I'm in Australia, and it's 3.05am.

There has to be someone, somewhere in the world, who is awake!

I tried counting sheep, but could only find Errol.

I might as well stay up........ Himself will be out of bed at 6.30.

Errol's usually pretty good at sending people to sleep :-D :-D :-D

Sorry Mr Sheep.......... :-(

That was a bit rough on you this early in your day.

I looked for a sheep prod, but could only find a cattle prod.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZap!

:-D

5.57am ~ haven't been to bed yet, but Himself is awake, all bright-eyed & bushy-tailed

It will be sheep that will keeping me awake tonight :-|

Today the farmer separated the lambs from their mothers. The noise of the ewes protesting and bleating on the mountain is incredible, and will continue throughout the night.
As it is so warm I will have to have the bedroom windows open, so sleep will be hard come by.

eRRolSheep - Can't you do anything about your brethren? :-D

Usually fast asleep by now, but have stayed up late to post my thanks to family and friends for their birthday wishes to me on Facebook. :-)

Happy Birthday Joeva x :-)

Thank you Sylvia :-) I had a good day :-) Lovely cards from family and friends a bouquet of flowers, chocolates, a new Freeview box and much more to come..... which includes a makeover for my garden including a new shed; I am truly blessed. :-)

It's got really windy here.... I hope we're not in for a storm tonight.

it's now 1.42pm....... We're going out tonight, I hope I don't do a faceplant in my beer

:-(

Thank you K

This sounds like him His parents are Alfred Waldron and Hannah White Rumney Hannahs mother is a Thompson

Did you mean they were living in Rivervale in 1972 not 1872 If the latter it doesnt make sense

1911 census
Alfred Waldron Howdon
Hannah wife 1880 North Shields
Alfred son 1900 North Shields
Norman son 1902 Howdon
Bertram 1909 Howdon

Wonder if only he went to Australia I found a couple of deaths for a Norman around the same age but without getting certs not sure if its him

Not direct relatives and too expensive to get every cert although I have many for my direct family

Sorry - yes 1972 - I am so used typing 1800's!! I can't see an obvious departure for Norman to Aus or death in Aus. Awake again -more thunder

Did find this departure with Betram, Mary, Stanley and two other names I can't read - Transcribed as Duncan M and Dennis
Name: Bertram T E Waldon
Departure Place: Glasgow, Scotland
Arrival Date: Jul 1952
Arrival Place: Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia
Vessel: Cameronia

Thanks once again K
