Yes, I was surprised. :-)

It's the time of year to roll out the Merry Christmas folk, quite a number, too. ;-)

when I first moved into my present address a Mrs Christmas further up the road had a daughter Mary!!

I have a friend who was born on Christmas Eve, I have known her for over 40 yrs. Her names are Christine Eve. It's only recently that I asked her if she was Christine because if her birthdate (doh!) and she told me her father wanted to call her Christmas Eve, (another doh! moment when I thought of her middle name lol) but a compromise was reached with Christine. She has a younger sister who also has a birthday around this time, she's called Carol!

I was born on Shrove Tuesday, and was Christened Pancake!
(that's not true by the way)

I still have a giggle at the name of a man on my tree called Brighton Gay, and the lady on the census as - Winifred A Hoare! :-D :-D :-D

I found Fanny Damp and Big Dick!!!

Ooo-err Ann.
Hope they were nowhere near each other!! :-S

:-D :-D :-D :-D
