Oh dear!! Bad day at the office and you lot are all asleep and can't listen to my whining. Yes I was very creative, unfortunately, should have followed the correct procedure. Messed up my taxation things, which I believe is called VAT in your land.

Oh well it's all fixed now after some timely intervention by the gurus in the big office. I had to promise I would do it their way next time.

Aunty throws herself into the padded cell, sticks her thumb in her mouth and sulks.

Hi Maz, There is plenty of room in here. Had to clear away the spider webs and chase out a few mice who seemed to think the red and white cushions on the throne were a good place to rest.

I've deaded the thread. No one about. They are all out basking in the warm sunshine.

It has just started to rain here. The forecast is for gale force winds with rain overnight easing to showers tomorrow.

Sunshine? What sunshine? It's gone into hiding and the rain has come to play.

Hope today will be a better one for you, Aunty. Perhaps the IT gurus can incorperate your good creative accounting in their next rebuild.....unless it is toooo creative from the taxation point of view lol.

OH has just experienced Murphy's Law in respect to invigilation - what can go wrong, will go wrong!!!! Now he can appreciate why I've come home on, occassions, fuming.

Hi LG. My OH can emphasize with you. He and his mate spent yesterday painting daughter's house. She started renovating which was to be a long term project. Then decided to sell so now everything needs to be done at once.

I get a turn at splashing a paint brush around on Monday which is a public holiday.

When you have both finished, you can come over here and make a start on the list of jobs as long as your collective arms lol.

Fell asleep in the armchair, so a quick look round and hopefully off to bed.

RMS I think I found Clifford living somewhere. Hang on and I'll go look.

OK There are three entries I will look at them one at a time

Name: Clifford Brotherton
Gender: Male
Electoral Year: 1905
State: Queensland
District: Wide Bay
Subdistrict: Dallarnil

This entry shows he was living at Stanton Harcourt and he was a miner. He was living alone, well he did not have a missus with him.


Next one is 1908

Name: Clifford Brotherton
Gender: Male
Electoral Year: 1908
State: Queensland
District: Herbert
Subdistrict: Cairns

He has moved to Cairns and is living at Sawmill Pocket, Nelson. His occupation is shown as labourer.

Nope I have deleted the third one. It is a mistranscription the name is Clifford Augustus Broughton. The Brotherton is Hilda May a nurse living at 41 Hammond Avenue Normanhurst, New South Wales.

Oooh look I have made the Nutters thread look like a family history thread. RMS me thinks we had better go hide in Nut Lodge somewhere.
