we were walking home from evening at my brothers girlfriends with our son, and son said something about a girl he knows at school and hubby said whats her name , bendy wendy? it was something hed never normally say , like rhyming name, i just looked at him speechless, he looked at me and laughed saying 'wot' i was suspicious as to if hes been reading the threads, lol he also asked when he was fixing pooter the other weekend if i ever start any threads. the mistery continues.

my dad has started posting on yer so i now have to be careful wot i say , lol. im sure my hubby checks out wot i talk about during the week when im in work as i found last week hes registered his name twice , and he slipped up recently by saying the name bendy wendy in a conversation , just out of the blue, i looked at him puzzled and he said , 'Wot' as if id said something wrong.

Click on Account derails on the left of the screen, then put your password in and on the next screen where it says surname, put where you are from or whatever you want to put in. June

My daughter, Gaynor Ann (AKA Gee_Baby) is a member too, at first I was a bit self conscious but now never think about it. June xx

Rosemary.... change your name so she doesn't recognise you when you post.... I did that with my very first posting as "The 2nd Wife" as i wasn't sure any of my step-family were members!! :O) jack.... good to see you joining in!! Send Mum my hugs and tell her me is getting muscles where I shouldn't because of her!! :O)

My brother and his girlfriend both read the threads and my mum is on here pretty often when she's feeling well enough (Gaynor from Stoke Poges). I joined so I could say thankyou to all her lovely friends on genes, I have no interest in family trees but I read the boards most days while sat at my desk. I love reading the threads and I think the people on here are great. Jack

mY SISTER came to stay last weekend and I showed her the site and we did a bit of posting.Then I heard myself saying(after one or two Bombay Sapphires)Why don't you join the FR AND GR site. Idiot me.Now I live in fear that she will as I can see that I shall be very wary of what I post if I know she is likely to answer any of my threads. Stupid Rose
