a broken lock and friends for lunch

Anthony went out to the car to get the shopping for me the other day and the key in the screen door snapped off.  i was not happy Jan.  however, after talking to Graham i felt much better.  he said he thought that he could either get the broken key out of the lock or take out the lock and take it to the hardware store and get a new one.  the girls came over today and Graham was able to remove the lock and knock the broken key out, replace the lock and we are good to go.  we had a nice lunch and afterwards the girls and i went over to the cemetery to photograph a headstone, belonging to our relative who was the first minister for education here in south australia, for my cousin.  i went down to the genealogical society again on tuesday and found a few more entries about my mother's family.  it's a slow process but interesting and surprisingly quite tiring.  i came home the other day and felt like i'd been at work all day.  perhaps i'm getting old  :)  oh and good news, i finally got my printer to work :)

  1. Is Graham any good with gutters? If so, can you send him over? ;-)

    1. hi Matthew, he's probably great with gutters as he's very handy, i'll tell him to come over and see you. :)

  2. What a pain that was then. Glad it's fixed. Family tree research does make me tired, it's all that thinking :)

    1. yes but a very happy ending and i'm much relieved and grateful to him. i'm glad i'm not the only one who gets tired whilst family tree researching. i wonder if i'll get used to it. :) hope you are well and not too cold over there

  3. I've given up on family history after I lost loads of files when my external disc drive died.
