Course you can boast RMS! It's good to see you have time to post again. Hope the parents are both progressing nicely. :)

Maz, mess around with maps google, and ask for directions from, say, one of the other places Rowley lived. That would gives the miles and help with the perspective. Aunty must have fallen down a rabbit hole in the Blonde one's over grown garden, or sown her fingers on to the curtains she was supposed to be making!

If you know the convent's name, why not track it down and contact them? They may still have a record. Not sure if you mean she was a nun or a patient, but they should know.

Internet is still on a go slow - sigh :(

Sorry about the vet bill. Any chance you can take out an insurance for them?

If you haven't already done so, but the Sister's birth name as well as religious name on the Ask the Nutter's thread. Yob, last know residential area and when she was last known to be alive, and someone can have a look. You could always add her to 'your' tree on Ancestry (not connected to anyone else) and see if that will throw up a death record, or allow you to search.

I dont have this puss insured as he is never poorly he is a lot happier now bless him .The vet said he's gorgeous being and old boy he will have to heal slowly .as they dont like doing risky treatments on the older boys .

Hope the bill wasn't too bad Maz, but you know he's worth it. I never had any of my cats insured but they weren't often bad - so it was probably cheaper the way we did it.

I can't brag about my paperwork being tidy, I've got it all over the dining table and the table is barley visible..........just a well we don't eat in here.

Hope you're having a relaxing time LG.

How are your parents RMS?

A Question:
If you saw a car spinning out of control coming towards you, would you :

a) scream
b) reach of your seat belt buckle and try and get out
c) hope your seat belt holds

Remember you just have seconds to react!

My parents are coming along nicely thanks :-)))))))))). My Dad is just waiting for his bones to heal and my Mum is getting her confidence in walking back (not sure how she lost it, but whatever).

+++DetEcTive+++ Report 2 Aug 2010 18:29

Hmm. Can we have more than one answer? Probably hope the seat belt holds and try to steer put of the way. (whilst screaming) Is this something you've discussed with your father? There is probably nothing he could have done to make the impact less. Hope he isn't beating himself up about it.

OH tried to tidy this desk up today. Grr off!! lol. At least the papers are now in a neat(ish) pile.

Pauline $(*-*)$ Report 2 Aug 2010 18:38


Think I'd probably scream and turn the steering wheel as hard as possible, or maybe freeze with shock!!
