I have to admit it was a struggle MO. Sleep tight.

Sallie, don't blame yourself, It is highly unlikely that any of us would have thought to get the address.. It may be that Julia is ex directory so you wont find her. Do you know her surname. I am not sure if the name that came up on contacts is her married or maiden name and now just an initial.

Mo, I havent lost a lot of weight, but it is better to do it slowly anyway.

Sallie and others, if you can find a place where Julia has posted in the past, can you click on her name and see if it gives a surname? You can then check freeBMD to see if it is her married name or maiden name.

Huia.

Just popping in - hello.

I sent a message on 31 January to Julia, not opened yet by her. Last had a message from her, 25 January, I think. I shall see if I can find a thread in which she posted.

Hi Joy, I've just been looking on freeBMD for a marriage under her maiden name, covering quite a few years( just by guessing the years) but there are no matches. Huia suggested it, so I thought I'd give a try....maybe they haven't covered all the area yet. Of course I'm assuming that they got married in Derbyshire, they might not have.


I've looked on all the pm's that she sent me, but the only thing I found was her maiden name.

Huia, thanks for that suggestion, I wish I could have found her marriage.
The surname G******* that she uses on here, is her married name.


I'll speak to you soon.

Love, Sallie.xxx

Hi Dont know if this is Julie but i sent her pm when i was collecting for the dogs ,and on her reply was the name Julie Springling fairydust***Pitt Evans try that,got to go not well been up all night again but just thought this may help

I am not sure that is the same one Joyce. If her married name is the one that comes up now when you send her a message it starts with G.

Hello Girls,

Heard from Joyce this afternoon, she's still suffering with cramp I'm afraid, and now she'a also got toothache as well. She's hoping that she can put up with it for next few weeks, when she's got an appointment with her dentist.
She was also telling me that she's feeling very down and doesn't want to go out and just wants to stay in .
Sounds like the "old black dog" to me. It would be nice if she had a friend that could speak English living nearby, so they could meet for coffee and a chat, or the friend could visit Joyce.


Ann, your scrapbook pages on your blog are lovely, I only wish that either Alun or myself could take photos as good as you. I still haven't seen the photos on your blog that I've sent, yet. As soon as I finished this post I'm going to have a look at them.

Joyce was asking about your blog, she was wondering what it was about, after she had read Mo's post saying that it would be good for Caz, Jean, Joyce and myself to join it.
Like me, she thought it was just for scrapbooking, so I told her it was for all crafts.



Mo, sorry I get your granddaughters mixed up, except of course, Lily. Not sure if you said that Lily and her mum and dad were going to visit you today. Or have I got that wrong? It's old age, as you know it doesn't come by itself.LOL! Anyway, if they did visit you, I hope enjoyed their visit.

Also hope that your are feeling a lot better now, so that you are able to do the things you enjoy doing again. Both you and Roly take care.



Huia, I hope all is well with you today, and that you have managed to go out on more walks. Take care.



I'll say bye for now, speak later.


Love and best wishes. Sallie.xxx

Ann, I've just looked at my photos on your blog and tried to reply to your comments, but it asked for my profile, don't know what that means. Sorry.
I'm not very good with all this computer jargon.

Love, Sallie.xxx

Hi there ladies.
I am late again tonight, but I just wanted you to know that all is well here.

What are we going to do with Joyce, that poor woman goes through enough,without having to suffer toothache as well.
Perhaps, if she turned into a nasty person, things would go better for her.
But Joyce has not got it in her heart to be that way inclined, bless her.
Take care of yourself Joyce, and if the tooth gets really painful, try and see if you can get an appointment sooner love.

Sallie, don't worry about getting my grandchildrens names mixed up. I do it all the time,and keep getting told of about it. But when they are all together, it's an easy thing to do.
We haven't seen Lilly and her mum and dad today, as dad had to work.
What time will Richard have to leave in the mornings,to get to his other work place.
It's lovely to hear that they have got the confidence in him, to temporarily transfer him,to another store.
He must have shown excellent progress in their eyes,for them to have done it.
Well done Richard.

It would be so nice if somebody was able to get some news about Julia.

I hope Caz is o.k,and enjoying her weekend.

I also wonder if Huia is out for her daily constitutional, or if she is busy with the book.

No Ann tonight either. I wonder if she is busy on her blog.

((((((((((((HUGS FOR MARIE)))))))))))))))) as we have not heard from her in a few days.

Lets hope Jean and J,had a safe journey,and are now able to relax for a while.

I will say goodnight god bless you all. Love and best wishes Mo xxx

Sallie does Richard have far to travel to get to Reading as it is on;ly about 10 miles from me.
It is a nice town now and has some lovely shops too.

I have been busy doing nothing as the song goes. At least I seem to have achieved little other than the everyday jobs, getting out for a walk and making up some parcels to go out to orphans and needy children in Bulgaria. Which I must get into the post tomorrow. Luckily hubby is off tomorrow or I don't think I would get them on the buggy to get there.

Have a good week everyone

Linda :o) XxX

No Mo, not on the blog, watching dancing on ice and Countryfile.

Sally, I am still trying to find out what people have to do to comment. As it is, if you want to put a comment I can do it for you if you email it to me.

Hi Linda, Richard lives in Langley, just on the edge of Slough, and about three and a half miles from Heathrow. The road he lives on is just off the A4, so it's quite handy for getting to a few places. He'll use his car to get to Reading, as the store has parking places at the back. I think each store have a number of parking places allocated to them.

I know when he worked at HMV at Windsor, they had four parking spaces allocated to them, and Richard was issued with a numbered parking badge, that he had to keep on display.


I've only been to Reading once, as you say it's a nice town with some lovely shops.

If Richard and Christie want anything special, they usually go to Reading,
they would sometimes go into Lodon, but I think it has become a bit too expensive for them.

I haven't done too much myself today either, cooked the Sunday roast, did a few odd jobs and spent a lot of time on the computer answering messages.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Ann, I'll send you the comment tomorrow. I thought it would be nice for you to receive comments about your blog, as long as they are nice ones, of course.lol!!


Goodnight all, speak to you tomorrow.


Love, Sallie.xxx

I spent some time on FMP this morning trying to find some of Phils elusive Gt uncles and their children. I had found them yesterday and printed out the transcript, but the images were not available at the time so I wanted to get them today, but when I typed in the name, age, etc exactly as on the transcript it came up with 'no results'. I had to type in the Piece, Folio and page numbers instead to find them. So how did I find them yesterday? Weird. At 11 a.m. I went in to Papakura a did a little shopping and took some photos and had my lunch then went to visit Phil. On the way back I finished my shopping.

Sallie, I got the message from your friend and looked in the phone book, but couldnt find the people she wanted at that address, so I have asked her for more info.

Huia.

I too will join the chain and send thoughts to Caz especially on Wednesday for good results for her.

Thank you ladies, I am keeping my fingers crossed that the blood count will be down, I've only had one lot of chemo though so not expecting much. I only came on because Joyce said she was putting something on, thanks Joyce, not on computer much these days as a painful back stops me sitting for long.

Love Caz xx
