Desperately seeking Samuel Dobson born about 1807 in North Yorkshire

If you have Dobson connections please click on the photo to link you to the St Hilda, Ellerburn website where some of the 'Dobsons' have posted photos.

You will see that the memorial was recently cleaned up by some of the 'Dobson clan'.

Do check out my other blog about my ancestors if you are researching the Dobson, Crooks, Allsop(p), Richmond families.

September 2011 Scavenger List

Oh dear, oh dear, struggled again this month for my photos!!!!  Sorry if you again find them boring!

 

Back to School – a choice of two here – one the sign by the school where I work which I have to pass every day now I’m back at work in school or my son’s backpack and pencil case – but he’s in college not school so a slight cheat!

The football/soccer season – we aren’t really into football but we have this football from a local team which I won in the school raffle one year – it’s signed by the players and sits on top of my son’s bookcase in his bedroom.

What’s in your bag?  What isn’t in my bag would be a better question!  Like all ladies I carry around with my everything but the kitchen sink then I wonder why my bag weighs a ton!

First I did a photo with everything in my bag but wasn’t sure that was good enough.  As you can see I have a bag in my bag!!!!!  Big bags are very good for stuffing everything into but then you can’t find anything so I have my smaller bag inside!

Then I did a photo of things I took out of my smaller bag and now I’m wondering how on earth I get all that stuff in there – no wonder I struggle to fasten it.  Compulsory Cliff diary and Cliff purse which I keep my keys in to make them easier to find rather than them drop to the bottom of my bag!  Yes there is a pair of latex gloves on there too – when I did my first aid course last year the guy suggested you carry a pair with you just in case you come across an accident and need them so I put them into a little capsule that came with a hair colourant I’d taken the gloves out of to do my hair.September 2011 032 September 2011 066

Relaxation was a simple one to do.  Here’s my son in his favourite position in front of the TV!

Harvest – this is some of the harvest from my own garden.

September 2011 065

A pile of things – too much choice for this one – there are so many piles of things in my house! especially when I’m crafting!  so here’s one pile of my crafty stash shoved in a corner in the dining room  because I’m using it whilst making Christmas cards and don’t want to have to keep running up and down the stairs for it!

Your desk/workspace – my messy computer desk – with supper in place, remote on hand and of course my Donny Osmond photo with me and my sis with him when we went to the meet and greet which I have as my background on my computer.

A public telephone box – sorry it’s a modern one – I wasn’t cheeky enough to go across the road and ask a neighbour if I could photograph the one they have in their back garden which has been turned into a WC!  They have a shed in their garden which the guy and his mates use as a drinking den and she got sick of them traipsing through the house to use the loo!  I remember them having the phone box lifted by crane into their garden.  This phone box is by the school wear I work and the glass is broken in it – I wouldn’t be surprised to find that the phone itself doesn’t even work!

Something taller than you – well there really isn’t much that isn’t!  I took a photo of our floor lamp – it’s one of those mother and child ones where it has the reading lamp on it.

Apples – I was given these apples by a friend to make apple sauce.

September 2011 001

A road sign – one on the way back from work advising of a low bridge for high vehicles.

September 2011 063

And last but not least a view from above which is just a view from my bedroom window of our back garden – fortunately I had done a tidy up!

There you have it folks – my photos for September – now I must pop by Kath’s blog to get the October list.

  1. See, the difference between me and you is, I WOULD have asked the neighbor if I could take a photo! Ha! Since beginning to blog, I've found myself a little...uhhh...bold? Obnoxious? Pushy? No...just "eccentric" and "persistent". LOL Anyway, Love your entries this month; congrats on getting an entry for all of them! I was short two; never did find a phone booth. By the way...you should go back to Kathy's blog and put our blog address in again, as the link doesn't seem to want to work! Of course, I found you anyway, but...I'm persistent, remember???

    Have a great week!

  3. You've taken some great photos - I struggled with back to school and football and forgot the bag contents till the last day - the October list list looks ok, I think:)

  4. I love the first photo of your bag. Cliff looks like he's peeping through a doorway or something!

  5. I found the last list hard, I wasn't inspired by it! October's looks better. I didn't find your photos boring at all, well done!
