Goodness a heated debate already. Am I ever in luck!!

It might be "football" at that side of the planet but over here it is "soccer". OK I will add that as more and more Aussies are dragged kicking and screaming to soccer matches (or given free tickets), the term "football" to denote soccer seems to be more in use.

Oh heavens I'm not used to this. Been looking around the GR site. Few changes, everything seems to be very neat and tidy. Actually read their guidelines for message board use and had a look at the new Search Records button.

Don't know if I'm quite ready to return to family history research yet. Haven't the courage to go look at my other email box either. That is going to be full of family history messages. Oh heavens I've forgotten all about the A place. Wonder if the tree is still there!!

Just had a look see around the alternative email account and the tree. 130 messages on the email account mostly from family history services extolling the virtues of replying to their messages.

Had a look at the tree. A bit on the droopy side, looks like it hasn't been watered or pruned for a while and indeed it hasn't. Eight messages in that area from people who probably think I'm a right wally not to reply to their messages.

Oh well that can wait for another day or two. I need to go to bed now. Also need to see how the cricket match with India is going.

Sorry to have missed your reply - daily duties called.

With BM living away from home, we don't get the updates to the cricket, although one of the England players has withdrawn due to health issues. That made the main news, as opposed to sport news, TV headlines.

Once you get round to answering those messages, your tree will be reinvigorated. And the one on the other site will still be there - you just won't be able to see any records you may have attached unless you pay for a sub.

Sleep well. Hopefully some of the others will be around when you next log on.

Aunty's back!!!!!!!! Oooooh I'm soooooooooooo excited!!

No Aunty, I didn't know which side of the train to look out of!!!! LG has never told me!! My head was spinning on my neck like a whip and top!!!

Dare I say, very quietly, sssshhhhhhh>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
on both journeys I missed viewing that unmentionable place that sells red and white scarves!!! My head was buried in a book!!

WELL AT LEAST I DIDN'T USE MY FINGERS TO MAKE RUDE SIGNS LG!!

I am back home safe, sound but knac*****!! And to top it all the bloomin' lappy refused to boot up because of some problem. Thank goodness for system restore!! I must admit that I.E. is causing a lot of problems at the moment, forever not responding, so I think it's time I had a visit from my lovely little computer man!!

Morning you lot. Pleased you are pleased I've returned to the fold.

I have missed you all and the cyber pets. Was wondering if they had been invited to participate in the Royal Wedding.
We need to get buy sewing their outfits, if that is the case. Oh ugh sewing, no let's not do any sewing for a while.

YG to compensate for your inability to view the (un)hallowed halls of that place I have a web site you might like to visit.

http://www.sa.firies.com.au/2011calboys.html

Hmm I'd better test the link again and just check that it is working!!!

I'm off to work shortly. Will catch up again this evening.

AuntySherlock Report 24 Mar 2011 20:20

Thank goodness. The link works. Sigh!!

And I've managed to find the reply button.

So stupid, I've been scrolling up and down to the bottom of the screen to type my replies.

Thinks to self, there used to be a button to click on so the reply screen comes up. Where is it. Oh yahoo!! There it is. This is much easier.

Did I say we lost the cricket. Oh well it's footy season now!!

LaGooner Report 24 Mar 2011 20:25

LOL Aunty, the site has changed a bit hasn't it. As for the cp's I am more than convinced that Sweetpea has found a little 'friend' and there are even more of those damn Gremlins at work. We all seem to get so many problems so have a good search round and see if you can find any of those small ones about.
