Morning, just a quick look in to see how you all are. Going to town with youngest stepson this morning to return a faulty laptop. Wish me luck

Good luck with that LG, you shouldn't have any bother though - as long as he hasn't had it too long.

It's a lovely day so I'll be going out when I get the washing on the line.

Have a good day everybody.


Edit: Just seen that Maz got a designer handbag for 6 quid, well done Maz.

Hi There, spent quite a time on and off today searching my Hills. Found this really weird site about the 1901 census.

Don't quite understand it but it seems to be about Institutions and the census. Wasted heaps of time going through it. And then ended up in workhouses and the WW1 records. And he ain't in the WW1 records.

Heard from OH. Everything is fine turns out the rellies are normal people like us. Ahhhh, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I am having an early night tonight. Keep falling asleep in front of the computer. Going into the state library tomorrow to check out electoral rolls. Spot will have to stay home and play with his toys.

Catch you later.

Aunty Sherlock..I have the 1911 Census...it might be a help to you..just ask.

Derek

Laptop is not mine it is stepson's. It turns out that his ex girlfriend had nobbled it and he has to buy a new vista disc to fix it Grrrrr, I could choke her for the bother and upset she has caused him.

Rant well and truly over.

Don't mention ADMIN !!!!!!!!. I have just sent a rather stiff email to a guiding site that I have to access but keeps shutting me out. Grrrrrrrrrr, same problem as the other week when I moaned about it on here. How am I expected to do admin if I can't access forms and information !!!!!!!!!!!!

2nd Rant of the day !!!!!

Been another lovely day here. Spent most of it in the garden, cutting the grass, edging, weeding. I am now absolutely worn out and had a hot soak. Now going to have tea and put my feet up!!

A lovely weather forecast for the next week, so something to look forward to, although will be back at work on Monday, boo hoo!!

lol i cant clear my desk its never ever clean

YG my garden is here as you love gardening that much lol my ground is still muddy but is improving

I've got one bit left to weed tomorrow, but I just couldn't do anymore today!! I feel as though I've done ten rounds with Mike Tyson!!

Hope you still have your ears YG.

Back up a bit. Derek! I have a Hill, Frederick William thread on the TTF board. I have looked at every birth for Frederick Hill and every marriage for Ernest Hill between 1880 and 1895. I am really beginning to think he invented his father's name. Everything is around the London area except for the Orphan's school entry which says he was born in Yorkshire. I have looked at the 1911 census and there are possibilities but nothing I can pin point in the absence of his parents names.

Gotta go walk Spot. Be back soon.
