@Nisus I have now made it that people with 1000 posts or more can edit posts as it tends to be newer members that cause the issues
Unfortunately a minority do spoil it for the majority but i suppose thats life
All the best

Agree1000 quotes is rather extreme: it may take some members several years to reach that goal. 250-500 post seems more reasonable![]()
Samsung galaxy s2's running chrome have a nasty habit of jumbling up letters when you aint looking so it looks like i will be proofreading or correcting mistakes in another post lol. See your point though Danny, the ones that cant handle the banter on here must be a blubbering wreck on sites lol

Sorry , been busy on the family research, found my grt grt grt grt grt grandfather had been threatened by the Rockites in Ireland in 1831 , I had never heard of them , but here it was James fitzpatrick 1831 ,house broken into and threats made asking him to leave his lands(rented ) from major cas sans , French Huguenot aligned to the British , the French Huguenots were given land in Ireland by the British in returns for helping in the wars, cas sans great great grandson became an actor and played the part of boy alongside johnnie weizmuller in Tarzan, I became a plasterer ha ha. I am on a few forums but have spent a decent percentage on plasterers forum, ancestory.com etc.everyone takes a leaf out of johnboys book then the 1000 post count wont take long!! bet hes fingers are killing
My first cousins grandfather was in Burmah too, came from Ireland aged seventeen, conscripted and got three years in Burmah, he apparently never spoke of it either, lovely man, happy with a pint and game of 25, you would never have known he ever had any bad experiences, god bless them all.im not bothered about my family tree but id like to know more about my dads dad, he was a pow in Burma for 4 years, I dont know what regiment he was in but i do now he refused his war medals when he got home and never spoke to anyone about the deaths and what the japs did apart from my mother
He was a traveller?sorry ye my granddad worked on bridges too not sure which, if I remember right he use to blow things up and make metal pots and pans for everyone
