    No walks for me... can't think of anything worse than wandering round in the cold, alone, when I've food indoors. Stayed under a blanket and fiddled with the Internet.... it doesn't feel very productive... and I think I obliterated one module, which will take me 3-4 hours of work to fathom out and reinstate. Or, I could not bother fathoming it out and just recreate it in 2 minutes flat... might do that come to think of it.

    Are you missing the more exciting sea shore of N Cornwall, PN. You used to love walking/photographing/exploring.

    Did you get caught driving a furren car after the "entry amnesty" time had passed? Although I can't believe you'd have taken your car there.

    Evening all, just playing catch up. House sounds wonderful Nikkster, best of luck for Tuesday.

    A question for the latin speakers if I may. I can't get a direct answer to this from the web as I think I'm missing the context. I have a family tree that I'm looking into. There is a woman who married her second husband, the tree states: Barbara uxor Edwarde, which I understand is Barbara, wife of Edwarde. But then it goes on to say mil. relicta, which I think is widow in this case. Then just the word Caue. I know that means beware, but I don't know what it would mean in this context. Any ideas?

    We need details.:)

    Why a fine, why a trailer and why reregistering? How much is that in real money?

    oooh.... sounds like the most exciting thing here since N's house news.... wanna know... wanna know.

    Come on - out with the toffs. What's it mean??
    :)

    "mil. relicta, which I think is widow in this case" - relicta means leaving... so could it mean "bunked off with her lover, beware/might not really be divorced"

    Has it anything to do with a caveat on the will, to do with multiple claims of inheritance or something?

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I haven't a clue Viva, will ask dh.

    Nope, he says doesn't have a clue, but he has wandered off to the bathroom muttering about it...if he comes up with anything I will certainly tell you.



    It sounds deliciously entriguing though, doesn't it!
