Working on this thread has taken a back seat due to new job (going well). Will take it up at the end of April after (hopefully) a successful British Retail Therapy sorry Consortium audit.

Ah, my hours have slipped (deliberately) and more normal hours are maintained in the world of Julie. Up at 06.00 is good enough for me these days. Clear sky down here now the weekend is over and done with.

On ebay at the moment http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Annals-and-St ... 2c639bd2bc
if anyone is interested

Thank you all. The place seems friendly, if somewhat manic.

Mostly today I shall be starting a new job. Still in Quality and Technical; just in a different category. Fingers crossed please.

Lasagne home made tonight.

I think I have seen one of these, is it a stapler?

That is both my childhood dreams now, Davy Jones and Jack Wild. It takes a woman of a certain age I suppose....

...Going to two interviews. Fresh outfit and tidy hair and my own sweet self. Fingers crossed everyone please. (Excepting those with arthritis or rheumatism of course).

Pedants are us noted that "worldwide" is spelled "worlwide" on the front page.

Norfolk: Flint and chalk, flint and chalk, flint and chalk.

When you look at the interior, you would be forgiven for thinking that it was constructed of chalk bricks, but this is the way chalk looks in the bottom of a flint mine.

Never too late Stanley, I am surprised at you! Depends on the full blown study however. Geology of popular dog walks in the Barlick area sound just up your street / footpath / route.

Ooerrr (if that is how it is spelled) look what I found!

Check out 6 Jan 1591! I have a black sheep!!

These TLAs crop up all over the place don't they! TLA is a three letter abbreviation standing for three letter abbreviation. Stanley, explain for newbies LTP - I know (but I'm not sure where to find it now),

Thank you, I trawled through the census records for Roughlee yesterday and found both those that you have mentioned. Backwards now to John and Margaret to find certainly his and hopefully her parents. John gives his dob as circa 1804 and at Barrowford. There is a Barnard Sutcliffe who marries in 180...

After a particularly trying tin of corned beef defeated Steve this morning; we will be Corned Beef Hash tonight. Haven't had that in 30 years!

No harm at all in planning ahead. It has been a dry winter, rain (when it happened) could only be called drizzle. The snow we had, whilst useful, only amounts to a tiny proportion of the good that several downpours will do. Of course in Norfolk, any rainfall that we do get will be absorbed into the ...

Thistle do? Pun time for Julie.

If it rains here there will be trouble, I have just put the washing out. Stratocumulus clouds around, low, lumpy layer of clouds Stratocumulus clouds generally appear as a low, lumpy layer of clouds that is sometimes accompanied by weak intensity precipitation. Stratocumulus vary in color from dark ...

Cracking on now with your help, thank you. Will post what I get here.

Sometimes we forget the obvious! Thank you for your help. Right onward with the Sutcliffes. There do seem to be a lot of Barnard Sutcliffes about, are they all related. MEL! Where are you??

That was extraordinarily quick, even for this site. So Eileen, what is your secret? Are you also researching these?

Oh I wish I hadn't looked at this part of the family tree again, I should have just left well alone. I have a Barnard (or Bernard) Sutcliffe (1827 to 1912) who marries a Harriet Sutcliffe (1829/30 to 1884). Yesterday I found Harriet in both the 1851 and 1841 census living with her grandparents John ...

A wonderful pair of Kites yesterday, gliding on the wind currents. Magnificent isn't good enough a word for the colour when they turned so that the sunlight reflected on their backs.
