A lady friend of mine bought me a subscription to ancestry.com as a birthday present and I’ve been delving into my past…. However, the past can throw you a wobbly some times…One of my great, great, great grandfathers came from Ireland and for some reason his prison record in the 1800’s came up in Dublin…..quite a bloke Assault, ABH, GBH. He must have had a regular booking…I asked my youngest son with his police experience about the difference GBH and ABH….. and all I got was….” Not much, they’ll both have hurt!”….. oh dear, be careful what you dig for :laugh:

I’ll blame it on the family ginger hair.
Anyone else done this and got a shock.

never bothered myself with a polish connection not far back so i could only go back one side of the family. however her in the kitchen had some female relative sent to australia in the early 19th century for baby farming. its still in the genes as she hates kids with a passion.

Should probably listen to Gavin Williamson's advice

The Loids….can’t forget the electric pomposity of most (not all) Loids, with George’s manic vanity feeding on the fans desire for success, they got a bit carried away to say the least, ……but he didn’t let his lack of knowledge about running a football club get in his way.
Result, disaster as we sailed past them on the inside to eclipse them totally….but, times change, as does football.
