Ok its me again - r u ready for the 2nd installment of me holiday??:o)) Whilst in NY we walked through a small part of Central Park, saw the sign 'Strawberryfiels' - this is where a man sings Beatle songs and plays guitar, people sit on the grass in the summer and sing along with him (l am told - hope l have that right!). Saw the hotel where YoKo lives, had a meal and then walked around part of the Natural History Museum - l think we would still be there now if we'd looked at everything. Whislt we were there my cousin went back to her flat to meet the maintenance man - clever me had broken her tap!!!!! or atleast l thought l had - he sorted it:o)))) When we got back to her flat she wanted to show me a picture - when l looked at it l said out loud 'thats my dad', it had been painted by my grandfather Bernard Meninsky and she had'nt realised who it was - well l'll be!!!! lol On the Friday late afternoon she wanted us to go to a Jewish service, as our backgrounds are Jewish (although l'm a right mixture!!) - well l have never felt so emotional, l sobbed! Everyone was so friendly - as we walked in the muscians singers/speakers etc were in the middle of the room (church) in robes singing and playing guitars. The music was a combination of Argentina and Israel, beautiful!! loads of people old, young etc got up and formed a circle and danced round the room, people kept joining on the end - the atmosphere was electric. My cousin was overwhelmed that l enjoyed it so much. All to soon it was time to pack and leave for Denver to meet my half sister her 3 children, half brother and my EX step mother - thats for another day though - lol Sylvia - hope your keeping busy and you take care, we'll all be thinjking of you. Fred - you mentioned the other that your visiting Anglesey - thats about 6 hrs away. Brenda - do hope your enjoying your holiday. Shame you did'nt get the info you needed at the records dept. Dorothy - hope you are ok. Anyone that l have missed - take care. Kathleen are u about - can't wait to meet you in April;o)))) jude sarf wales:o) xx

Well hello to the new thread ,long may it live.
Old Fred got up with a savage headache this morning so logged on after i had put the kettle on,and had just started to open my emails when the kettle told me it was ready[whistler].
I went out to the kitchen and made my cuppa and took a couple of tablets,but my head by this time was pounding like hell ,and my vision was getting a little blurredso i decided to go for a walk to try to clear out the cobwebs.
I even had a senior moment in forgetting to turn the puter offwhen i left.
Iv'e come back in with a head even worse than when i went out ,to find the wife up for the first time in ages ,and in a bit of a tizz,but have sorted her out [i hope] and hopfully sorted out my emails too.
I'm off back to bed with what looks to be a migraine,which thankfully i havn't had in a long time.
See you all later peeps .Fred.

well it does seem faster .lets hope its kept up.Couldn't get on here till know had fun and games !!!! with the mouse and keyboard,they will have to be changed. See you some time tomorrow. brenda

Hi there girls and boys, So I am the one to be chosen to be first on the new site. I managed to get on quite quickly this evening. I had my help in the house today and the sweet girl has given me a present to take with me in the hospital which I can open after the operation. Annemie came downstairs and gave me a small present too. Time is drawing near, just two more days of waiting. See you tomorrow. Sylvia xxx
