Find Ancestors

Well, I'm not going to be left out so thought I'd muscle in and say "hello".

Hello Jonesey, how you doing xxx

Problem with coming on here is I've got to read the thread back to front or else it crashes so I'm all confuddled.

I know I've been missing in action .....................

GR is so boring these days ............... not this thread ........

.......... but overnight there's hardly any new threads


so I've got myself interested my own tree again ..................... and forget about everywhere else!


then there was also ns, the spoiler


mea culpa!


thank you Jonesey for waking us all up again

Hi everyone
xx


I'm here as well!

I is here too .....

Coming in to the light, from the dark side .......

Pull the curtains .....

the lights reflecting of all youse halos ..... :-D

Just popped in to say "hi" to Fred.

Had a new hot water heater installed yesterday. My two workman looked like they could be in a ZZ Top cover band.

(Didn't really get a good look at their legs-so I don't know how they compared with Cyn's neighbour's window guys.)

Beautiful sunny day here. Got a family of cardinals twittering around.

Moxx

Droop? Droop? How very dare you tell the truth LK ..... ;-) Thank you for the eye drops tip.


Well, I hope Jonesey is feeling a little happier now that he has gathered his harem around him once more.............:-D


Today, I have renewed my car insurance (son reckons I've got a good deal Jonesey); dealt with my decorator; took my friend out for a coffee and finally, tidied up my computer desk. :-D


Am going for a browse to relax for a while................

Eh.......nothing is drooping on me........at the moment

OMG, that bird from the other side of the world is back, how come I never got a warning :-0

I'm guessing Fred will be playing a more proflic role on FA from now on!

Nice one Jonesey

Unless you meant droopy eyes.

Sorry dear but lots of things droop at your age.

Cyntthia

Avert those eyes at once. ;-)

You will get seared eyeballs.

Eye logic spray or Systane drops are brilliant for tired dry eyes.

When the surface of your eyes get dry the natural lubrication is not there so an irritant response causes them to tear up but this only gives temporary relief and the cycle goes on.

LK,

Of course I miss you. <3 <3

Cyn,

Get your mind off those window fitters legs and concentrate on higher things. ;-)

As far as car insurance is concerned use the comparison websites to discover by how much your current insurers are most likely overcharging you. When the prices are in go back to your current insurers. You may be pleasantly surprised by how much "Valued customer" discount they offer you to stay with them. I know I was when mine reduced the original renewal premium quoted by over £100. :-D

Oooooooh! How nice to see Persie and LK.....and our dearest Dea of course :-D


Jonesey......I is a woman....I has eyes in the back of my head remember and there is nowt wrong with my sense of smell either........you forgot to open the back door!


Not only am I being entertained by my lovely decorator and his radio, but next door still has the window fitters in. I am being treated to the sight of men's legs as they go up and down the ladders...... ;-)


Added to which, the burglar alarm man called for the annual check up - which I had forgotten about


have dropped OH off for his morning constitutional


and I am waiting for a call from my car insurance people and am ready to pay out the proverbial arm and leg..... :-(


Tell you what...................the excitement never ends rounds here....... :-S


LK, can you recommend some eye drops for a drippy eye please?

Ahh Jonesey you miss me. <3 <3

You are right in that I have not been on here much for a while.

I have been working longer hours and have been tired when I get home.

I have also spent time updating my FTM after my disaster on there.

You would of course be welcome to join us if you change your mind,



Gins.......bless you.

And happy birthdday JB.

SAVE OUR FRED

Persie,

Lovely to see you back where you belong. :-D

Cyn,

Not sure how you managed to spot me having a crafty fag from where you are. Yesterdays facial must have improved your long vision as well as your visage. :-P

Dea,

Get your thinking cap on. <3

Come on now Mr Jones... we can't have you down in the dumps.. I will pop in and keep the thread up where we belong as Joe Cocker said..


Yep Dea you have a thunkity think whilst you are chomping on your bacon (I had some for my dinner tonight) .. mushrooms and tomatoes..


Persie xx ;-)

Good morning all :-D

The sun is shining and it's a lovely bright day :-)

I will have the bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes and a slice of toast - thank you Cynthia, it is delicious ! <3

You are right Jonesey, there are not many of us left on here and I too miss the hilarious times we had together in the past.

We will have to do something about this, but what ??

Will have a think and be back later,

Dea Xxx

Good morning.............whoever is around :-D



I know what you mean and how you feel Jonesey, and I'm sorry about the decline too. I suppose life moves on and the dark side has certainly had an influence on here. :-(


Although I visit over there regularly, I try not to forget my roots and friends on here..... :-D


Happy birthday to JB..........sounds as though Gins is in for a very busy day.... :-D


Now for breakfast............

The kettle is on and the porridge is bubbling merrily.

The bacon is sizzling nicely and smells lovely.....and there are mushrooms, tomatoes and black pudding.

Lots of bread available for toast.

Fresh crumpets and croissants are available.


There is a choice of cereal for those who want something lighter


Enjoy and have a good day.


Jonesey! You know you are not allowed to smoke in the house.....>>>>>>>tuts.


I promise to be back later - but have got the decorator in and taking my friend out this afternoon.

I'm sad to see activity on "Fred" decline as it has during the past few weeks. Particularly sad because reduced activity means that Fred's core message, contained in its title, (Which as I write I note has been viewed by over 12,500 individual GR members during Fred's existence.), has I'm sure prevented many hundreds of duplicated posts, is often now displayed on the 2nd or even 3rd page of the Find Ancestors board instead of near the top of the 1st page.

There are I'm sure many reasons for the decline. Natural wastage as regular contributors move on, the move of some "Old stagers" to activities on the Dark side and perhaps even the constant GR error message which causes much frustration to some when trying to post.

Whatever the reasons I feel that if "Fred" is to continue to do its good work into the future it needs a shot in the arm or a boot up its backside. I for one certainly miss the friendly, humorous and sometimes hilarious posts that used to regularly appear.

Ideas and suggestions as to what can be done to ensure Fred's survival should be posted on this thread.

Mornin all~~~~

Thanks LK, I think I might give them a go, if I get time to go to the chemist!

Teaching all day, then to the hospice and then back here, quick shower and off to the pub for a couple of drinks with mates, takeaway on the walk back home, bottle of wine and kick mates out...........bed

It's JB's birthday today <3

Can recommend alomide eyedrops for your eyes Gins.

Available over the counter in hayfever season only.

You do need to take it every day though.

Sylvs is around on the dark side - has gone to a doc's appointment today.......


Just finishing watching Ice Age......I don't normally like cartoons, but find this series so funny.......Sid is just lovely.......bless him....lol :-D


Night all..............~~~~~
