Hello all.
Jeffmack
You missed me! What can I say? I was very busy chasing down some ancestors and trying to read two wills that were over 250 years old. My eyes are just starting to recover and nmy brain hurts, those people never seem to bother with punctuation.
I'll get over it, big pot of sherry trifle and double cream will sort me out.

Afternoon Socs.
Not using punctuation is a lawyers trick, isn't it. Allows them to put any interpretation they like on the document.
I read a book without punctuation once. Can't remember what it was called.

Dawg..Will remind Morose in the morning; first thing I'll say to him.
He used to moan all the time, glad to say he's exactly the same in real life!!
Hi Socs; were you left anything in those wills?
To think I held the lead in the share game for several days; I felt very grand...lol..
Hils..cheers for mail..will give it attention and get back.

They were a bit before my time, they were written in the mid 1750's. Fascinating reading though I haven't yet fit the folks into my family tree. I know they do belong but not sure where. Problem is they often used the same christian names so it is difficult working out the generations.

I know that problem, Socs. I keep the 'extras' in a shoe box and their basics on post-it notes. I spent a minor ice-age in Register House last year, poring over property deeds and wills and wearing those little cotton gloves all day long! Occasionally I have a 'review' of who is still 'unattached' to the tree but the box just seems to get fuller. So you reward yourself with some sherry trifle. You deserve it...... Sleep tight!

ahhh, Vasey wearing little cotton gloves, how nice. :-)
Uncle Socks, Since i am your virtual nephew! anything in the deeds for me? something along the lines of a 36 bedroom mansion within 20 acres of beautiful gardens? Something like what Lord Hightone has got. :-)

Good evening all. Socks sweeps in, puts his brush down and grabs a bucket of sherry trifle. Then he falls in a heap on the floor, I've no idea who left it there.
Vasey, you have lami (Anag)

36 Bedrooms! Oh what a shame, I just turned one down because it only had 35 bedrooms. You should have spoken up earlier. Never mind, I saved you a bone. Thanks for updating t'game, I see I'm creeping up the leaderboard again, whoopee.

Blimey mateys, wasup, where's everybody; making money from a rising market both here and in the star spangled land.
Well, I just don't give a damn Scarlet, I'm going to relax with a firkin of Marstons Pedigree and halkf a dozen bags of pork scratchings and then, 'cos its so warm, I'm going to kip tonight on the cafe porch [or is it a ferrari?]. ThatI can have a pair of fresh, Friday delivered kippers from the smokery down in Dingle Dell.
