Re: Today I shall be Mainly...

Comrade, discussion was interesting. Amazing what nearly 40 years in the job brings you. It seems that no-one has identified for them the number of "rushed" adoptions that have gone bad with adopters not having time and support in preparing to take on children and reacting in tragic ways i...

Re: GOOD TV

There was an article about TT in one of the on line papers a couple of weeks ago. Mick Aston will not be doing any more series as he objects to them loosing archaeologists in favour of presenters. Stewart Ainsworth and Helen Geake are to appear less often which is a real pity as Stewart is often the...

Re: BEWARE! THE BANKS ARE OUT TO GET YOU!

Nat West in Burnley got me this am. Intent on paying in some money for Charlotte and Dan I was faced with the queue lines that funnel you to a cashier but people were queuing at both ends.

Re: Looking for general advice

Eileen,

"Manor of Iglitenhill (where ever that is)" ...... could this be Ightenhill which is a very old parish on the outskirts of Burnley.

Re: Creative writing

Eileen, I'm directly descended on my mothers side to the Langstroths of Denmark who's ancestors settled in Upper Wharfedale in the 10th century. They initially came as "viking" which is a verb "to raid" in old Norse. The vast majority of Northmen were farmers who would in bad tim...

Re: We all Love A Moan, What Annoyed You Today...

My moan is all the "supportive" well to do members who are making such a fuss about paying over a few pounds because they claim the site has changed. It has changed, get over it and either cough up some cash or put up with the adverts. Nolic
