                         Thanks to Spatts, turnerchimes & Beannie!!!


Yes I agree great day!!!

Hopefully next Sunday will be the same for the weather!!

Think we'll pay for it tomorrow though!!

It is taking time having to redo a couple of sections, but were getting there now!!!

Looks like it will start getting easier :-\

Off for a cuppa now before tackling the garden and taking dog for a walk!!!

Cancan ;D

                                    'Groundwork Dates for March'

WEATHER PERMITTING!!!

Dates in mind are  Sunday 6th March       9.30/10am - 1.30pm
                         Sunday 13th March        9.30/10am - 1.30pm
                         Sunday 20th March        9.30/10am - 1.30pm
                         Sunday 27th March        9.30/10am - 1.30pm

That last one is Census Day!

Are we all going to put "In the Cemetery" for the 'Where were you on the 27th March' question?  ;D ;D ;D

Hi,

I will, if others will!! ;)

It's the truth!!  I spend more time in cemeteries now, than I do at home when I'm not working!

When posting dates I only thought, we'd not get many Sundays in April as:

Sunday 3rd April - Mother's Day
Sunday 24th April - Easter Sunday

And the following Sunday is 1st May - Bank Holiday Weekend (as there is a wedding on the 29th) So a long weekend!!!

Hi All

Weather forecast for tomorrow looks okay - they are saying it is going to be dry so the "meet" is on.  Looking forward to a great day.  See you all there  :D :D

Just seen the article about your group in April edition of Who Do You Think You Are mag.  You're getting famous now ;D as well as giving a boost to Roots.

Keep up the good work, if I still lived in the area I would join you.
