Find Ancestors

Just Googled Dea.......it started in 1955 well before I was born and ended when I was a nipper!

Is anyone doing the fully monty this morning? If not, I'll get the veggie sausage out with some eggs and mushrooms

George Dixon WAS 'Dixon of Dock Green' Ginny ;-) :-D

Thank you SO much for the toasted tea cakes Ginns - they were delicious <3 <3

I didn't eat them all so there are plenty left for the others.

Dea Xxx

I have heard of Dixon of Dock Green, Ive seen clips on tv :-P Never heard of George Dixon though

Good morning all :-D

Thank you for putting the kettle on Ivy - a cup of tea would be most welcome <3

Ginns - no - I had not been on the red wine again, I learned my lesson the last time I had some.

You arrived and said:

Evening all...........

Which was how George Dixon (Dixon of Dock Green) used to greet us all MANY years ago on the TV. His assistant was Andy Crawford who ended up marrying George's daughter.

As I said, you are probably just too young to remember them (that is going to be 'your' excuse anyway ) ;-)

Isn't Sylvia back today ?

Dea x

Well, I m gonna have a cuppa with our new friend Ivy....while ignoring that Cyns woman :-P


It took about 3 minutes to get to JBs work last night, unlike 20 minutes during the day time traffic. The place is a tip as they have major renovations going on, so lights were not available in some rooms......bit spooky


Ive put some toasted tea cakes out, with croissants to see our Dea through ;-)

Good morning Ivy, nice to see you. :-D


Seems as though this lot are ALL sleeping the sleep of the just!


Erm........looks like Persie isn't around and Sylvs is still away.


First things first..........coffee......thank you for boiling the kettle Ivy.


Will just have a look in the cupboards to see whats on offer but don't want to get in Persie's way so will sit and drink this coffee in peace for a while.




Dea.....love the George Dixon ref. Poor Gins doesn't know what she's missed....... :-D



Re tops of cupboards. I used to put plastic stuff on the top of cupboards too. My kitchen unit cupboard doors are quite high so, to avoid climbing, I bought a mop thingey from Lakeland - with a triangular head - and I can now clean them from a standing position. The mop is very versatile and can be used for all sorts. The head swivels and reaches into corners etc.


I have a gas cooker and find that gas is messier than electric but I still prefer it.


Gins dear......what makes you think an intruder would stay behind knowing YOU were on your way........ :-P


Will have a little mooch and see if Persie turns up........sure gonna miss those breakfasts of hers :-(

Hi, I've boiled a kettle if anyone wants a cuppa....

- perhaps not Gins, who sounds as if she needs a lie-in this morning

- I'll cross my fingers that the burglar alram doesn't go off again tonight Gins!

Well, jolly nice of the police to wait........me and JB had to check the whole building before leaving!

Just about to go to bed..............phone call from the police.....JBs work alarm is going off


......................Guess whos taking him :-(

LK,

My one got away with it.

Goodnight all. I am now going to bed to sleep the sleep of the just.

That's those who just managed to make it up the stairs that is.

Hello George !!

How's Andy Crawford ??

Dea Xxx



?????????????????????? I have been looking for a post from a George? Cant find one. Dea as yer bin at the red wine again :-0

I have one of those too Jonesey.
I found a transcript of the court case.
The strange thing is when he comes out of prison he goes back to his first wife and has more children with her.
I have not found much on the person he "married" though.

Sorry Ginns - you might not be old enough to remember George Dixon ???

Dea Xxx

Hello George !!

How's Andy Crawford ??

Dea Xxx

Evening all...........

As you all know, I have been physically unable to do much in the way of cleaning in my house for the past couple of years !! (BORING !!!)

Anyway, I managed to persuade my lovely hubby to tackle the tops of my kiichen cupboards yesterday - SO greasy, especially over the cooker !! (I am ashamed !! :-()

Over the past many years I have been saying to him - it would be a good idea to put a layer of plastic covering of some sort on there so it would make cleaning easier but nothing ever happened.

Anyway, guess what he has been doing today ?? - After a whole day of scrubbing, he decided that he didn't want to do that again so he has spent all day today cutting out plastic covering to put on the tops of the units !! ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Just popped in where is everyone? sighs^^^^^^^^ going orf to watch film on channel 4 pop back later

Dea how is your OH improving I hope

That rings a bell Persie....I think my grandson had that a bit later on.


He's now got a 'girlfriend' so we don't get much of a look in these days..... ;-)



Going off to see him shortly.

My grandson Evan will be 11 this month.. he was rushed in the ambulance when he was six weeks old... he had Bronchiolitis... he stopped breathing and then again a few days later he stopped again..

Was such a worry but he is full of life now..

OH and I will be taking him for a day out for his Birthday.. Last year it was a couple of weeks after he had his appendix out and here we were on a sailing Scow with him helping unfurl the sails and pull on the ropes etc.


Persie

You are so very blessed indeed Cynths - thank goodness he recovered!

Give him a birthday hug from me too ! <3
