No I was not gallavanting, merely working outside.... it has just got cold and so came in and have been doing a bit of tidy up... and just stuck my cottage pie in the oven.

As for breakfast you will have to make do


With pancakes and Maple syrup, grand marnier or golden syrup.

Cereals in the pantry

Hot = Mushroom quiche, spanakopita, falafels in pita pockets, or aubergine parmigana.

There is sides of bacon, sausages and hash browns.

Chocolate muffins, and a bread & butter pudding with whisky in it, gluten free, or pumpkin scones (gluten free)

Coffee, and drinks on the bar.

Good morning everyone,

Hope that you had a nice weekend. It is a lovely sunny Monday here, very mild day predicted (before it is to change and become cold again)! I am going to a wedding on Friday and it is expected to be very cold and wet...poor couple Spring is so unpredictable!

Had a massive house clean on Saturday, I don't know what got into me! Changed all the beds did ten million loads of washing, washed and tidied all my kitchen drawers, scrubbed the bathroom to within an inch of its lofe, cleaned the windows and vacummed. Went to have a nice shower and a pipe had burst in the street so no water for 5 hours lol just my luck! Beautiful weather though, windy and sunny and all the windows and doors open!

Thats the exact place he gives on Naval records...Hatfield, Broad Oak,Essex...

But St Pancras on 1911 and Camden Town on WW1 records....

But the addy he gave for next of kin in 1901 does have his surname at it,so may have something to work with there,although he gives his next of kin as a different surname....and its almost illegible.....BIG sigh.

Marriage cert really needed here for fathers name if he knew it,not that I think witnesses will be any good though as he married many many miles from London...

More sighs....Gives up until tomorrow now as going boss eyed....

:-S

It could come under Hertfordshire some of my lot were born in Ware, sawbridgeworth, Bishops Stortford, Takely its on the border with Essex and Hertfordshire

It is sometimes called Hatfield Broad Oak reg district could be Dunmow, but if you have looked at Essex it may not be there then

Just looked up three of Mine that say Broad Oak and they were all registered in Dunmow

FannyByGaslight Report 4 Sep 2011 22:38

And no sign of a birth in St Pancras or Essex area for him and he does give same date of birth on everything...

What would Broad Oak come under for reg Jax?

Cynthia Report 4 Sep 2011 22:19

The Royal Marines are part of the Naval service along with the Royal Navy.

My grandad was a Royal Marine. I got his records from the NA.


There is a website for the RMs.

OK..Got him...But that makes it worse...Grrrrr.

Born St Pancras on 1911,born Camden Town on WW1 records and Born Broad Oak Essex on Naval records Arghhhhhhhhhhh.

But at least he does keep the same name and date of birth....But a VERY common or garden name...Sigh..
