My message has been opened too.

I have messaged Sylvia before, when we have noticed her absence and she replied within a day or so, so I hope we hear soon.

Yes mine has been opened. Maybe she doesn't realise that she can reply even if her subs have expired. You can also send a message to somebody you have conversed with before if your subs have expired.

So glad sylvia has opened the message at least we know shes ok.

Maybe she cant reply as her subs have expired??

Lets hope shes in touch soon and all is well.

Cold cloudy day and woke up to some frozen hail and ice here.

Not out today so shall continue with list of jobs to do.

Got a pan of veggie soup on the go for tea with crusty bread tonight and....
going to make pancakes without eggs or butter!! I found a recipe and going to try it out.

Off to be busy now

I wonder if her subscription has run out. Hopefully she will reply You can reply to a message even if you aren’t a paid member, you just can’t send a message without a subscription

My PM to Sylvia has been opened . . . . . .

I hope that Sylvia sees her messages and replies.

It was a lovely sunny day here, but very cold. It it now very dismal and according to the weather forecast we are going to have rain from about 8 pm all night

As it is half term, I don’t have to do my school reading, so I have spent the afternoon doing family history. I managed to find lots of baptisms and marriages for one family branch, so am very pleased with that. There must have been an update on Ancestry because they weren’t there before .

I've messaged too.

It's only just after 8.30 am there so the day will only just be starting.

So have I.

I've sent a PM. Not opened yet, but too soon to expect that.

I have not seen her, I don't think she is on facebook.

Gwyn asked earlier about Sylvia and now I realise its been awhile since she was on here.

Anyone else heard from her recently? Does she have FB?

Afternoon everyone looking in.

Beautiful sunny day here but with a cool breeze of course but none the less a lovely day.

Just finished a huge pile of ironing whilst OH stripped and remade the bed. teamwork is dreamwork as they say lol.

Few more usual chores to do and then decide whats next for the rest of the afternoon.

Hope everyone ok today and that some of you have the sunshine that I do :-D

Afternoon all

Its a bright sunny day after some light dustings of snow which has gone.But the easterly wind is making it very cold outside.

My bulbs are growing so quickly its hard to believe its only still Feb!

We went out for a valentines meal last night which was very enjoyable.

Just made chinese chicken for tea with mixed pepper rice tonight, something different for a change.

The wind was very high last 2 days here but has also abated now.

Keep warm all

Well, we're back to the rain and cloud, after three whole days of sunshine.
But at least that means it's not frosty, so the house feels warmer, thank goodness.

It was bucketing during the night, and I woke to find lots of puddles in the garden.
There's quite a lot of snow on the hills, but none down at this level.

Perfect genealogy weather!

Very wet here but starting to brighten up. 7 degrees still quite chilly but I have no plans to go out.

Stay warm everyone, hopefully spring will come eventually.

Hi Linda.
I was woken up around 4-00 am by gusty winds, couldn't get back to sleep so just laid until daylight came in at about 7-00 ish.
About an hour later the wind had abated thank goodness, the sun has been shining for most of the morning & no snow today.

It is still really cold but it is still February so not expecting it to warm up just yet, but it can't come quick enough, it seems to have been cold forever.

Joan.

We woke up to a covering of snow this morning, but it has mainly disappeared I hope that it isn’t too bad for everyone else

Sunny here also and yes Ann even the H/W seems better when the sun shines although it does show up the dust that has settled more.

Joan, I agree with you it would be great to get out in the garden to just potter around for a short time but still too wet and cold at the moment.

Have a nice weekend all.

We have crept up to 3 degrees and it is beautifully sunny. Very cold of course but I have no plans to go out. even doing the dreaded housework is better if the sun is shining.

Ow wow, it is sunny and not raining here as well. Only one degree, but you can’t have everything
