Hi,

In the condition we left left the Cemetery in, I found it hard to get out of the car, when I got home!!! Sat now with a 'butty' and a 'cuppa'.  And I'm not moving for anyone!!

Cleared more mud, brought less home, but cannot get it off hands!! ;)

Off tomorrow to get another hoe and brush!!  Do they make anything now, that doesn't bend or snap!!!

Same as: 'looking forward to next time'!!!!

Count done today was 155!!! ;D

In the New year will visit office again and match up grave numbers with names

Feet up now, settled in, still not moving!!!! :-* (if only I could)

Cancan :)

Congratulations and thank yous to all of you for your hard work.  I hope to benefit from the transcriptions in due course as I have many Manchester ancestors.  If I can get up to help sometime, I will; but Gloucestershire is a long way south!

I know words are easy, but I'm sending a lot of grateful thanks all the same.  :)

Well done to you all! - I try and follow this thread and what a great effort you are all doing.  I love your new website too.  How wonderful that the Family History magazines have picked up on this story - perhaps you will gain some new helpers.

Best Wishes :)
