo's are to a Freddy and then there is a Fred Matthews with John at a much later point in time.

What was really odd is that I hadn't looked at this stuff in oh maybe 5 years. When I did I realised that I have a large number of Matthews in my tree and now even odder, is a number of Marshall's. Both of these branches also had people who emigrated out here. Wouldn't it be strange if any of them turned out to be related..what would be the odd's! (Probably nil, but..)

Persie don't tell your daughter about Gracie, she might scare her of children for a LONG time! LOL she saw Santa on a fire truck tonight and ran up to him and asked him for a baby sister!

ANY IDEAS HOW TO TACKLE THIS ONE! LOL I can assure you I don't have a baby in her Christmas stocking!

Hi all :-)

Persie hope your daughter is feeling better soon.

Dea thanks for the additional info, I read back and found it! Can you believe none of the people that I wrote to asking if they had the same person in their trees and offering them the documents have replied. I know i should not be suprised, but I though some one would at least want the baptismal certificate that is what umm 130 years old. I would be so excited if anyone found anything of my family!

Ugggh I HATE hot Christmas's. I really should have been born back in Scotland or something!

I know HID might reckon on a laptop screen but a note book screen is very clear and easy to read... I have looked at my daughters one...

I think Ja....x should have a try and a play around on them as well before hand.

They have given her dinner it is called "Chef's choice" she took a photo of it..(LOL) .. Sylvs could run rings around the hospital chef and then some. She is then on nil by mouth and tomorrow they are going to stick a camera down her throat but what is really annoying is if they don't have time tomorrow (Tues) they will do it Thurs... buddy charming really.
She is not back at where she had the operation she is in Wellington Hosp which is just down the road from her place, before she was up the valley about 30km's away.

I just googled Denver Omelette... one of them was not exactly pleasant reading. :-|

Good morning all - ahhhhh bacon, tomatoes and fried bread....just the job on a cold and misty morning. Thanks you Sylvs.



Hello Gracie.......I'm sure Dea could manage a roast dinner in a sauna......(you know what she's like ;-) ).


ja...x - it may just be worthwhile getting HID to take you to a store to have a look at ipads and things anyway. There may be something there which will be easier for you to use :-D


If you like reading, have you thought about a Kindle? They are very light and easy to use. The kids and I have put together to get OH one for Christmas. We don't travel now but, a friend of ours reckons it beats taking a pile of books away on holiday!


Shower time....~~~~~~~

See you all later - busy day today.

I had a different pregnancy with the 2nd one although I looked pregnant I put on less than a stone (14lbs) and she weighed 8lb something, so I lost that plus all the other bits when she was born.

I was having morning,afternoon,evening sickness throughout even up to an hour or so before she was born. Started getiing indigestion type pains when she was a few weeks old and got bad with violently sick for hours when she was about 6 weeks old. It was'nt until my wonderful caring husband eventually noticed ten months later, even though I had been to hospital for an endroscope (on my own) called a locum dr who sent me to hospital.

I do not know how many or how big mine were, they never told me

What about the smaller laptop ... a notebook one that doesn't have the calculator keys on the side... my daughter has both and uses the small one to cart to and fro to work.
I considered this do like my calculator on the side when I do a lot of spread sheet work... but it is dam cumbersome when I take it with me on the plane.
I can't be doing with taking it on the bus so I end up with notes everywhere when I go to the library.

Pity they can't come around to Jax so she can check out and see what suits.. They are all so buddy different. One Granddaughter has one thing and the other has another.

Gosh I can remember gramophones where you wound the handle... LOL.

Jax I see you have been reading the same page as my OH on gall stones... I had a piddly little bit of grit and my mother had two very very white powdery stones.

I weighed less after both my kids than I did before. The first one I lost heaps whilst pregnant.. damn annoying no one stood up on the bus for me .. nothing showed until the eighth month. With the second one I had mumps in the eighth month and was house bound.

Daughter off for a CT scan this arvo...

ja...x it would be worth trying to get to a shop which sells ipads so that you could see if they are right for you. They are very light but you need to check if it's right for you. You could also google I suppose. :-D
