Find Ancestors

Grief, you can't 'alf waffle Fans. Been on the voddie or somefink???


Hello Patricia, of course you may join us but beware....we are all slightly mad/eccentric/crazy/dolally etc. with some exceptions of course.


I don't know whether I should admit this or not.....the scenario so touchingly told by our Janey......could have been me. I was exactlly the same when I joined here. I doodled around with my tree and Hot Matches and search trees but didn't know a Community board from an elephant's left ear.

Mind you - JC - being slightly (much) brighter than me, caught on far quicker and soon weighed into the fray. I can remember her posting in a previous incarnation and thought how clever this person was - must have been around for donkey's years - hahahaha. Then I used to see messages about her being on holiday and I used to think "lucky girl"....ha.

I hovered around, dipped my toe into the water and got told off for doing summat wrong.........listen....I was confused, I was new.....I was an ignoramus.....gimme a break.


Ja...x - I had never even heard of freebmd/igi etc. until I was well into posting on here.


Will have to get a meal soon.....not in the mood.

Renes took her in spain bit off now I dont know who she is Lol

I was the same with Freebmd I had been helping for quite a while on here before I discovered it, I thought I have anscestry dont need that...darn site easier sometimes
ja...x

So she has ja...x - I wonder why she has done that?

She looks 'quite naked' now !!

Dea x

OOOerr !! - good job it's still warm over there!! (tee hee!)

Dea x

Well, I'm blowed! After what we've been talking about, I just, this minute, opened this pm.

Cynthia,

Your message was a great help to a beginner of the message board. I have not yet mastered the 'thread' way of doing things but with practice I will.



Isn't that nice?

Orrrr !

Makes it all seem worthwhile dunnit Cynths??

Jax

Dropped the in Spain for two reasons - had loads of pm s asking where in Spain I was - not that I minded but a lot of messages in in box

Also with all this googling stuff - I found if you had a unique name - like ireneinspain Sylviaincanada etc - it comes up straight away


But if you have a common name like Irene dea Cynthia etc - they are lost in the search

Fanny is the exception - there are millions of fbg as there are janeycanucks - real characters or persons


So in end just kept with Irene - although there are several on here



Renes

Sooo why not go as "JustIrene"then Renes?.

Or similar of course....

But I am the ONLY Fanny or FBG on HERE....Nodubby gonna mix ME up wid summbudy else ...

OOOhh Renes - I am hurt !!

'Dea' a 'common' name ??? - Surely not ?? - - I made it up my very own self !!!

Just joking !!! - You call yourself whatever you want - I will still talk to you

Dea Xxx

Come on then PatriciaW

You have been welcomed - tell us all about yourself ??

(Nothing too revealing, of course).

Fans

I got a bit spooked when I had posted on a privacy thread ( or maybe the census thread) when some pm d about 5 IreneinSpain - TTF s and responses I had made - the previous day

And I Googled - IreneinSpain unique - and then Irene - thousands came up with all sorts of Irene s (very very common Dea ) tried Renes - unique - and JustIrene - unique

Must admit - I would have liked FannybyGaslight - but a farmers daughter nicked it - why she could not have used muddywellies or boyo - or upthevalleys - I dont know


Renes ------only used here on my "special thread"

Gooooood evening!

How are we all??



T xx

Dea - On google - Dea usually means 'Drug enforcement Agency (or Administration') but NOT a person called Dea, as I am ??

Dea x

Hi Trace !!!

Popped in for a little while before you meet the pope???

Dea Xxx

Hi Trace

How was Rolf did he sing two little boys lol

ja...x

Has she been somewhere with Rolf Harris - Is he still alive ??? (Sorry Rolf, if you are reading)!!

My little grand-daughter's 'school concert' included a song by him - 'Jake the Peg' !! - They did an excellent interpretation of this 'with an extra leg' - It was SSSooo funny !!!

Dea x

Dea

Ask Tracey who she was photographed with --

perhaps I should had called myself FBI -

Renes

Yeah!!

FBI is just like DEA

I will find you, whoever you are ...............Lots of huggs (I don't know why but you just seem to deserve them !!!)

jax - I want a hint about the heir hunter, I've forgotten what to look for.


Just got back from the bank, a place I try to go only twice a year or so. Anybody ever read Stephen Leacock? The Canadian counterpart of Mark Twain, but also a social reform campaigner.

"My Financial Career"

"When I go into a bank I get rattled. The clerks rattle me;
the wickets rattle me; the sight of the money rattles me;
everything rattles me.

The moment I cross the threshold of a bank and attempt to
transact business there, I become an irresponsible idiot."

And there follows the tale -- it's a short and amusing one. ;)

As I keep saying ,if I was not FannyByGaslight I would have to be...Jezebel..

But 2 of your suggestions are pretty tempting.Just not UpTheValleys...I am in WEST WALES ...Irene BACH,not the South.

UpAMountain may have done though as I spent a lot of my childhood among the Preseli Mountains.

Did consider CardiGirl ,but then I moved over the border to Carmarthenshire and CarmsGirl just doesnt have the same ring to it.

Stick to 'Fans' Fans - It sounds just right for you !!!
