Not going to Wales tonight as I have started some anti biotics and they are making feel a bit off :-(

.............the worse thing, I cant touch a drop of booze......and its Friday :-0

Mates rates cheap Gins................



Jonesey, I remember your earlier story and started looking at some of my tree 'contacts' on A. I gave up after a while out of sheer frustration as I really couldn't be faffed with contacting people who have been stupid enough not to check they have the right people. I must have been in one of 'those' moods...... :-D


It may just be a case of collecting names (prize for the biggest tree), but the alacrity with which some folk add any old piece of info to their tree stuns me.



Got OH out for lunch today after we had a surprise visit from some folks we worked with a few years ago. A nice morning all in all.


Now I don't have to cook and can play around on here, there and everywhere to my heart's content..........I am easily pleased as you can tell. :-D

R.......you cheeky thing, I is a married woman ;-)


Jimmy has gone and the boiler is dead.......rest in peace you heap of useless metal :-P I aint payin £300 to resusitate it

So today, order new boiler for fitting on Monday, mates rates £1K

Postscript.

Those with good memories may recall that a short while ago I posted that one of our colonial cousins had made a "slight error" by assuming that one of my ancestors born in 1884 in Staffordshire was the father of one of their ancestors born some 16 years or so earlier in Tennessee. I pointed out the error of their ways by sending them a message. My message also requested that they remove my ancestor, his parents and siblings from their publicly accessible tree on Ancestry before some other hard of thinking person copied the inaccurate information.

I did not receive any reply but my message obviously got through because within 24 hours I noticed that my ancestor had been removed. His parents and siblings remained however amongst the list of persons in the tree although now entirely disconnected from the tree owners ancestors. So initially I was satisfied however a few days later I spotted that the tree owner was still downloading census records relating to my ancestors parents and siblings who did not have any place in the tree. It certainly looks as though the tree owner is just another name collector.

Trying to put a positive spin on things I did some research into the background of the lady who was born in Tennessee. I easily discovered from the US census records in 1870 and 1880 who her father really was. Further research revealed her parents marriage on 12/9/1854 in Wilson County, Tennessee and found earlier (1850 and 1860) US census records for her father together with the 1840 US census record for who I believe to be him and his parents. I relayed all that to the tree owner but as yet no response has been received.

Now I suppose the question is, if I, living in the Midlands could easily find such information why did the tree owner, an active Ancestry member who actually lives in Tennessee not find it or couldn't they be bothered to look for it?

The mind boggles.

I think that to test the efficiency of the boiler Ginny should have a shower with Jimmy

Hope you have a good weekend LK and the weather stays good for the wedding

Good luck for Wednesday <3

Waiting for boiler magician (Jimmy, from Friday club) to arrive and then maybe get a shower later

Off the Wales tonight, mom (Inlaw) has not been too good this week, thought we would go and cheer her up!

Put petrol in the car last night on the way home from Worksop, garage was full, but by the time I came out, they were queing down the road.....good old media...............dont panic buy

....................................so everyone does the obvious, and panics :-0
