Find Ancestors

I've had word back from Murray......he thought he had started his own thread.....it's been a long time since he was on here apparently. :-)


Shopping, lots of ironing......and playing around on the puter........that's my day!

Actually got round to persuading OH to come to my favourite coffee shop this morning........he is such hard work at times. I brought home a piece of their delicious chocolate brownie cake, and have just eaten it warm with ice cream.....


I take it you'll be keeping your landline then Gins....??

we had the weirdest weather yesterday


Morning ............... cloudy with some sun, about 10 or !!c ...... .......

.............. which was just fine for the almost 49,000 runners in the 10 km Vancouver Sun Run. Most of them wore shades of blue and yellow in honour of the Boston Marathon people. Overshadowed in the world news of course by the London Marathon


Afternoon ................ about 1 pm, heavy dark clouds, pouring rain, hail ................. all weather that was not foreseen by the meteorologists, and surprised even them


Later ................. from about 4 pm, full sun, cloudless blue skies

:-S :-S

Hello to Murray (who is a new poster).

Jonesey, I'll send a pm to him with some of my friendly advice on it and, maybe, get him to repost his query on FA to help him get used to the boards. There are several possible contacts for him on here. :-D

Gins I was about to upgrade to that :-S tried Google chrome and had to uninstall it cos it was driving me mad.


Dea would be lovely if we could all meet up we spoke about that recently on the dark side :-D

Now going to try and post this have had the eror message every time I try to post tonight :-|

BTW .....


the authorities over here (police, security etc) would much prefer that everyone continue to have a land line phone, in addition to their cell phone.


They maintain that it is much safer that way.



We ourselves have a security alarm system that is connected to the phone line ..................... not sure how it works if you do not have a land line.



You can get broadband for your computer from your cable system here ................ so the same company that provides our TV service is the one that we use for broadband ............. it's "bundled together". We could also get our land line phone connected to that same bundle, but prefer to keep it with the phone company.

Of course, in the way things are here ..................... we could also do the reverse ............ bundle our TV and broadband cable service with the phone company!

Gins ...............


I gave up on IE months ago.


I find Mozilla Firefox much better.
