Find Ancestors

Yawwwwwnnnn.


Went out to see Harry Potter last night.

So tired now.

Day off today.

I need it. Back on home visits tomorrow.

I think Dea is too overcome with the overnight chatter to make any comments!

Thanks for breakfast Sylvs.....of course you can go away....just not too often!



I have a feeling that both R and Jonesey are sitting with damp cloths over their heads after reading those posts! :-D


Pumpkin bum! Love it!

Bus journey.......er, no fanks.


Renes....haven't a clue what happens in Spain, that's just what the RC church 'rulings' state :-S


Hi Grace......how is your friend with the autistic child? Kiwibird on Sue's thread has got snow too and is very excited ....... bless :-D


Hiya ja...x welcome back - don't work too hard now! Do the council still provide special keys for public toilets for the disabled? I can certainly understand your dilemma and that's why my mum was very wary about how long she was going to be out etc. It was like planning a military campaign checking access to this and that - lifts, ramps, toilets, wide doorways......a whole host of things to be thought through before we could go anywhere.

I remember we were due to change our car and wanted one which would take 5 of us plus dogs, wheelchair etc. It would have to be a second hand one so we went to a reputable dealer and decided we liked a Prairie - not made now I don't think but a bit like a people carrier.

Anywhere, there we were with our hearts set on this and we got mum to the door to help lift her in........couldn't do it. The seat was too high, she didn't have the strength to hoist herself up and, as I would be the one taking her out, I couldn't lift her either. Back to the drawing board. Can't remember what we got instead but think it was a hatchback of some kind.


Must stop wittering as we've have friends coming....see ya later ~~~~~

Nite nite Sylvs - glad you are feeling better!

Thanks for the lovely breakfast.

Dea Xxx <3

night night everyone

You are always away sylv :-D Good luck to you

Just wish I could go somewhere without panicing that there will not be a toilet accessible ect

Just been googling my aunt...she must have had plastic surgery although my cousin said 4 years ago we had good genes...I'm not sure about this one.

Have you got snow Persie? my mate has in St Helliers

going to bed night x

All this RC talk we now have the confessional open.

And I must've been naughty because my emoticons have disappeared.

Pressed refresh and now they feel much better and have come back.
;-)

I will do the odd meal ... and when I say odd I could very well mean odd.

Persie

errrrrrrrrrrrrrr

perhaps I should confess that we will also be going away from Sept 1 to 6

:-D :-D :-D

Hi


thank you, yes. I am feeling much better. A good night's sleep always helps.

My mother died in 1985 and we kept her ashes at home... she had always said her ashes would be buried with her parents... no way was my dad going there. When dad died in 1998 we put both lots of ashes in the military cemetery with the most fantastic view and they have their copper plaque with their ranks and the fact that she was in the NZ expeditionary forces in the war.
I am happier they are both together.

My OH's uncle died in 1986 and it was only last year that his ashes (again kept at our place) were scattered from a certain pylon up in what is known as the Rimutukas ... just north of Wellington. He had to arrange with our Transpower company to go there and do it. We have donated a lot of his uncle's memorabilia to their museum. He was an engineer and responsible for the building of pylons.

On a lighter note... my boss where I worked did not approve of my mini skirts so he gave me a couple of longer smocks to wear... I shortened them.. and sometimes I would wear these bright orange knickers under them and my friend called me pumpkin bum..

Persie....

Hope you are feeling better Sylvia.. <3

Morning everyone, hope you have had a nice weekend.

Persie, yes I know about Bunnings.. the only place the other half liks to go shopping in...and can spend hours looking and come out with a 20 cent piece of sandpaper!

Sylvia, hope that you are feeling better and your stomach pain has gone.

Oh yuck fancy seeing that sight on the bus..no knickers! that would put you of your breakfast! LOL what would have happened if she had been hit by the bus..I thought you always had to wear clean knickers just in case!

Not a very nice picture Fans.

Very true about daughter she is also the spit of me and luckerly she has'nt got huge boobs hanging out like some of her friends

ja...x

The young woman walking up the stairs of a bus in the early 80s in London in a mini skirt did NOT wear matching knickers....She wore NONE...I know as I was walking up behind her....

Lucky my son was only 2 and didnt know what he was looking at....TUTs...........

Yellow Jax...Glad you and daughter had a good time...And of course she is growing up to be a nice young lady....She is your daughter after all....

Bed~~~~~~~~~~~

Cyns

Just wondered as we have had 2 cremations --- the last on Sat ( she was a friend of Pauls with Cancer who we hoped would make it) I remarked that her nicho would be next to Paul and I was told that her ashes would be scattered at her families cortijo and my friends Uncle -- who died 3 days after Paul -- ashes were either buried or scattered over his olive trees

Neither having a nicho ---- all RC naturally ( for a moutain village - )

Hiya all

Yes I am still here been busy doing bits and pieces.

Spent a nice afternoon with youngest daughter, she is growing up into a little lady.

I remember my youngest aunt who is 63 now wearing pelmets and frilly knickers to match, great big black hair do and huge false eyelashes. She has some business doing cosmetic stuff now and has treated some famous people according to her web page...looks remarkably good for her age unless its a very old photo

ja...x

I was just thinking that Renes........our Sylvs is a proper gadabout!

Glad you're better though Sylvs....... :-D


Renes, it means that a Roman Catholic may now be cremated (at one time it was not allowed), but their ashes must be buried, maybe in a family grave or special area set aside for cremated remains, as opposed to being scattered.

Is that helpful?

Syl

I reckon you and OH were Nomads in an earlier life


you two are always off galavanting somewhere

Cyns

what does
............. cremated but the ashes are to be interred.

mean please

Renes

By the way



we are going away on Tuesday morning for 8 days


Can you arrange to do the meals please?????


we'll be back about the 25 or 26th
