There, there.... you'll find it, now, take a deep breath, and cast your mind back..... no no.... you can breathe out again, sorry, blue is sooooo not your colour!! lol

Can you remember where it was when you last saw it? Could someone have been using it without your permission, and worn it away??

My suggestion is to lie down in a darkened room, and just ignore it.... open a bottle of sommat you fancy... and when you least expect it whoosh, you will remember.

Or go to the Rhesus thread. They are all nutters on there, lolol..... they might just come up with some unusual hiding places!!

Oh.... and put up some posters on the lamposts, someone might have seen it....

Love

It will burst forth with dandelions, anytime soon.
There are masses about this summer and their bright colour will help you notice them.
The garden will be found below them.

oh what's a board between friends lol

I think there should only be two boards - the genealogy board and the non genealogy board. I even think you should be able to chat about genealogy on the non genealogy board lol

how lovely just to chat on such a pleasant evening!

Well, dandilions are a very pretty yellow.... I have lots, lol

Did you have all those posh sounding plants last summer, or did you just put them on your wish list for Santa???

Give them time... poor little things have had a bad time over the winter, and are a bit afraid that bully Jacko le Frost hasn't quite gone back to Iceland for the summer.

007, I so agree with you!! Although I suspect that if someone has put a serious geneology request up for their gt Aunt Vera, and it gets lost in amongst all the erm, lost property threads and suchlike.... well, they might just get a bit grouchy and grumpy.

Maybe we could have a *TTF & Serious Stuff Board for Grouches and Grumps*

Night Watchman, please don't go.... we can so do serious and frivolous on these boards... oh and sometimes we can find lost stuff!

Now... where is that thread.... you remember 007, the one about GR Lost property? I left my marbles in there, a long time ago... wonder if they'll work now, or whether they need new batteries or something?

Love

no sadly, I didn't have any of those flowers! but a neighbour did! did you say you had lost your marbles there Daff! sure puts my little problem into perspective!

MrDaff

MrDaff Report 29 Apr 2010 19:38

Totally lost, honestly.... put them somewhere safe, and that was the last I saw of them..... you don't think maybe your neighbour has pinched some of your garden, do you?

I had (have) one like that..... he is selling his house and even put the for sale sign in my garden... I am wondering whether he was trying to sell me, too.... do you think I might be worth a lot even without my marbles??

Love

do you think it's possible my neighbour would sieze my garden and replace it with his? I do hope you find your marbles .... and soon!
