Worked out my problem getting pics off of the iPad. The cord. Needed a new one lucky I have a spare.

Wrote my piece for Write Your Family Saga. Expanded on the poaching theme. The others turned out too long and hard to get word count down. I still went over the 250 word quota though.

My Aunty gave me this teapot that belonged to my Great Grandma Euphemia. A souvenir from the coronation in June 1902 of King Edward VII and his wife Queen Alexandra. My grandmother Jessie was born that year so it is very special just for that reason.  Coincidentally my nanna Aileen also was born that year but a couple of months after.

The spout is a little broken but still a lovely bit of china.


Another of my treasures.

 Its a Sands game. Housie Lotto now called Bingo. Belonged to Nanna.

 The little marker pieces are in an old tobacco tin. The original box is a bit dilapidated and you can see where I used masking tape to hold it together.

This is Mater the cat. has a habit of getting in the way. Walks across the keyboard when I am trying to type, lies on the iPad, sits in front of the computer screen and takes over my chair if I get up to do something else. She is watching me. 

Have been procrastinating today and other days got a lot of stuff to scan onto the computer but have not been in the mood. Everything is in piles waiting for me to get my act together. There are letters, photos and other papers. Associated with about four different families much not in any order.
