Re: Looking for general advice

Found Hollin Top and there is also a Hollin Farm---- put Roughlee into multimap and click on the ordnance survey, they both come up.
Coincidentally we looked at Hollin Top many years ago, we were told it was on an old pack horse route and used as a stop off place.

Re: WILD ? .."I was LIVID" !..(Wildlife Corner)

We had both woodpeckers in the walnut tree this morning. We have had the female all winter but haven't seen the male since last autumn. Also, instead of just getting the standard bird mix we also got a bag of nuts and one of sunflower seeds----we now have all the goldfinches back and the longtailed ...

Re: PET'S CORNER

My tip of hot water with dettol added, wringing out a chammy leather in it, and scrubbing over the dog, is by far the best way of cleaning and drying a mucky dog. I have done it thousands of times on mucky, large german shepherds---and it works.

It was a while ago, and I probably did, but I still think it was wrong for him to add it to his tree and then pass it on as all his own work. Bearing in mind some of these people were not related to him at all.
Rant over.

Belle,
I think it does. I only use the one from familysearch and I have transferred bits / whole of that with no probs. Melteaser has talked me through a lot of it so it might be worth sending her a pm. I am sure she would know.

Re: HOUSEHOLD TIPS NOT FOUND IN WOMAN'S WEEKLY

I use a pan scourer on the glass in our multifuel burner. If we use it as advised, and leave the side vents open to keep an air flow across the glass, the fire practically blows up the chimney, we have to shut it down. I don't over fill it either, it just has a very good draw most of the time. And, ...
