I'm doing the same as June, hubby has just taught me how to use the scanner so I've been scanning in all the old photos my dad lent me ... but very few have got names on the back, grrrrr! Nice lazy day but got good excuse because I'm recovering from flu - feeling well enough to fiddle on pc but not to do anything too strenuous lol. Mandy :)

Just collapsed in front of the 'puter after a morning making ten pounda of tomato chutney, which is now in the cupboard in jars and apple sauce for the freezer. Also done 3 lots of washing between us and visited B&Q for a few bits. So I don't feel guilty. Although i should be writing up minutes from a meeting and making Christmas cards and tidying the bathroom medicine cabinet (because it all fell out this morning when i went to get something!!).

I have done the crosswords and I have been searching the 1841 census whilst listening to a selection of upbeat music I'm listening to Native New Yorker at the moment and I am twirling about on my chair I call it exercise Bren

Well I'm sitting here with my coffee and All Butter Scottish Shortbreads and fancied a quick browse on the boards - and looks like everyone else is busy. I feel very guilty that I'm not sitting in a Records Office somewhere looking up all the things I moan I haven't found yet. Instead I'm having a lazy Saturday afternoon - sitting at the PC - dabbling! What plans have you got for today? Sarah
