Very funny birthday boy . . . obviously too much red cordie tonight - or was it red jelly with the VB !! The lovely Ray is like a kid tonight - has collected everything he can find to decorate his office in the morning - can take the lad out of QLD - but take QLD out of the lad !!! He sent sms's to all and sundry saying his TV was broke can they tell him the final score! Off for some shut eye - catch ya all later cheers luv Laurie

Morning all Well b**g*r me, I got my first query today (no hot matches of course). .. Wondering if someone is pulling my leg .. she wanted to know if a particular rellie had sisters with the name Allagitey or Harragatta? Holey Moley - fancy naming your kids that? Freezing here (well it feels like it) .. think it will be a nice day later on. Jood

Moi again, Does anyone have means of checking Scotland for a George Ronald Lindsay - possibly with a wife Janet (but may not have been married) His estimate d.o.b is about 1880-1890. ANYWHERE in Scotland. I think I must hold the record of the smallest family tree - my father in law and his father .. full stop. Jood

Queensland won the footy.......convincingly...!!!!!! Yaaaahoooo! Anna PS Morning all

Good Morning Good morning....

Morning All. blinking cold here this morning. The dam has frozen, now just waiting for some ducks to land, so I can wait them skate acroos the top, lol. Well, after our weekend in Qld, I backed them by 20 points to beat NSW! So guess who wins the chocolate in the office today, yummmmm. Bit late getting started this morning, so I'm off. Have a great day. Dr Lew *pops chocolate covered pill into mouth and washes down with tea* (15)

I think one of the pommy girls wanted to know about the ship 'Moffatt'. So this is what I found: Arrival Plymouth to Hobart Town 1834 May 9 Arrival to Sydney 1836 Aug 31 ship Departure Sydney to Bombay 1836 Oct 13 Arrival Sheerness to Hobart Town 1838 Apr 1 Arrival to Sydney 1838 Apr 26 barque Arrival Plymouth to Sydney 1841 May 31 Arrival Plymouth to Hobart Town 1842 Nov 28 barque Departure Sydney to China 1843 Feb 6 Perhaps it was Kal. Now who were you looking for? Dr Lew x

Morning Lew Lew. It was Kal. He had a convict relly aboard, but has been unable to find any info on the ship itself.

Morning All Derr I am really not with it yet this morning, I started typing a message without using word or notepad and I forgot a name so I stupidly decided to use the back arrow to look for the name I couldnt remember and then I tried to go forward back to the message I was typing and it wasnt there boo hoo. Anyway I have only just got outta bed, decided to have a lay in, it is a heatwave here as it is alreaddy 11 degrees, DD at camp should be happy, she is well rugged up and took lilos, sleeping bags and a big double bed Sherpa (I think that is what they call them) blanket, she can double in half, so she should be warm in the tent. Welcome to the Newbies. Butterfly from WA. Hi I was about yesterday but only had enought tim to read and not reply to thread, I see where you have benn now given the title of bavy of the group lol. Rebs had beat me by 2 days to the title, as Rebs and Donna said 62 was a good year. Mags in UK welcome I havent met you yet, hopefully we will as I will be about most of today, it is a great bunch of nutters on here, except me as they havent met me yet, apart from 2 on here and I am really the quiet one lol. Kal, hi we have met through here, I remembered the name and when you mentioned your convict ancestor I thought ooh I took a pic of his brick on the Convict trail at Campbell Town, welcome to the thread. Well must have breakky and go for a walk will be back after. Cheers Sue

*waves night night as she wanders through the thread on the way to bed*

Good morning Waffling Wattlers, a beaut looking day out there on the Bay, found myself a nice cosy spot in the sun after Ray left for work to do some reading - should have been out of here by now, heading for the library in the city - but, It will have to be the 10am bus now. There are 5 giraffes with their heads held high in the sunshine, and I can see where they are putting together the 4 new ones that arrived on the ship last week. Good on you Barb . . . I see where she gave the man of the house a new broom for his birthday! Ray told me last night we will be off to Jakarta again early July, going via Perth again - for a few days - so hopefully I will get to meet my new cuz Stuart. Just thought, maybe the flutterby might like a coffee one day too ???? Will let you know as it gets closer flutters . . . Lew, are you alright luv, no mention of days this morning - . . . . . . . just taking 15 choc coated pills now are we !! Well have a great day all - will catch you later in the day, library bag and Myers card neatly stowed . . . cheers luv Laurie
