Fans

Just read a post you made of the 1911 census - I assume you got this from FMP

How do you get them to look like that - when I C&P - the text is big and all little "click boxes " thingy every
where

Click over to oldest first Maureen.

You been messing about with things again?

jax Report 28 Sep 2010 15:33

If you click the last reply thingy above the date and time does that not change it back?

TURN YOUR TEXT SIZE DOWN RENES.

Then as Ja..x says you have to delete all the c**p you dont want after pasting .
That may help?

Oh good!! Thanks,ja..x. Have no idea how that happened. And had no idea how to fix it. All better now...
Yes,Fans,apparently I was messing about as you so tactfully put it.

Do we have another pro?

1242452

an advanced search for the username finds 4 pages of posts, with a whole lot of lookup requests by somebody who obviously subscribes for nothing themself ...

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 28 Sep 2010 17:31

Amateur pro maybe?

But I would not like to call it.

jax Report 28 Sep 2010 17:35

Similar to the one that has asked for well over 100 1911 census look ups. I find that well over the top for one tree.

Or maybe my family is very small?

Well, I've enquired. ;)

First post I can find is December last year and then 18 pages? Or have I got it wrong?


I'm an amateur amateur!!


I sent OH up to the loft before because I knew we had an old brass warming pan up there (inherited). I also knew there was an inscription on it which I wanted to take a look at. After wiping a considerable amount of yuk from the edge, I managed to transcribe.....

Given to F.W. Cousens, April 1900 by his father George Cousens, to whose great grandfather it originally belonged.

I thought I would see if there was anyone on this site with that name.....there are.....too many!

It's gone back into the loft.


Right the oven is on........fish it is tonight......I don't like fish but it's good for us.......sigh

It's rather interesting to note that the username Te le gram Sam has disappeared from this site -- where a search once showed 100 threads by that user, it now shows none.


edit, oops, wrong on that, the search for "thanks" and that username still produces 3 pages of results.

The name had changed slightly there used to be a comma after one name (the first word)

1242462 had a count up the other day
