We wish you all the best in this difficult time you are going through with health problems.

You have worked so hard as a moderator, and we wish to thank you ever so much for all the help you have given all of us. You've been such a wonderful help, it's been quite amazing!

It's difficult not to think of "KiwiBren" every time we hear of New Zealand on the news.

Post by: DotBrennan on Monday 21 June 10 22:29 BST (UK): Thanks everyone for your kind wishes.

It’s hard to remember my time on RC (pre-Mod) when I spent a huge amount of time doing lookups on a daily basis…....but life moves on.

It’s been a difficult 12-18 months on the home front, and despite Arranroots’ best efforts to get me to stay, I feel this is the right decision.

Bren.

Post by: DonL on Tuesday 22 June 10 05:54 BST (UK): Kia Ora Bren

Sorry to hear of your health problems - can understand that as I and my wife have had our fair share of scares over the past few years - it happens when you reach three score and ten plus.

Anyway, make the most of your days and I would like to personally thank you for the assistance and guidance you have offered over the past few years since I started on searching out my ancestors.

All the best - and take care

Post by: DotBrennan on Saturday 03 July 10 03:54 BST (UK): Thanks everyone.

Another “lost” week on the home front.
A family member was rushed to hospital last Saturday evening, and I eventually got home Sunday morning just before sunrise.
Then a week of 200+Km round trip visiting each day.
He’s home now, but still not out of the woods, with ongoing District Nurse visits.
Thoroughly enjoying the gorgeous sunshine today and seeing several loads of washing blowing in the breeze while I do very little else …

Bren.
