Right Susan, well when you are more errr presentable and coiffured and groomed etc, and you decide to visit Daff in Wales let me know in time and I will try and arrange another holiday in the area, missing Llanelli as haven't been for more than a year now and I like it there! Then I can meet up with you both too, not the first time tho or won't get a word in edgeways lol

Susan

Next time I am up there, half term ish time, let me know what you want looked up

Kim

deleted a double post...sigh!

Ah! but what did you talk about Posh P Sue?.... 3 Hrs? would take me about 3 days...what with the adlibing and all.......did you have far to go?

Hi Kim,

My other lot are from Durham and Newcastle so waiting for the 1911 census and hoping they tell me more than the 1901.

I went to the Civic Centre in Newcastle a couple of years ago ( they have changed it now ) the info there was overload and as I didn't really know what I was looking for I need to visit again now that I do. I met and stayed with a cousin I didn't know anything about until I found a long lost Uncle.....it was difficult combining chat with research.

Don't know how I missed that Ann.....sheesh...must have had my head in the 1911......Tsk! our Daffy.....yer could have let me know...tis not as if yer have anything to do these days..Selfish is what I call it....... ( puts on hard hat Lol )

Susan, have you not seen that Daff is not in hospital, she isn't good enough for them yet!!! has to wait until Monday.

Hi Susan

My lot come from Durham and I am in south of England, but go to Durham RO a couple of times a year.

I's surprising how many I have met who are GR members but don't add to the boards

Kim

HI SUSAN ~~~~~WAVES

Lol Daff

I thought I read that you were not taking your Laptop with you this time....Hmmm! spying now lol

~~~to Ann~~~

Hi Joy & Gwynne

I expect it would be a bit difficult to combine nattering with research. I know when I have been with a cousin, and another time with Oh, that it was difficult to focus on the job at hand and found it easier if alone....but maybe that is just me.

Lol David I deleted the bit where I likened you to Simon Cowell...(coward that I am )..I take it that it is ok to put it back now :-)))))

YES
I HAVE MET LOTS OF PEOPLE
WHO HAVE INTRESTS IN MY HOME TOWN
I HAVE SHOWN THEM ROUND OUR ARCHIVE DEPARTMENT AND THE MAIN LIBRARY FAMILY HISTORY SUITE
AND TAKEN THEM ON A TOUR OF THE AREAS
THEIR FAMILY LIVED
BUT THE BEST WAS TO REUNITE LOST COUSINS
THAT WAS VERY REWARDING

One day Daff, one day!!!

Sorry Susan, I missed that bit :) Er no I'm nothing like him!

See what happens when folk think I'm not around.... maligned, I am, much maligned, lolol!!

Liz, our Susan promised, in public, on the World Wide Web, that she would come to Wales and meet me... she did, she did, then this dratted illness got in the way... but I'll get her down here yet, you mark my words!!

Love

Daff xxxxxx

Susan had to wait to do my research as Daff got to the nice helpful lady before me AND she had some paperwork with her

I've met a few members in their local ROs where they have shown me the ropes, which has saved a lot of time.

But the Ladies wot Lunch meets are all about puddings, and nattering, really.

Gwynne

Claire...You actually got research done?...with our Daff?.....not saying a word til she gets home and can defend herself lol

Morning Liz :-))..... if you saw the state of me at the moment with paint in my hair, overalls, chipped nails and hair that needs cutting.....'twould be a scary sight that would be enough to give you a heart attach.

wmsl, Sue - the day we see Susan at a meet will be the day a pig flies across the sky lol, she is the most elusive, evasive person I know lol
One of these days I will turn up on her doorstep, well the caravan doorstep lol that'll flummox her!

Lizxx

I went to the Family History Meeting in Cwmbran with Tina but took nothing with me. Daff & I both got some work done although I had to borrow a pen to write it down.

Planned already, chloroform, bag over your head and you'll wake up in an undisclosed location surrounded by GR nutters, you know you will love it
:-))

xx

and here was me thinking it was a posh word


If you get me to a meet...bring a gun so's I can shoot meself ....I am the original Mrs antisocial lol
