Making it harder is the officer they sent over here was instrumental in updating the military in general back then..so I'm looking for an name that may of not developed until afterwards by rank.It is the name of the family who use to own the land here where our housing development was built. Their name is "Cornett" but the British used it an an military rank..now called an Ensign here...and only the Queen has it over there these days in her guards. The next generation Cornett...was an Major-General by rank in England. Later generations might have "Prince Harry" right now...not sure on that one either. How is Kate feeling these days...I hope she has an decent time for this Christmas with the family issues she's dealing with this year (baby due and first Christmas for their son)..and I bet William is there helping her also.. her family also this year. I've got my major work load done now pretty much...most the food is bought for Christmas dinner also. Still just nit picking and tweeking things need it. I'm about to see if I can get an electric cord on an string of lights painted the same color as my wall so it melts into it better. So I guess I better go for now. Besides it's getting "lanch" time...I just asked my grandaughter if we could take her out to the new restruant opening up here soon in town. Kind of "cap off" what is already planned. |

I'll second that, keep up the good work. Everything looks good on the laptop and iPad, but at the moment I can't access any of the left hand menus on my phone. I can't get to the forums at all. Just though I'd better mention it |

Ruth, you should be able to access the forums on your phone by using the top horizontal navigation Latest > Threads. See pic below. The left menu vanishes on purpose on mobiles, by using media queries, otherwise it takes up most the screen by itself and most mobile users then can't see the main central content area, without resizing etc. We will eventually get better menus deployed for mobile phones but for now the top horizontal navigation should be working. let me know if it's not.

I'll wait until Chris and Sarah finish their working on the web site so much..it must be something else to keep this web site running with today's massive electronics. Starting to pack up right now...going in to get new medications to take with me. Back on my diet...and I bought an pair of pants I thought I'd have to lose weight to get into..nope fit just perfect right now, which makes me feel better about this time of the year. Two more nieighbors put up Christmas lights yesterday. Washed all my bedding last night an crawled into an fresh bed and slept soundly last night...with the cat right near me also..she liked the fresh warm linens also... So off I go for now to get those meds...talk to you all later on. |
