28th September – 5th October 2009

Cya
Tuesday
Had a text at 7.30am to say our dear friend Pat Chambers died in the night (Tuesday Morning) after long illness but was a shock to us, well at least now she no longer suffering, but has left behind lots of people who will have there own memories of her but most of all her Partner Chris and her children and grand children RIP.
Took presents and cards for Mick Emmerson 50th and Hannah Emmerson 14th (she was our bridesmaid) then off into town to look at some old newspapers for my family research.
Came home to find Fido (16mth old dog) had ripped up stuff from the bin still a little sod but we love him.
Edith and Rob came round tonight for a few hours, then off to bed I went still feeling bad but bit better, still in shock over the Death of Pat.
Night
Wednesday
Not much today apart from being woke up with a text from a mate to say she got rid of her Facebook and going down (in other words taking time out has feeling depressed)
Been shopping with Dean and Amanda B, and returned to find Fido had chewed my rug in the hall way, he not chewed for ages he wasn’t a chewing dog when he was little and had him since 8 weeks old, he is at vets tomorrow so will ask vet. found out details of Pats funeral today, that will be a big one has she was well known for her chair on the Pool league.
Now watching Futurama on Sky I know better things to do or watch but on sofa and can’t be arsed to move now.
Bye
Thursday 1st October
Off to take Fido to the vets for his yearly health check and booster. seems nice day here well sin is out for now, how long for ? oh 86 days to Christmas AGAIN!!!,
Seen Pats son David today seems to be baring up, Monday is going to be hard for him and alot of people.
Fido-Will has had his yearly check up all is well with him and his yearly booster, but he put weight on 23.05kg but they said he will be about 25kg for the type of dog is he and he is only 15mths old.
Was watching BBC Northwest Tonight and they got on about a magazine on sexual health for the over 50s and they asked people to email in with there thoughts so I did but didn’t think they would read it out but they did.
This is what I sent into the BBC Tonight
The sexual health magazine is a waste of money and the item after that about the food bank brings it into perspective, when people are struggling to live and then over 50s are getting a magazine on sexual health, they most be doing something right to still be around at 50
Had a chilled evening now off to bed.
Night
Friday
Well it’s friday and not got that friday feeling YET!!!, today should have been a day to have a burden lifted from mine and my partner Dean’s shoulders, but after a phone call not to be another week and half to wait, anyway we still going for a meal to the Toby Carvery with Emma.
Back from meal at Toby had nice evening with my partner Dean, Emma and Lesley not bad meal and pudding for a fiver.
Watched Benidorm and Derren Brown now off to bed.

Got our suits out for Pat’s Chambers Funeral Tomorrow morning, last time I wore mine was to a funeral a few years ago, been told it’s going to be loads of people there, well she was Chair-person of the Morecambe Pool for quite a few years, and she was known in and around Morecambe, Lancaster and Blackburn.
We are going with a dear friend Maggie May (Margaret Hughes) some of my family will be there but we are not fussed about that, I will be polite as that is how I have been brought up.
Week Ended goto next week here
GoneTooSoon Too Morbid, Painful Or A Comfort To You
GoneTooSoon
This is a memorial site where people can make there own memorial / tribute site and leave messages, light Candles, leave gifts.
I personally have one for my Mother who died in 2000 and I find it a great comfort and I have wrote about my Hospital visits in the past, my civil partnership to Dean, basically telling me mum what I have been upto has if she was still here.
However some people have said it’s Morbid and not for them, saying that this is not right etc.others find it too hard to do it and get upset if someone who has done one for them, some just say not due to there religious beliefs.
So are they right in what they say about it being Morbid. have you got a site for a loved one or a pet too.
The owner Barry George set the site up after he had a loved one who passed away and wanted his own way of channeling his own grief.
Also taken from the GoneTooSoon Site
As you are probably already aware, GoneTooSoon is a not-for-profit organisation and I strongly believe it should remain a free site so that anyone can create a memorial, whatever their financial circumstances.
To ensure the site can continue to be free to use, I have teamed up with GettingPersonal.co.uk and Interflora. Both these companies have agreed to donate a small percentage of their sales, whenever a GoneTooSoon user makes a purchase with them.
So when you buy gifts or order flowers, you will be helping GoneTooSoon. All you’ll need to do is click on the links above.
Rest assured that these items won’t cost you any more by ordering this way.
Thank you so much for your continued support.
Well I think it’s been good for me and is better than using Facebook or other site like that to have site of memorials on.
Whats your thoughts .

Family Tree
Well today I have added all the basic information I had already, and what I was given by my Cousin on My dads side thank you to Mrs Palmer-pyrah, so now I need to start the task of going back as far as possible, looking forward to it but you always un-earth dark secrets. I have to say the Ancestry.co.uk site is good, find it better than genes reunited. http://www.ancestry.co.uk/

A Tribute to My Dear Mum
Family Research
I am going to start researching my dads side of the family, need to know where I originate from I know some are from Lancaster and Scotland (Glasgow I think) but where do I start, which is the best site, and why do they charge you loads to search for your family.
So if you know of any good and cheap sites let me know, or even know anything about the CLINTONS from Lancaster and Scotland please message me.
Thanks
