More on Granny's Tales at Last

For those of you who thought I'd forgotten all about this, I can assure you that it has been on the 'to do' list since I last uploaded anything. I have spent more time making some of the items accessible as pages rather than pdfs, which I know some readers prefer. This means there's been less time to create anything new. One thing that I don't think will ever be web pages, is Ivy's Story, which is my maternal grandmother's biography. This is now almost done and I have just added the section that relates to the Second World War. At 14,000 words and eighty five pages (so far) I'm afraid that one is a pdf or nothing. One more section, covering 1945 until her death in 1963, is still to come.

I have also added memories of the places I lived when I was at college in Reading.

At Last, Some New Additions

My plan to something each month has slipped somewhat. The trouble is, I have used up most of the ready-written 'low hanging fruit' and now it takes longer to create material to upload. This month I have managed to present you with some memories of visiting and living in Sandown and Lake, on the Isle of Wight and I've also uploaded a short video about my Smith ancestors, which was aimed at my young grandchildren.

New School Memories on Granny's Tales

I've managed to add my memories of my junior school in the last month, as well as writing about the family's collection of crested china. I have also changed the access to some more treasures, so you can either click on the titles to be taken to a webpage, or click on the images to access a pdf. I have uploaded most of the low-hanging, ready-written memories now, so it is starting to take me longer to create new content. Patience please!
